Historical events you wouldn't expect to happen at the same time happened at the same time. Wolves changed rivers. Snowy owls and lemmings boomed. There was a traditional 200 km speed skating race in the Netherlands. Modern architecture was or wasn't vandalism. There was one literary reference you really needed in order to understand True Detective. You could record your own cover of John Cage's 4'33". 3D gifs were totally crazy-looking.
