What decade are we in?
Everyone knows that 1980-1989 is known as "the eighty's" and 1990-1999 is known as "the ninety's", what should the current decade be reffered to as? How about next decade? The teens?

I call this decade "The Aughts." Yes, I'm a dork.
The next, either "Teens" or "The 20-teens" ed. for spelling |

I don't know, but I've decided that I'm going to call these years ought-X (sp?) instead of saying oh-X or two thousand X, like 2003 is ought-three and right now, it's ought-five.

in about 10 years, we'll just call it "the turn of the century", but, we could call it the "Pre-teens" or the "Ohs" or the "Singles" all kinds of great names.

I heard the definitive answer of what to call this decade on the BBC the other day. The Naughties. Makes sense. Sixties, Seventies, Eighties, Ninties, Naughties.
It's only taken 5 years, but I've yet to hear anything better. |

I don't know but I have to say I really miss that year 2000 bug.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I'll go with "The Naughts". I just can't bring myself to say "the naughties".
