Happy New Year
And now it's time for the customary New Year post.Published 01/01/2010 at 9:00 by Gamoc
It’s New Year’s Day, which means today is the first day of both a new year and a new decade. Don’t worry, that all-consuming excitement will wear off soon enough. We’re here wishing you a happy New Year and a New Year’s dinner that is completely devoid of food poisoning and death. Oh, I’m sorry, did I ruin the mood?
We’re looking forward to writing our way into the upcoming year and decade so you can expect, er, loads of writing. The usual news and slightly odd humour will resume in due course. We’ll also have a review of Darksiders on the 8th (oooh), which you might/should be interested in reading.
For the time being, happy New Year/Decade and all that. Enjoy the awesome dinner you’re bound to be having today and don’t forget that your pants go on your legs, not your head, alright?

They’re thinking of calling it ‘the teenies’, whoever ‘they’ are, although the last decade wasn’t dubbed ‘the noughties’ until the latter stages of it. Ah, who cares…. Happy New Year all!!

The 8th is a bit late innit? (For a review of Darksiders.)
I’ve already got mine pre-ordered! Unless this is a NDA thingiemabob.
Regardless, happy Hogmanay one and all!

happy new year guys.
But, everything is relative. For example. I prefer the Roman’s New Year, which would start on 1st of March, since that’s the switch over from Winter to Spring (though I prefer to go by the equinoxes to determine the seasons), which would be a fairly arbitrary guesstimate at the beginning of nature’s year long cycle.
Likewise with it being a new decade. If 2000 and 2010 are both new decades, then that must mean that we had a year 0…. Which we didn’t, so 2001 was the start of this millennium and 2011 the next decade. But, since everything’s arbitrarily been based off the birth of some possibly fictional religious character (and if he is real, nobody really knows when his birthday or year actually was), you can, I guess, determine a decade to be any 10 years you want. In which case, Im going to go with every 7 year to be the start of my decade…
Oh, and down with the bourgeois Gregorian Calendar! The Lunar Calendar is definitely the way to go…

I don’t agree with your teory. The start of a decade can’t be year 2007, 2017, because then the first decade (since the born of christ (if he was actually real)) would have had been from year 0 (the year Christ was born, because when someone is born, they aren’t born with 1 year they’re born w/ 0 years) to year 7, and 7 minus 0 is 7, and 7 years is not a decade.
HAPPY NEW YEAR (and decade if you like) TSAians!!!

Though people think Christ was born and from then on the years started counting up, smart people actually think he was born a few years before.

Smarter people try not to pay attention to the bearded chappie at all.
