  • What is the name of this decade?

    So what is it?

    The zero's??

    The 2000's....what?

    We had the sixties, the seventies, the eighties, the nineties, but it seems to me that no name lends itself easily to this decade.

    Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

        Considering how well we're doing...the 0's sounds appropriate



        2000's is commonly used at least around me.

          The 1900's were called the oughts so wouldn't this year be ought-3 (03)?

            Actually the 1900's were called the nineteen hundreds, so these would be the twenty hundreds.

              What about making up a name for this deacde?

              I like the dicketies (don't ask me why..)

              I can just se myself in 30 years, talking to my grandson:

              Back in oh-dickety-three we didn't need no stinkin' mindlink. We used mouse and keyboard, and it didn't seem odd at all, no siree

                It's the oh's.
                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
