I looked on the website for the most popular females names of all time, do you agree with this list?

I believe the pre-Obama era, up until around 2007 was a decent time. Some may say earlier times were even better, and I cannot say I disagree, but I believe these were the last times when people were more down to earth, less absorbed in the Politically Correct (PC) culture (which ran rampant during the Obama years), and were more motivated and optimistic for success.

It could have been because I was still wearing rose colored glasses and I was still rather naive and a kid, considering these years were my elementary school and preteen years. My adolescent years were rough and plagued with severe mental illness. My adulthood years introduced nightmarish situations of their own.

My favorite childhood year was 2004. My parents were more financially sound, I had my best friend at the time named Nick, and the cartoons were good. I could balance technology and playing outside. Kids still went trick or treating and played outside. I rode my bike around and played on my GameCube. I enjoyed my Crash Bandicoot Wrath of the Cortex and Zelda windwaker. My imagination ran wild and I could enjoy the simpler things, even just playing in the backyard and building "ponds" and trenches.

Today, everyone is buried in their phones. People are harsh, tempermental, greedy, tired, lonely, and antisocial. Everyone is beaten down with politics, inflation, and financial burden. People seem to lack empathy and compassion. Corporate greed is insane. People don't take pride in their work. It is sad what we have become.
