I Don't Know How to be Sarcastic About the Past Decade

Firstly, I thought I'd never blog again because of I haven't been able to figure out how with the new layout.

And secondovly, I'm so sad I left my Ashton Kutcher Nikon  Cool Flix Camera at home today. This past weekend I went on a fun night kayak adventure. Of course, while I don't want my actual valuables to fall in the water, I was daring enough to take my aged camera along for the ride (drift?).

BUT here is my main problem with the poor little purple, blurry picture taking camera.
What am I supposed to call it in jest?

If, say, I wanted to joke about the antiquity of this 4 year old electronic I would typically refer to it as my "90s Camera" but it's so far from the 90s that I feel like an my joke is lacking. Well I guess that is not the main problem. It's the result of this, the main problem:

What do we call 2000-2010?
How can I refer to things from that time period?
There is no way to say it out loud, that is for sure.

How unfortunate, since most everything that comes out of my mouth is a quip of some sort.
I can't quip about this decade and it really bugs.
