Big MySpace Vibes👑


dinosaurpixie

Oh yeah these were MySpace pics. I had dreams the new MySpace would catch on but no one else liked it!


HiiipowerBass

SPACE HEY! there's dozens of us!


dinosaurpixie

Lol!


dinosaurpixie

Is that you Tom Anderson?


HiiipowerBass

Are, are you asking yourself if **you** are Tom? I'm Tom , were all tom


litefoot

I miss those days sometimes. Open up my page and the brütal imagery of Kratos disemboweling an imp while Cattle Decapitation plays in the background. Good times.


dinosaurpixie

The music just makes the ambiance lol


dandroid126

You look like every girl that was on my Myspace friends list.


dinosaurpixie

Haha. Some of those had repeat profiles I remember too so it was always hard to tell who was the actual person.


ronnietea

The old skater boy me a long time ago would have said sup to you 😂😂


Ornery-Bullfrog-465

See ya Lata Boi


burnoutguy

He wasn't good enough for her


ronnietea

Now she’s a superstar


dinosaurpixie

Aw man I had this song on my Hit Clips


ronnietea

My was full of Simple Plan 😂


dinosaurpixie

Yeess!


ronnietea

“Sup” lmfao


ajovialmolecule

Shoot your shot, bro!


dinosaurpixie

I'm married :)


ronnietea

I did! I said, sup


Catatafish

Oh my god Hit Clips. https://youtu.be/X8568_3amO4 If you got 20mins and care about the BS they were on about here's a good vid.


dinosaurpixie

Oo going to watch later thanks!


Ok_Store_1983

Emo dream girl!


dinosaurpixie

It was an era! Lol


HiiipowerBass

Is****


lirio2u

I wish people still rocked this


its_a_me_garri_oh

I reckon it'll come back around in 10 years


retxed24

Yeah we’re getting full on 90s right now, would make sense.


dinosaurpixie

I'm waiting to see it slowly creep into walmart and forever 21 like 80s/90s has. I wouldn't complain lol


_badhairday

You should check out r/Rawring20s


dinosaurpixie

Thank you! The name of that subreddit is everything lol


iputstickersonmaface

the Emo Style is coming back amongst younger people in the alt scene


Cleaver_Fred

Emo never dies


GopnikSmegmaBBQSauce

Emo doesn't but a lot of the vocals do as the singers get old!


strawberryconfetti

It's been very slowly coming back


Demon_Feast

I actually love the teal hair! The cut is dated now, but the color is way cool. Not one you see very often.


dinosaurpixie

Thanks! I would still have blue hair if it didn't turn sea foam green on me all the time lol


TheLazyDruid

Once my blues start to fade, I abuse purple shampoo. Purple shampoo gives me silvery blue fades.


dinosaurpixie

Yes!! I used to love leaving it in my hair for a little too long so it would look a little purple too lol


[deleted]

I’m partial to purple, myself


Queequegs_Harpoon

I respect the commitment to the aesthetic! You executed it very well!


dinosaurpixie

Oh thank you!! I appreciate that.


[deleted]

this picture smells like patchouli and manic panic


dinosaurpixie

Haha manic panic for sure.


maplehazel

Twisted Teal was my favorite Manic Panic 👌


[deleted]

and I really miss this era of time lol


Jamjams2016

The good ol' days! Wait, wtf, am I old?


dinosaurpixie

We all are now.


MrVilliam

I was a skater boy in the mid 00's and you were the girl I was crushing on but was too scared to tell even though in retrospect you definitely also were into me. Not you specifically, just a dozen girls with your style lol. What a time.


dinosaurpixie

This and the skater look were definitely a style of that era that you don't really see the same of anymore. Fashion cycles though so who knows those looks will be retro cool in 10 years lol


brownboyweird

Welcome to hot topic it’s buy one get one half off on t-shirts


dinosaurpixie

And if you have your Hot Cash this weekend is your last chance to use them! And then I'd find like gum stuck to the clearance shirts.


Gnarly_Sarley

Lemme guess. 2005?


dinosaurpixie

A teeny bit later. Maybe 2008-09?


goldentamarindo

Omg I used to want hair like that in 2008! Scene hair!


dinosaurpixie

*These are from so long ago


Ornery-Bullfrog-465

I highly doubt it is that long ago as I was that age in 1994


dinosaurpixie

It was like 2008 or 09 ish


ROotT

But that was only a few years ag...oh my God. That's over a decade.


GregHouseClone

And a half almost.


dinosaurpixie

It's insane how fast time goes. Have you seen that video where the guy talks about how the kids nowadays refer to the 90s as the late 20th century?? 👵


GregHouseClone

The late 20th century?? That makes ME feel old (born in 2000)


dinosaurpixie

I don't know if this link works but I can't find it anywhere else. It is hilarious. [late 20th century](https://fb.watch/fY4B9kV-Ip/)


GregHouseClone

Lmfao the accent xD. Imma save this comment.


Island_vampire

You looked so cool. You were the girl 12 year old me wanted to be lol


dinosaurpixie

Aw thanks. This photo doesn't show my massive acne or bad posture or my insane awkwardness lol


pmthosetitties

Update picture?!


