What's the official name of this decade?

"What's the official name of this decade?" was a serious business that occurred toward the end of the first decade of the year 2000, caused by people's indecisiveness with coming up with the "official" not so lame, catchy label before end of the year 2009.

Several contenders that arose:

The New Millennium
The Bush Years (accompanied by facepalm micro)
The Naughties
The Naughts
The Oughts
The Singles
The Zeros
The Ohs
What's the official name of this decade? Besides "The Naughties"?

I bet my wallet that the people reading this in a few years will be calling this decade The Twenty Hundreds. Just sayin'.

name calling

Believe it or not this actually results in murder. Some people honestly have a weakness to names and are physically hurt by them. People will not only be willing to hurt you, but willing to eventually kill you if you continue to call them names and/or say stuff about them.

This comes from the aspect of pride where you shouldn't tolerate things people do to you that you don't like. But when there goal is obviously just to make you mad, by getting mad it gives them what they want. The only way your gonna let some words bother you that much is if you have low self esteem

Now last time I checked the only force that words have come from the air pressure that leaves your mouth. How badly you let names bother you is YOUR fault. There is no command someone can say that will make you automatically attack them against your will. People seriously try to justify attacking somebody or vandalizing there property, or even irrelevant violence because they were called names.

When are people gonna realize that it's not what they call you it's what you answer to?
Name calling is involved in 67% of murders in the United States
