The Noughties Bangin' Blogfest

I told you a while ago about Dave Wrote This and his brilliant idea of having The Noughties Blogfest. 

Well, Plonkers it's not too late to sign up and publish your noughties blog post.  You're supposed to post something from each year of the Noughties decade but you know me, I never stick to the rules.

After the euphoria of the Millennium, the world settled into a decade that, after a bit of dispute, came to refer to itself as the Noughties.  The name itself earns the award for the worst name for a decade ever!

Fashion

Crocs were invented and it became a world-wide phenomenon.  Yeah, those special shoes for special people.  The fugliest shoes EVAR! You don’t even have to wear shoes, trainers will do or anything that doesn’t make you look like a fucking hospital cleaner.

Ugg Boots were proof that girls only cared about looking like the yeti and loosing all the hotness they ever had.

Joke of the Noughties 

The only way Heather Mills can redeem herself now is to find Madeleine McCann.

Movies

Paris Hilton’s Sex Tape was exposed on the interwebz *snore* and the Brilliant Borat was born.

Telly

Amongst all the growing reality TV shows, the brilliant Dr Who returned to the small screen.

Environment

Arguably, the most important thing that  happened to clubbing and restaurants during the Noughties, was the smoking ban. Venues without the option of being able to provide a smoking area suffered to the point of closure and club nights were changed forever.  Talk about pissing on our battery and killing the vibe?  

Technology

2004 saw the creation of Facebook. 
In the noughties it was reported that there are more blogs in the world than people!
iPod and Kindle were born.

Music

Top Of The Pops died from lack of interest

Alicia Keyes and Dido were huge back in 2001

2005 saw Nickelback release their bangin' song Rock Star!

2003 was the release of "Elephant" by The White Stripes and Jack White killed Seven National Army at the Grammys.  His electric yowl aimed at everyone "from the Queen of England to the hounds of hell".
