Don't do it HaLoites

[Debit One]

Don't be the DB who calls this year "twenty ten." Don't make me fight you. If you weren't walking around calling last year "twenty oh nine" you cannot call this "twenty ten."

It is "two thousand ten."

Especially you, Taw.

[newsbreaker]

My resolution for 2010 is to listen to Debit. He is a model for us all.

[MikeyJoe]

Why? Did you call 1999 the year "one thousand, nine hundred ninety nine"?

I haven't decided yet how I'll say it, but it appears to me that it should be dictated by what is the easiest to say, not what you called the last decade.

[Mo T]

It's the year of the Tiger.

[L. Wade Childress]

no way, twenty-ten is way better and much more efficient. plus ive been doing it for years and cant change now.

[JasperDeKimmel]

It's 1431, infidels.

[Iza]

I'm pretty sure the framers had this argument.

Adams: Seventeen Seventy-Six!
Jefferson: That's gay. Seventeen hundred and seventy-six!
Franklin: Whoa. I thought they'd found out about me for a second.

[SL]

Personally, I prefer "The year of our Lord, two thousand ten". I will be using it in all of my correspondence.

I like this.

I had already decided to go with twenty ten, and let's face it, I'm a trendsetter.

I hadn't decided..........

Until now.....

twenty ten it is.

More efficient is the standard?

It would be more efficient to speak in text language, but do we do that?

Do you say LOL? Do you say BRB?

Two thousand ten. Learn it, and love it.

[Kerky]

I dare say that the great majority if not all of the 20th century was referred to in "nineteen" vernacular. Why not the 21st century? I have actually been waiting for this moment, while getting out of the awkward double zero decade to begin the "twenties".

[Costanza]

I am in the 2 thousand 10 camp. Cant get myself to say 20-10.

[danish_hawkeye]

either is better than the idiots that say two thousand AND ten

[Corporate Raider]

two-oh-one-oh

[Sambud]

Quite simply it will oh-ten.

How on earth would LOL be more efficient than laugh out loud? 3 syllables for each. Same for BRB. Pretty weak argument.

It's the year 2,000.10.
