pseydtonne | Can this decade be over already?

I went to the Daily Show web site a few minutes ago. They had a decade-in-review as the startup clip. I watched the 2000 piece -- three minutes of a significantly younger Jon Stewart. As soon as the next clip started and the number 2001 showed up, I clicked away.

Is anyone else uninterested in reflecting on the last ten years as a global or national event?

Oh sure, I've had lots of great times during them. I got laid plenty, I traveled a lot, I moved out of my home town and I make five times what I did in 1999. However, I have no desire to hear about the 9/11 decade until they invent a new kind of transportation.

That's about all I can see in my mind as I think about this decade: Bush got elected, 9/11, and then... we elected Obama but we're in a recession. At least my computer is faster and my car is really good in blizzards.

Normally I am a complete fetishizer of year-in-review crap. I'll watch those pointless specials until I forget there is actual news happening. Dang I'd punch a busload of nuns in the tits if it'd prevent any review of the Aughties.
