82 Classic Punny One-Liners: The 1999 Millennium’s End Edition

The world was on the edge of its seat in 1999. While Prince was finally partying like it was actually the year in his song, the rest of us were stockpiling canned beans and bottled water because of the Y2K bug. It was the peak of the Matrix hype, the summer of The Blair Witch Project, and the moment Napster started changing how we heard music forever. Amidst the chaos of the closing millennium, these puns were the ultimate survival kit.
