Take me back to September 8, 2023

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Friday, September 8, 2023. Anyone born today will have the star sign Virgo. People have "that Friday feeling" and are excited for the weekend.

Schools and colleges are starting again, and fall has officially arrived. As a result, temperatures are beginning to cool, and trees are starting to shed their leaves. In the United States, Labor Day of 2023 has recently come and passed. To many, this means that the summer is officially over. In America, the song "Rich Men North of Richmond" by Oliver Anthony Music is at the top of the singles charts, while "Vampire" by Olivia Rodrigo is the number-one song in the UK.

Joe Biden is the President of the United States, and the movie The Equalizer 3 is at the top of the box office. Rishi Sunak is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Bobby Charlton, Matthew Perry, Adam Johnson, and Henry Kissinger would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Grey's Anatomy", "The Good Doctor", "Severance", and "The Family Stallone". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II", "Sons of the Forest", "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom", and "Final Fantasy XVI". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "SpongeBob SquarePants", "Bunk'd", "The Adventures of Paddington", and "The Villains of Valley View".

Popular toys at the moment include the Xbox Series X and the PlayStation 5.
