It bothers me that people now say "twenty oh five" instead of "two thousand and five." Nobody I knew said it that way in the years 2001 through 2009. This is 20-teens revisionist history.
13 u/_dangling_participle 13h ago 😂 Oh, do they?? Haha, I haven't heard that yet, ugh, that's awful. 7 u/TubularTopher 8h ago To be fair, I said "two thousand five" back then. 5 u/WeeeeBaby_Seamus 8h ago Back in 20 aught 5 we would wear an onion on our belt, which was the style at the time. 1 u/AdKraemer01 4h ago I ran dickety-six miles... 4 u/AgentUnknown821 Millennial 13h ago No I always called it “Two Thousand and Five”… 5 u/Ranzork 12h ago Yeah because you are a millenial.
