The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Y2K

Remember the time when we thought the world was going to end because of a computer glitch? Welcome to the Y2K, or Year 2000, scare—a story of doomsday predictions, midnight countdowns, and a bug that threatened to plunge the world into chaos. In this video, we take a deep dive into the origins of the Y2K problem, explore why people were terrified of the stroke of midnight on January 1, 2000, and uncover the truth behind what really happened.

This is a blend of humor, nostalgia, and historical insights, all wrapped in the quirky late-90s aesthetics you love. We’ll explore how governments, companies, and everyday people prepared for the unknown, why billions were spent in preparation, and what made the Y2K bug such a fascinating chapter in recent history. Buckle up for a journey into the past—one full of facts, hilarious overreactions, and the realization that maybe, just maybe, humanity loves a good scare.
