Sent this out circa 1130: Well, I finally had it with the tards who think we are starting a new decade. Look, zero is a point, a transition. It has NO value. There was never a collection of 365 days that, when ended, was called “Year Zero”. Correspondingly, 10 has value and rightly ends where “eleven” starts. The decade of the “twenties” begins at the transition point midnight 31DEC2020/01JAN2021, approximately 365 days from today (leap year...). That is all. My Christian history professor thanks you.

A modest proposal for 2020

“Well, I finally had it with the tards who think we are starting a new decade.”

I’m 70, and people have made this gripe as long as I can remember (6 decades), to no effect. It’s one of those things that’s correct but only OCD people gave a damn, apparently.
