Think about this.

We called every year up until the millennium ninteen forty-five, or nineteen ninety-nine, etc. Even back during 1st millennium it was Ten-45 (1045). Why is it now...2-thousand and ten? By the way we've went the past 2,000 years it should be "Twenty-Ten"

70% of americans (cnn poll on tv) stated they think its proper/right/are going to call it "2-thousand ten", not "twenty-ten".


Yes, i'm bored.


I say Twenty-Ten.

Funny, I'm watching future fast forward and its some chick with some foreign dude talking about afghanistan/iraq, the chick said "Will we need a New World Order to resolve our problems?"

It's beginning.

ps, had to end thread with conspiracy theory

Did anybody say...
20-0-1 ?
20-0-2 ?
20-0-3 ?
20-0-4 ?
20-0-5 ?
20-0-6 ?
20-0-7 ?
20-0-8 ?
20-0-9 ?
No?

So why would it make any sense to start saying 20-10 now?
Saying 20-10 does have one less syllable than 2000-10, so obviously a lot of people will say the dates that way, but it's just because they're stupid.

People who are adding "and" while sayin any of these numbers should know that and denotes a decimal. So two thousand and ten is wrong and two thousand one hundred and one is wrong for 2101.

Twenty-ten. I'm way too damn lazy to say Two-Thousand and Ten all day long. I choose less syllables. Like water choose the path of least resistance. Ah, Bruce Lee. Move like water. Ah-ah!

I have a question...
Is this the end of the decade, and a new one has begun? Or, do we have one more year in this decade?

Think well....
