E3 Booth Babes Were Better

We used to have booth babes. Hot women had an outlet for modeling that wasn’t OnlyFans. This is what life was like in the before times. Hot girls could go to E3 or stand next to Japanese import cars. This is what they took from us. This is how wholesome things were. In honor of the earnings call, here's an embarrassing photo of 18 year old me with "Dawn the NVidia fairy" at E3 2003

A social media screenshot shows a young man posing beside a woman dressed as a fairy at E3 2003. The post nostalgically jokes about the era of convention booth models and Japanese import cars, contrasting it with modern online platforms and claiming that the past was more wholesome. It is used as an ironic reaction to complaints about cultural change and nostalgia for the early 2000s.
