    For those of you who have kids, do they say, I was born in "2"? or "9"? etc., if they are born in 2000 something?

    This is a very troubling thing to me, and I'm not even that old. It's just weird. Lots of my cousins were born around 2001-ish, and it just makes me stop and think about how far away that seems to be from the late 80s.
