Happy New Year Morgan!

Happy New Year to everyone..

Hey, you back in Sinney, Morgan.?.

Yeah, for another week, that's all for now 

Just another night. It's not the end of the decade yet either. Fuckers need to wisen up and learn to cunt.

This fucker needs to learn to spell.

Hmm.. I've heard this a lot recently... It's like the "when did the millenium begin/end" argument..

Who cares? I don't have to say 'two 0h 0h' anymore!

Now you have to say "two oh one oh" which, in my opinion, is far harder... Alternatively you could just say twenty-ten, which (i think) is what this decade has been coined.

It's the whole "there was no year zero" thing. Not that the lack of such a year was even made as an "official" decision until who knows how many hundred years after the event. Then there's the question of whether the supposed starting point was anywhere near year 1 in the first place (if we're supposed to be counting years since the birth of Jeebus then surely Christmas should be the start of the new year... I know it's close, but it's only even in winter so they could avoid persecution by pretending they were celebrating some other pagan holiday, and then later absorb that holiday into their own as they converted people).

In short, numbering years is silly, and only useful as a way to keep track of which year happened when, relative to the other years. All this fuss over numerical milestones... if the human species had evolved with a different number of fingers we wouldn't even be counting in the same base, and it could have been year 3732 right now (taking 8 as a plausible other number of fingers).

Or the year 7DA if we managed to cram 8 digits onto each hand and learned to count in hexadecimal. I expect we'd have different symbols for numbers greater than 10 though, rather than using letters.

NOOOOO Morgan, it's twenty TEN! No more oh ohs!

And yesh SK, agree. Numbering years is silly

Who ever said "two oh oh nine"... it was "Two thousand and nine".

If people wanted I guess they could carry on with that and say "Two thousand and ten", but "Twenty ten" would fit the way we were all used to counting years (Nineteen-whatever") before we hit the 2000s and found it had an awkward feel saying "Twenty Oh Nine" (not that we don't say "nineteen oh nine" or "eighteen oh nine" or any other century-oh-nine...)

^ agree with SK's last two posts.

Twenty 10. I have no idea why it's even a debate.

Honestly.... the media is boring

I say two o o nine. Takes less time than 2 thousand and nine

And what do you do with all this time you save?

I think I can say "Two-thousand-nine" in as little time (if not less time) than "two-oh-oh-nine". Same number of syllables, fewer pauses.

Ahhh you don't say the 'and'!

'Two thousand & ten'!

And how do you say &?

Now I have to spend 3 months getting used to it.

To what? Getting the year right?

Yup

Yup

I'm surprised at how fast I've taken to 2010.

Maybe I really really like having to say less syllables...

It is definitely better than 1997 as far as syllables are concerned

Point to Kamisamanou!

And how do you say &?

'nd   

LOL!

Dek and Morgan are going for lunch! Wheeee!

Just letting y'all know, so ya know, you can start being jealous n all....

Did you bring me a doggy bag??

There was nothing left on my plate save the fork when I was done. oopsh....

Oooooo...

There was nothing left on my plate save the fork when I was done. oopsh....

She didn't eat it all, she knocked it on the floor reaching for her 3rd bottle of wine.... 

We only had good ol H2O... and Morgan can vouch for that!!

Err... Yeesshhh... Ofg coursh we olny drinked waaterrr....

*groggily wakes up from 3-day wine-induced-coma*

Few more points and I'll be a level 3 tangler

There's a point system now?

There is??

Yup. And I am a Tangler Admin too!

Oh thank goodness....

Could you deal with the spammers over in that forum? *points*
Thanks!

Sure Thing


Done. What's next

Next?

Just relax

Truthfully I was the moderator of some forums for a Canadian Artist some years back.

He didn't like me to keep things on topic, so I spent most of my time correcting spelling mistakes.

ROFL!!!

Too funny

They called 'em the Crazy Talk forums. I put a post back on topic, and he pointed at the name and said things were supposed to go off-topic if they led there.

I think that happens here a lot.

Ok ok, back on topic

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

heheheheh

Always wondered why we say Happy New Year because more often than not you get to the end of them and everyone says it's been a cunt of a year. Why not just say ... hope you have another cunt of a year.

I think ppl say that cos no one wants to own up about having a good year

Q. How many condoms can you make out of an old rubber tyre?

A. 365 if it's a good year.

hope you have another cunt of a year

Oh dear....

terrible

Hahahaha ruski - love it
