This content is from 2000s and was tragically deleted in January of 2007. I tihnk it needs to be reinserted but I don't know where yet. Perhaps I should write an essay called wikipedia: Orphaned content. MPS 21:08, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
- Fashion becomes less grungy and more excessive.
- The wearing of G-strings among young woman, popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s, becomes less popular by 2005. However, by 2006 and early 2007 they are increasingly popular for youth and those who do not wear them are considered to be wearing "Granny-panties."
- The center of the lower back becomes a common placement for tattoos among young women.
- The "Baggy Jeans" craze of the 1990s (mostly with young males) remains commonplace in the beginning part of the decade, but becomes less popular circa 2002. Tighter fitting jeans become more popular and mainstream.
- Longer hair among young males becomes much more mainstream, and is no longer considered just a "skater"/alternative look.
- 1980s fashion revival: For girls and women large/chunky jewellery, originally popular in the 1980s and early 1990s, return to style circa 2002. Leggings worn with shirts and/or mini-skirt became a trend circa 2005. Upturned collars on tennis shirts become popular among the youth as well. Some boys begin to wear pink, and the mohawk makes a comeback, becoming more mainstream and less of an alternative trend, as it was during the 1990s. Wearing high-heeled boots, specifically tucking one's slacks into them, becomes a popular trend among young women. Layered clothing becomes popular, especially with women's shirts; ruffled skirts also become a trend.
- Pinstriped button up shirts, striped polo shirts over T-shirts, blazers, and layers of brightly colored sweaters are popular styles of fashion among young males. The trend was made popular by artists such as Usher and Kanye West in the mid 2000s. This look may be considered being an alternative form of the "prep" look
- While straight hair on women still remains fashionable in the 2000s, as it did in the 1990s, wavy and curly hair becomes more widely accepted (especially in the mid-2000s).
- Trucker hats, usually made by the Von Dutch company and commonly worn by celebrities such as Ashton Kutcher, become popular in 2003. The trend, however, falls out of favor circa 2005.
- Ugg boots, a boot commonly made with sheepskin in Australia and New Zealand, become popular and fashionable in 2003.
- Wearing baseball caps backwards, common during the 1990s, becomes less prevalent, with many wearing them sideways or forwards.
- The Bohemian look, popularized by celebrities such as Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and Lindsay Lohan in the mid 2000s, becomes mainsream.
- As a reaction to the ongoing War on Terrorism, many fashion designers attempt to introduce a more dressed, romantic and conservative notion to their designs, due to people of the 2000s perceiving unrestful and war-ridden times around the globe. By 2004 or 2005, trends move away from focus on "sexy" to "romantic" or "proper". The styles closely resemble adult fashion of the 1940s to 1970s, but with a slimmer silhouette. Clothing such as thongs and low-rise jeans fall out of favor, while high-waist jeans becomes increasingly popular, along with knitwear, tweed, cardigans, skirts, trench coats, pea coats, blazers, ties and other clothing signalling a more graceful approach than the more sexy and bohemian look during the earlier parts of the decade.
- Fad diets such as Atkins and low carb diets are popular during the early '00s, but fall out of favor circa 2004 in favor of diets heavy in whole grain foods.
- Slang words and catch phrases used often in 2000s America include "retarded", "gay", "crunk", "Bob Saget!" "Ballin!" "like," "blonde" "wanksta", "whateva", "totally", "bringing SexyBack", "seriously", "tight", "snap", "Git-R-Done", "hell yeah", "sick", "sweet", "beyotch", "you're fired","straight", "spiffy", "far out", "peace", "Rock on!", "let it be", "take a slow ride man", "you gonna hit that", "you cool man", "pwnage", "emo", "noob", "Über", "leet", and "word up". Many of them have roots from the 1980s and 1990s, such as the word "totally". 1990s hip-hop slang such as the words "yo", "homie", and "chill" still remains popular in the middle 2000s. A lot of slang from gaming and the internet that were less well-known become popular, such as "Noob", "Pwn" and "Owned". Also, Internet slang becomes more mainstream and even more popular across the Internet as use of social networking sites and instant messaging grows dramatically. These include "omg", "brb", "lol", "rotflol", "wtf?", Leetspeak, and their variants, as well as abbreviations for many different phrases.
- Owning or having a cell phone becomes prevalent among teenagers and preteens from many different economic and social classes as opposed to the 1980s and 1990s, when they were seen mainly as a symbol of someone with great wealth. Payphone use declined dramatically because of this. In 2006, 2007 the Razr by numerous companies is most popular among youth and adults alike. T-Mobile Sidekicks are popular yet unaffordable for many.
- MP3 players, particularly the iPod (introduced in 2001), become very common as they become more powerful and easier to use. By 2006, over 1 billion songs had been downloaded by customers onto their iPods using Apple's music management software iTunes and the iTunes Music Store.
- Generation Y supplants Gen X as current youth generation.
- Poker becomes a craze, as many Americans are enticed by online poker rooms and games with their friends and neighbors. The World Series of Poker aired on ESPN becomes a huge success.
