I grew up in the 90s and I remember being able to truncate the year down to just 2 numbers when talking about years within the current millennium. It seems like we’re still saying twenty before every year and I’m just wondering when that will change.
Nah, I couldn’t even bring myself to say “twenty” something until 2013. Before that it was all like “two thousand and five”.
Still saying the twenty part. Not sure when that can fall away. Since I was around for the nineteens, maybe I’ll never stop.