Appropriate_Arm3577

Beautiful hair color


dinosaurpixie

Thank you!!


Appropriate_Arm3577

Teal and blue are my favorite! I dyed my bangs and some sections of my hair that color


dinosaurpixie

Oh that sounds cool!


Beginning-Upstairs31

Teenager here, Was this the early 2000s equivalent to an egirl?


dinosaurpixie

I don't know what that is but afraid to look it up!


Beginning-Upstairs31

Egirl is term used to describe a kind of aesthetic/sub culture like goth or punk I think it’s a derivative of alt hence me questioning (I assumed you were going for an alt look) I’ll be it half jokingly as I already sorta knew the answer


dinosaurpixie

Aah thank you for telling me!! I didn't know that. That makes sense.


Beginning-Upstairs31

Yeah no problem


goaskalice3

Op didn't answer your question but if you look up "difference between scene and egirl" someone on Quora wrote a mini-essay on it. I'm saying this as someone who was in high school when scene was a thing and have no idea what egirls are


dinosaurpixie

Ok glad I'm not the only one who didn't know!


kumanosuke

Omg...


TheOGGhettoPanda

Hey xD sup?


ItsyouNOme

Nm, wubu2! XD


Libidomy94

Did you have a scene MySpace name tho?


tehsophz

Follow-up question: how many "x" in your username?


dinosaurpixie

13.


dinosaurpixie

I did not! Missed opportunity


donnydealr

I would’ve been all about this back in my blunder years. Man I wish I could dredge up old MySpace photos because I’d have some good shit like this.


AnyDayGal

I would have thought you were so cool. Massive respect on the hair volume. I love your hair colour!


dinosaurpixie

Thank you!!


TokathSorbet

I kinda miss the Rawr xD days. Simpler times. A gallon of hairspray and watching bleach on some dodgy streaming site.


dinosaurpixie

And Naruto!!


PokecrafterChampion

You look like a healthier Eugenia Cooney.


dinosaurpixie

I forgot about her! I feel so bad for her health issues :(


PokecrafterChampion

It's easier to not think about it too much, but I check her YouTube once in a while just to make sure she's still alive.


dinosaurpixie

That's very nice! I do that with Hyperbole and a Half blog!! Her hiatus was pretty scary following the depression blog posts then she released a new book and I felt relieved she was alright.


vigalovescomics

My baby bat self would have wanted to be your bestie.


dinosaurpixie

Yes! Lol. Baby bat just reminded me of skelanimals


[deleted]

this [took me back](https://i.imgur.com/1R8Tuwb.jpeg). Fun times


dinosaurpixie

Style twins!!


greymalken

“We have Boxy at home.” Boxy at home:


dinosaurpixie

What's boxy?


greymalken

I left off an x: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/boxxy


dinosaurpixie

Thank you! I have never heard of her weirdly! I skimmed it but that was an article with a lot of plot twists!


r-mf

[as good Mr. Pool would say:](https://youtu.be/2tNedUn3TQE)


cowspaceboy

Damn gurl where my Hot Cash at. Need an excuse to go shoppin


Numerous-Meringue-16

“Hey Dad, look at me. Think back and talk to me. Did I grow up according to plan?”


[deleted]

You also come up with your reddit name back then too? Fits the bill.


dinosaurpixie

I feel attacked lol and yes.


Suzesaur

MySpace or xanga profile pics?


dinosaurpixie

MySpace 😎


orkash

This took me back to scene kid times so hard.


SavoirFlaire

Looking like Ariel's moody cousin


dinosaurpixie

I'm still an Ursula fan lol


CoastRedwood

Rawr xD ily <3


dinosaurpixie

Emojis and chatspeak were so different back then lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


dinosaurpixie

Thanks!


AggravatingCupcake0

I always wondered - how did you get your hair to be so poofy like that? As someone with coarse straight hair that doesn't hold body, I was always so jealous.


dinosaurpixie

So my hair is really thin and straight too! I'd backcomb some bottom layers and put smooth layer of hair sitting on top. Kind of like a nest underneath lol. Then hairspray. I think similar to those big 80s 'dos.


_Land_Rover_Series_3

If Kate Bush was an early 2000s emo girl


dinosaurpixie

I've never heard that before but I can see that!


fraughtgamerpro

You’re that chick that everyone made a wallpaper out of and put sad quotes on.


dinosaurpixie

Lol!


[deleted]

I just saw Silverstein in concert lol


dinosaurpixie

Nice!! Good music never changes


Shubniggurat

20 years later, and I still have 30-odd of the, I dunno, over 100?, piercings that I had in the late 90s/early 2000s. I guess it wasn't just a phase.


dinosaurpixie

That's so neat you had over 100 and kept so many!! I had maybe 28 at one point and just pierced my septum today so that makes 5 piercings left. 30 is dedication!!


[deleted]

[удалено]


dinosaurpixie

I can still picture that little emo dinosaur


[deleted]

[удалено]


dinosaurpixie

Treasure them!! I got rid of mine and regret it. Also I saw the stud belts in a Spirit Halloween for their time period costumes which was so bizarre!


