2005 changed how we consume everything. While the first video “Me at the zoo” was being uploaded to YouTube, we were all busy learning the “Dunder Mifflin” way of life. It was the year of the Xbox 360, the launch of Guitar Hero (making us all feel like rockstars in our living rooms), and the epic conclusion of the Star Wars prequel trilogy. These puns are as viral as an early internet video and as persistent as a salesman of the month.
