  • Wow, this actually worked!

    Sorry if it seems like I haven't posted in a while - there were some federation issues with lemmy.ml and lemm.ee, but if you can read this post, then it seems like it's fixed now!

    In case this happens again, I've registered an account with lemm.ee so I can post here natively.

    While "Wicked" is the first of a two-part adaptation, Universal decided to downplay the Part One nature of the film in its marketing.

  • Why?
  • Alr-text:

    Did you base the saucer shape on pop culture depictions of aliens, or was that stuff based on your ships? Does the rotational symmetry help with ... hey, where are you going?

    At what point do you stop calling the years "two thousand and X" and start calling them "twenty X"?

    Throughout my life, I've always heard people refer to the early 21st century years as "two thousand and X". For example, they pronounced 2001 as "two thousand and one". In my experience, during the mid-2010s there seemed to be a shift in the way people said it, and the first time I heard someone say it differently was in 2016, where they pronounced it as "twenty sixteen".

    Most people I've heard pronounced the late-2010s years as "two thousand and X", although the pronunciation "twenty X" had started to catch on fast. By the year 2020, almost nobody used the "two thousand and X" pronunciation, except for very old people I knew. For example, most people would pronounce 2024 as "twenty twenty-four" and not "two thousand and twenty-four".

    My question is: what year is the cutoff date for pronouncing the early 21st century years as "two thousand and X?" I've always heard people say it that way prior to 2016, I've never heard someone pronounce, say, 2007 as "twenty oh seven".

    I hope I was able to properly articulate what I'm trying to say.