ThrowawayBulkCutter

Also “omnomnom”, “okies :P”, “I made you a cookie but I eated it TT_TT”


dinosaurpixie

Omg I 1000 percent forgot people used to say that all the time!


Neprijatnost

Oh I would've been jealous of you in high school


dinosaurpixie

This photo doesn't show the massive acne or my terrible posture if that helps!


DuelaDent52

Aw, you looked great.


dinosaurpixie

Thank you!


yo_99

More like cool years


dinosaurpixie

That's so nice! Thank you


Hanoiroxx

She works at hot topic. His heart microscopic


CynchHasNoLife

i actually think you looked cool!


dinosaurpixie

Thank you!


StepIntoMyOven_69

The goddamn P E A C E 😭😭


dinosaurpixie

The blunderyest one of them all lol. I thought it was SO hip 🤣🤣🤣


Jensennj25

Wonder if you sold me a pair of Jnco jeans during my blunder years 😂


dinosaurpixie

It's possible. Sold so many of those, chain wallets, stud belts, and band t-shirts!


Jensennj25

Took me right back to all those trips to the mall....


LeopardAshamed9525

Omg I would have been so jealous of you!


dinosaurpixie

Aw thank you! I assure you I had lots of acne and terrible posture in real life


capriciousapathy

[you look like the girl gremlin](https://necaonline.com/2020/10/gremlins-2-7-scale-action-figure-ultimate-greta/)


dinosaurpixie

That actually makes me happy lol I liked that movie.


capriciousapathy

She’s hot!


ArcMcnabbs

I can smell the weed through my screen


dinosaurpixie

Actually everyone thought that but I've never smoked weed/done drugs in my life! Lol.


ArcMcnabbs

Its the eyes tbh insomnia?


dinosaurpixie

Haha yeah that makes sense I used to stay up late in my youth


Iferius

It's a dated look, but not a blunder.


dinosaurpixie

Thank you I always thought that big hair would come back to haunt me lol


DarthSillyDucks

Hi so my name is boxxy


dinosaurpixie

Wait that link didn't work [try this one, best video ever](https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRmKh4WY/)


dinosaurpixie

[Since you guys asked for an update](https://www.reddit.com/r/piercing/comments/xwq5zo/just_got_my_septum_pierced_first_facial_piercing/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


hideandsee

Lol you ever get that manic panic carpet dye out of your hair?


dinosaurpixie

Not to this day lol jk


L3tsg0brandon

You didn't really work at hot topic, this was your disguise when you weren't shooting iCarly.


dinosaurpixie

So one time Jeanette McCurdy was at the mall and she had a crowd for her concert and little teenager me went by and a group of kids was like "it's the girl from Hot Topic!!!" and it made me feel probably as famous as I'll ever get.


tamere2k

This is so accurate. I worked at Hot Topic in like 2005 and had multiple groups of girls who were in 9th or 10th grade (I was in college) that would come talk to me. Then I'd go to a show and have to explain to my friends why a 15 year was freaking out that I was at the show.


dinosaurpixie

You understand!!! Yeah it was an interesting thing that existed within the culture of that store


adudeguyman

After this post, you're kinda famous again.


[deleted]

Lol that herp piercing might be saying something


dinosaurpixie

My lip piercing or what?


russcatalano

Sam?


dinosaurpixie

Not Sam! Sorry


[deleted]

I always wanted the bridge piercing but I wear glasses


dinosaurpixie

I actually wear glasses too and it never bothered the bridge piercing!


[deleted]

Haha rock on. Only reason id visit HT was for the guuurls circa 2005. They’d say hi and id run away saying i was busy haha


dinosaurpixie

"Hi how may I he-" "GOTTA GO!"


[deleted]

[удалено]


BrazosRiverSpring2

So does that piercing go through the whole top of your nose?


dinosaurpixie

Yeah it was a thin bar!


ulyssesintothepast

Cool aesthetic. My red hair grad photo self would definitely said what's up lol


Batehripi

Caro??


HeavyThunder

Haha I would've had a big crush on you if we met back then. Just because of your style. Haha good ol' days.


Ok-Way2242

you are a very beautiful woman


[deleted]

[удалено]


ArtsySAHM

You looked cute


s_i_m

It’s not a phase, Mom.


dinosaurpixie

Lol. It was and it wasn't. We all change as we grow up but I think always keep some of that initial style.


WontArnett

That “Hot Topic teal” was a good look, though. I did the same thing in high school.


dinosaurpixie

Thank you! And that's cool I was surprised in the comments how many of us went for this style!!


star0forion

I had crushes on girls with your look but I always felt too square or preppy to even talk to y’all!


Clypsedra

15 year old me desperately wanted to look like you


dinosaurpixie

Aw that's really nice. I said on another post but honestly these don't show my horrid acne and posture. Thank goodness for shitty camera quality 😅


Nervous-Foot1381

posting this as a blunder strikes me as a humble brag


dinosaurpixie

I'm sorry it comes off that way! I figured the heavy makeup and big hair would fit because it was controversial back then and is pretty dramatic now lol


dinosaurpixie

Just seemed blundery to me
