I agree - twenty ten.

I like the ski jump and that event where they go headfirst down the bobsleigh course on a baking tray.

How about 'two-aught-one-aught'? ::lol:: (it always amuses me when 'old timers' use the word 'aught' for zero).

I'm sure I'll say 'twenty ten' like the rest of the lazy fuckers.

How about 'ZOLO'? (z0l0)

nvm.

No one is saying "oh-ten" dipshit, some of us are saying "twenty ten" not "twenty oh ten".

Jesus.

Who's saying that?

I guess it would make the same amount of sense as people saying 'aught-nine' for 1909. People tend to 'assume' that folks understand what century they are talking about.

I hear it in car ads on the radio and TV. But car salesmen and dealers are the lowest form of huminaty that there is. No one ever accused them of being smart, just thieves.

Twenty ten is the correct way of saying it for the same reason people in 1910 said "nineteen ten" and not "one thousand nine hundred and ten".

thats bullshit, start at 1 and count if your stupid ass can to two thousand and ten and see how its said moron.

the number represents a number of individual years.

do you know when they started counting? do you know what historical event that the date today represents in history?

of course you don't you're a moron.86
