I think people that say the year as "twenty sixteen" sound uneducated.
I know, I know. This is how it has always been, but yuck it is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
And I feel like it is only going to get worse as the years get higher than the century.
PreK teacher welcomed the class of "Twenty Thirty"...
I am prepared to have you tell me I'm wrong.
I get that weird things bother people (I have a lot of pet peeves, I get it) but why do you percieve this as a sign of being uneducated? Im stuck on that.
@justinslovo How do you say your birth year? I'm with you on not liking the sound of years in this millennium being called "twenty whatever," but when I say years from last century, I most definitely say "nineteen something." Maybe "twenty" sounds strange compared to "two thousand" because we used "two thousand" during the first decade of this millennium?
Agreed. I don't think party like its one thousand nine hundred ninety nine would have been as catchy of a song
When people are waiting for their luggage to come through at the airport they need to stand back at least a foot or two. Obviously this is an uo because folks are always crowding it and I can never see when my bag is coming and then when I do see it I have to push through to try and grab it. I don't want to steal your dumb bag, just stand back people so everyone can see! This is so minor but for some reason it bugs me.

Sneaking this in while there is still time...as of we didn't have dozens more Thursdays ahead of us.
I think it is so stupid when people participate in protests and plan to get arrested. Especially when they brag about it on social media. You are not hard core. This is not a knock against protests in general, just people who do it for cool points.
