There’s a handful of days left in this year, in this decade, and I’m disurbed that it’s taken us this long to come up with a name for the damn thing since we love to define time and styles by decades. Salon wrote about the issue in 2004, and there’s still no resolution. When you see a lazy writer refer to this decade as “the ’00′s” in print, how would you say that? Suh a cop-out to write that without telling us how to pronounce it. While we mull this over, I highly recommend you read You AUGHT To Remember, which sums up this sad, nameless decade.
I like to call it “the ‘ands.”
