The picture is clearly far too high quality for pre-internet. Technically it could be a DSLR or something, but almost certainly this was a phone camera, so it must be fairly modern.

In what way? This photo looks like it could be both pre or post internet to me.

My bad, I meant the activity depicted in the picture (popping a wheelie to try to impress a girl) could easily be from a pre-internet time.

Hearth hand gestures + mom jeans seems pretty recent to me.

Isn’t she wearing an Apple watch?

Or other smart watch considering it has large blacked out (sleeping) screen.
Weirds me out that she’s got the watch in right hand though

If you’re left handed the right hand is the normal hand for a watch, it’s not that unusual.
Admittedly it’s less common to see anyone wearing a watch now, and there’s less of a reason to put it on your right hand now that most people don’t handwrite regularly.

The hand gesture is old as shit…

Ah I didn’t remember that. Thanks!

Mom jeans, oh so that’s what the jeans that makes your ass bigs name is, I didn’t know :-).

Right, I guess I mean I don’t see how the sentiment of wanting to show off for ladies has really changed that much post internet. To me this picture speaks more towards how motorcycles impacted simping, and I’m pretty sure that’s the whole reason motorcycles were invented.

I’m like 50/50 on that being a bracelet or an Apple Watch on her right wrist. Honestly judging by hour it’s not further down I’m going with Apple Watch.
