So, I was looking at an article today (cause I have so much time on my hands to read these last couple days...) and I came across one asking what should we call the current decade... 1980-1989 is the 80s, 1990-1999 is the 90s... But what should we call 2000-2009?
Any ideas?
The Pre-tens?
Yes, I suck. :)
The Noughties of course - thats what they have named it here.

Would that be same as the Zeroes?
Yes - it's a play on words as it has a double meaning. Think how much fun you can have asking someone if they were naughty in the noughties ;)
Yeah, but The Naughties sounds a bit too much like the 90s... And I personally think the 80s were a bit naughtier than this last decade... :drunken:
I personally think just "the Os" (as in the Oh-s) sounds best. You know, "back in the Os when I first moved to Japan..."
I was gonna say "the zeroes" LOL. So the "O"s is kinda like that.. cool :)
Well as they say about the sixties, if you remember it, you can't have been doing it ;)
