Which decade ...

... are we in now?

Serious question, if 2000-2009 was the noughties, is 2010-2019 the teensies, tensies, or something else?

And no, I couldn't be bothered to google. How much fun would that be?

We're in the 'decade that doesn't scan'.

In the same way the so-called 'noughties' doesn't.

'00s and '10s, rubbish.
'20s to 90s, brilliant.

I'd go with this^.

Either people have become very over-confident of their looks or so under-confident that selfie X 20 a day and then getting it 'like'-d on Facebook is extremely reassuring to them.
