Well, I'm more likely to like my crappy ideas as deadlines approach anyway.
So I'm gonna skip the lengthy complainscusing about the time demands of my previous semester and the demonic temporal black hole that is Quantum Mechanics class, and just let you, my one reader who is probably me in the future:
I've decided what to call this frickin' decade.
The one that the media has proposed calling the 'Oughts' and that the Brits are toying with calling the 'Naughts' or the 'Naughties.'
I've decided that henceforth, no matter what anyone else says, I'm going to refer to this decade as 'The Onesies.'
I like it because it reminds me of all the new World 2.0 words that annoy the hell out of you at first, but eventually you find yourself using it (which is even more annoying.) You know, Like the word Blog. Arguably in the top-ten worst words in the English language. Right below Rectalitious.
I think the Onsies is one of those things that in context just about anyone can intuitively figure out, a lot of people will find it annoying when they first hear it, and that when you're trying to come up with a word to describe the 2000-2009 period it's the most apt-soundin' one.
Ah well, time will tell.
I hope the Teensies are a better decade.
