What kinda bothers me is that it's really not enough to just abbreviate to '70s for example...
We really have to start denoting WHICH CENTURY we're talking about because things are lasting a lot longer.
Like I was reading Col. Sanders' 1970s drivers license that you posted the other day, and his b-day read 09-09-90, and it was referencing 1890.
Cuz at that time, in the 1970s, the 1990s was still off in the future, so if you said '90, people just assumed you meant the fucking EIGHTEEN HUNDREDDSSSS.
It's time that we clarify, cuz we just dunno how long this shit we're typing here is really gonna be around, where it's been saved, and how long those databases will exist.
I have my site saved locally obviously, but bots have been indexing the entire internet and you gotta assume whatever you share is gonna be saved in some database somewhere, and God only knows how long it's gonna persist.
