Goodbye Aughts. Hello Teens

[Duke]

So, in a few days, we will hit the 10 year mark since the turn of the century (and the millennium). An entire decade has gone by.

Whats your opinion of the past 10. Good, bad, good for you?

 

[Coqui]

Around the middle. We've had a lot of things go bad, but a lot of things go good as well.

This decade I got married and got my son, but I've been laid off twice.

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

Ive been employed the whole time , met my wife, had a son, own a home and a harley.
I cant complain.

*Ought

aught2, ought [ɔːt]
n
a less common word for nought (zero)

 

[Syrup Beaver]

One spouse, one child (finally), one job, three motorcycles (Still have two) and six houses purchased or sold.

Only toothless hobos spell it with an 'a'.

 

[Duke]

While I got out of debt (only to go back into it), bought a house & rebuilt my relationship with my family, overall, the past 10 has been a pretty disappointing decade. While I realize it's only significant in a time measurement standpoint, I'm still going to be glad to see the '0's go.

Only toothless hobos spell it with an 'a'.

And people who hunt.

 

[Syrup Beaver]

If you are referring to .30-06, I have NEVER seen anyone spell ought with an 'a'

 

[Duke]

Not my fault your circle of influence is aught.

No, it's literal not rhetorical, therefore ought is correct once again.

 

[APRIL]

I haven't had a bad decade yet.

Of course a few bad things happened here and there, but that's life. I wouldn't change anything of the past decade. It's been awesome.

Also, I graduated in the year 2000, please don't remind me it's been 10 years since them.

I don't even know if my class has had any reunions. I wouldn't go regardless though, so it doesn't hurt my feelings.
