2013 feels like just yesterday, and yet, it was ten years ago! Cronuts were all the rage in New York, and Hot Dog legs had taken over tumbler. We were sharing videos on Vine, and our iPhone’s were much smaller!

I took a stroll down memory lane as I checked out Buzzfeed‘s list of pop culture things that officially happened ten years ago!

If you’re ready to feel old and nostalgic, take a look at these 20 things that officially happened ten years ago!