- Argyle is more commonly worn in the US.
Europe
- In Eastern Germany and other ex-Communist countries there was for a short time a growth in nostalgia for former Communist times (Ostalgie) (2002).
- Because of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the politics of U.S. president George W. Bush, there has been a surge of anti-Americanism, especially in Western Europe.
- From early in the decade, mobile phones are largely seen as a necessary accessory, even for the majority of children as young as 10 years old. Ownership approaches 100% of the population in most Western European countries.
- Fashion and cosmetic surgery become more mainstream; an increase in interest is most notable in men, influenced by fashion-conscious celebrities such as David Beckham.
- Chav culture in the United Kingdom becomes a significant fashion/lifestyle choice, especially amongst those in the working class.
- Formal wear such as sun dresses and evening gowns become more popular amongst the younger generations in Europe, especially in the latter part of the decade.
- Clothing origially from the 1980s become popular, including chunky plastic jewelery, leggings (known as footless tights), ankle boots, legwarmers, 50s colours and patterns (like polka dots) and the stiletto heel.
Music
In the world as a whole music genres like Hip-Hop, R&B and Rock are the most popular in this decade.
United States and Canada
- Hip-Hop becomes the most popular musical genre with American youth, replacing rock and roll. Artists such as Kanye West, Outkast, Lil Jon, 50 Cent, Nelly, and Eminem were the dominant hip-hop artists that defined the hip-hop genre in this decade thus far. Also Eminem looks set to become the best selling music artist of the decade selling around 80 million albums by the end of 2006. Distinct regional differences also developed outside the hip-hop/rap strongholds of the 90s, New York City and Los Angeles; while the southern scenes, particularly Atlanta, emerged "crunk" hip-hop, the upper midwest, especially Chicago and Detroit became nationally recognized scenes for more socially conscious hip hop/rap artists, such as Kanye West, Eminem, Lupe Fiasco, and Common. Eminem is the best-selling artist so far this decade, and has sold over 80 million albums worldwide.
- R&B continues to be popular. Artist such as Usher, Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé, Mariah Carey and Alicia Keys are all popular mainstream R&B artist in the 2000s. The style is sometimes fueled by combination with Rap or hip-hop beats. Pop R&B, along with Hip Hop, dominates mainstream music in the earlier part of the mid '00s. Neo-soul is also popular during the early part of the decade.
-
Rock has remained fairly popular, despite the increasing popularity of hip-hop and rap music.
- The popularity of nu metal music carried over from the late 1990s. Limp Bizkit continues to produce hits early in the decade, but faded from the scene after about 2003, while KoЯn only increased in popularity, and continues to produce hits from its latest album, See You on the Other Side (2005). Papa Roach and Linkin Park were introduced to the nu metal scene near the beginning of the decade, with both becoming instant hits with their debut albums ( Infest and Hybrid Theory respectively), both in 2000. Both have since waned in popularity, along with nu metal as a whole.

xbox 360 gamescore Advice
I see achievements as an extension of this. Need for Speed Most Wanted: You earn all 1000 by simply playing through the game. KOTOR is great and a must have in any Xbox collection.Here is a listing of the best and worst Xbox 360 games for improving your gamerscore. The pseudo real-time / turn based gameplay flows at a great pace that always keeps you in the game so you feel like you are in control rather than just watching like in, say, Final Fantasy. Fighting games, racing games, and FPS are great at constantly rewarding you with new trinkets and characters and stuff. Marvel Ultimate Alliance: Very easy, just play through the game. The simplest thing to do is to just slow down.I see a lot of people turning off the assists before they are really ready to move on, though, seemingly to impress folks on the internet with their supposed driving skill and undoubtedly to stroke their own ego, but then they crash a lot and struggle and get frustrated. Project Gotham Racing 3: You earn most of them just by playing the game and collecting cars. Can be difficult. King Kong: You get all 1000 just by playing through the game. Bomberman: Act Zero: Easy to earn, but the game is pretty much horrible. Not worth it. You’ll be able to brake later and get on the gas earlier and go through the corner faster than they can. The list of good games continues on page 2. Killing too many people or setting off an alarm is no longer "game over" and the experience is absolutely more fun now. Top Spin 2: Most of the points are earned in single-player. Guitar Hero III: Increased game difficulty mixed with challenging achievements make this one feel like work. You might think you are clever if you can trick a noob into buying your prize car, but in reality you are just a jerk. Keep in mind that it has an “M” rating and it definitely isn’t for little kids, but for all of us big kids, San Andreas is a must own Xbox title. You might think you are going slower this way, but I can guarantee you that you’ll end up with better lap times. Very underrated game that is highly recommended. Incredibly deep customization combines with gorgeous graphics and sharp simulation style gameplay to create a racing experience unlike anything else on Xbox. Achievements for beating each level without dying are hard, but not impossible. Here is a list of the best and worst games for improving your score. Call of Duty 2: The majority
