When Does "Everyone Sux But You" (2025) Take Place?
"Everyone Sux But You" is a romance graphic novel written by K. Wroten that released May 20th, 2025. So when is "Everyone Sux But You" set?
It takes place in the year:
We know this because at the end of the first chapter Carson Flynn and Ash Mars watch "The Princess Diaries" (2001) on DVD before passing out. The film released on DVD on December 18th, 2001 AD so it must be during or after December of 2001 AD. Then, a teacher gives a lesson clearly tied into the American subprime housing mortgage loan crisis, which became public in January of 2007 AD. So it must be during or after January of 2007 AD.
2008 AD

More specifically, when the main action begins with time-setting free-floating text reading, "September 2008". So presumably the story stars in September of 2008 AD.
Additionally, there’s a prologue in which we can see a banner at the girls' high school that reads "2009 CONGRATULATIONS SENIORS" so it must be within the 2009 AD calendar year at this point.
More specifically, as Carson begins writing in her journal, she dates the top: "MAY 2009", so we know it's May of 2009 AD during the prologue.
