We need to start making the years sound cool
Yeah, I think they will be called the twenty-thirties. Maybe once we get closer to 3000, we can do it.
I wonder if in the early 1900s, people had this problem too.
You mean closer to 2100? Because we have more than 900 years to go for 3000 haha
Yes 😂
Roaring 20s, Dirty 30s incoming
I like to say “in the early century”
The rest of our generation is going to be spent cleaning up Trump’s shit.
Might as well just call it the Trump Era.
How do you say 00’s? There’s a few options, but none are universally understood when spoken. You end up saying the century as well just for that reason, even when it would be clear from context.
The 10’s come up IRL, as does that we’re in the 20s. People have been confused when someone is actually talking about the 1920’s. So, I’d say we’re good there.
I’ve heard either “the aughts” or just “the two thousands” although that one isn’t as clear.
'Noughts or “the first decade of this century” are also around. The 2000’s seems to work fairly reliably, but like you said they still might interpret it as the century, and it’s just a mouthful.
