i remember being a teenage mallrat at the time and reading about it in a newspaper. some girl walked by me and said, "i like your jacket."

it was a cloudy day out, less cars on the road than usual for a saturday. i took the trolley home and overheard some people talking about making marijuana legal in california

i don't know why i remember all of this so vividly

My dad lost his home and went insane started yelling in a rage. Traumatic.

I heard some news about banks collapsing and people losing their homes. Then the recession hit and my parents' business lost income, so that was noticeable.

I heard about it from my parents, they were really worried and on edge until around 09. We got few presents at Christmas those years.

Being poor, nothing honestly changed. You can't lose what you don't got.

i don't remember this ever being an issue on 4ch. maybe i was at the wrong boards, but still. no memory of it ever being discussed or any memes thereof

My parents were insulated by the condo construction boom in Toronto that happened at about the same time so my family didn't personally feel it. That being said it furled anti American sentiment here like a motherfucker.
