it seems strange to me that i've learned this in 2010, because it would've been very useful in the decade that just passed.
apparently... the decade 2000-2009 is referred to as "the aughties". aught meaning "zero". it's currently in the "open dictionary" which is a dictionary for up-and-coming words that will soon graduate into the regular dictionary. for some reason i feel a great deal of peace to have learned this tidbit. it has plagued my mind for the last 15 years.
we used to wait.
