Nobody Knows How to Pronounce 00s
Recently, I did a simply search through Google images for 00s. The first thing I noticed was my logo was the 2nd result listing. Although seeing this should make me excited this is not my point. Rather my point is how few times people actually used the 00s. The reason why nobody uses it is because they don't know how to pronounce it.
Take for instance 90s. Do a simple Google images search for the term 90s. You will notice there are way more visual examples of 90s in the results. Especially when comparing a few pages of each to each other.
The reason is more likely, that people just don't know how to pronounce the word 00s. Well, I will simply let you know now how to pronounce the word....the Unies!

Saying that oos = Unies doesn't tell anyone how to pronounce the word. Reading it one might as soon say ooh-knees. I really like the pledge and the the back story behind the term but I just don't see it catching on. The word just kinda feels like it's describing a fantasy tribe of unicorns in a video game. I know that when referring to this past decade "aughts" feels more natural but I don't like it. I've also heard different radio DJ's using it quite a bit for a few years now so I'm afraid aughts it will be.
