But everyone remembers the year 2000 as the start of the new decade/century/millennium, so facts don't matter.
I'm getting tired of that myself. I hate having to point out to people that there was no year zero, so for this to be the end of the decade, the first decade of the AD period had to be nine years long which by definition would be impossible. Like you said Jack, it's like all the idiots who thought we hit the new millennium in 2000 as opposed to 2001.
And Black Friday is what again???
Not a recognized holiday. It's just the biggest shopping day of the year. Boxing Day is actually on calendars.
Boxing day is like that for us, it's when all the new years sales start.
Okay, I've actually been curious as to what Boxing Day is. It's nice to know you guys use an actual holiday for your big shopping day as opposed to us Yanks who just go for the day after one.
