hello! just wanted to catch a couple of your thoughts. if jackie, hyde, kelso, donna, eric, and fez lived in 2017, what type of phone & type of case, wallpaper, etc. do you think they would have? i think it's always fun to do these!😊💜

Omg, I’m shamefully late to this, I’m so sorry!

Uhhh…… huh. Hmmmm……………………………………..okay, so I don’t know what kind of phones they’d have (smartphones? you mean Apple vs. Samsung? like I don’t even know) but I can try and take a stab at who they might be in a 2017 setting:

(Same age as they are on the show, I’m assuming?)

Eric would be a programming nerd who in 9th grade wrote an app to catalog his massive collection of vintage comics and and first edition action figures. He’d be infamous on tumblr for how hostile he was in the fandom pre-FA insisting that the new trilogy could never match the brilliance of the original (DO YOU PEOPLE EVEN REMEMBER THE PHANTOM MENACE?!!?!?!?) when in reality he flailed about how great the movie was for months. (And, because 2017 Eric should still be accidentally shipping family members with each other, he’s secretly a Luke/Rey shipper.)

Donna wants to study journalism when she gets into college and has been running a blog at hotdonna.wordpress.org since she was 14 on which she writes passionately about feminism, politics, and vegan baking. She loves Orange is the New Black, but ironically can’t stand Alex.

Hyde is a libertarian hipster who believes in classical liberalism, the free market, and of course the legalization of recreational marajuana. His favorite band is Radiohead, closely followed by Grizzly Bear, and Foals. He binge-watched Ancient Aliens one night on Netflix and now he he rants about the pyramids of Giza every time they have a circle.

Jackie is instagram famous, regaling her followers with perfectly seasonal OOTDs and selfies of her and Hyde (usually taken before he’s registered that she has her phone out). She briefly branched out into promoting men’s skincare when she bragged about the Aesop neroli shaving serum she bought for Hyde for Christmas (”because it’s like making out with carpet!”) before he threatened to stop using it if she didn’t take it down.

If Kelso back in 1977 thought Point Place was too small, then Kelso in 2017 knows it is. There are 34 chicks on Tinder in that town, and he’s slept with all of them.

Fez gives himself carpel tunnel syndrome because he can’t stop swiping right.

Thanks, that was fun!

- Hyde would have no phone as an act of rebellion against the government who tries to controll us through our devices.

- Jackie would be a social media influencer with hyer own youtube channel, so she’d have a new next generation phone every other month for free, and the case would be always different, but always something sparkly and cutesy. Her background would be a photo of her and Hyde, duh.

- Kelso would have a cracked screen. He used to buy a new one every time, but he gave up cause he keeps ruining them anyways. He doesn’t “believe” in phone cases, even though everyone keeps telling him if he buys one, there’s better chances the phone won’t crack. His wallpaper is some supermodel he has a crush on.

- Eric would be really into tech stuff and want the latest Apple phone, and look down on Android as a lesser product [insert some Star Wars comparison here]. He has to work his ass of to get one because Red doesn’t spill money like that but it’d be worth it.  His phone case is shaped like Yoda, but his wallpaper is a picture of Donna .

-  Donna still has an old Android without touch screen. She only wants to make calls,texts messages, and listen to her NPR app, she doesn’t care about anything else.Eric tries to convince her to switch to Apple, but she won’t budge. Her wallpaper is default. She just doesn’t care that much.

- Fez has a latest generation phone, but has no clue how to use it. He keeps getting viruses and falling for internet scams. His friends catfish him a bunch of times. It’s a mess. His phone case is shaped like a chocolate bar. His wallpaper is a picture he accidentally took of himself and he just doesn’t know how to change it, so he keeps it.
