What begins tomorrow? Is it “two thousand ten” or “twenty ten”? …Shouldn’t we start getting used to saying “twenty” as the first part? We’re not still going to be saying “two thousand fifty” in 2050, right?

      Two thousand ends tonight, twenty begins tomorrow. The twenty at the front now will create a nice musical coupling with the double digits on the ass end. A mouth full of octopus baby, bathed in syrup.

      I love ‘twenty ten.’ This is going to be so dope. Everyone start saying this so it sticks. Fuck saying all of those ‘thousand’s. Can image how many hours of our lives will be saved this century by agreeing to use this convention? We are going to get so much shit done.
