Decade of douche bags and dildos.

I think I’ll refer to it as 2000 – 2009.

@ragingloli The noughties as in ought or zero… genius!!!!

@Tomfafa I’ve also heard it referred to as The Nil’s for that very same reason. I’m not 100% sold on it, but I prefer it over The Aughts or The Noughties.

Except for 911, which was blocks from my house… It was great for me but… bad for just about the rest of the world…

@Austinlad Maybe not a good one since it is amateur hour at the white house now… just when the world can really use adults who are in charge.

It will be known as the decade of the Remake. (As in remade songs, movies, and television shows.)

The “What the Hell?” years.

Tomfafa, I worry there may not be ANY adults left in government.
