You're all thinking too linear. A decade is an imposed construct insufficient to explain the complexities occuring in a pre-determined area and set of people.

Furthermore, after definition and gradual acceptance any such "decade" is reenacted and revisited, talked about and explored seemingly endlessly - making them, in effect, timeless.

You should have slapped her in the face for being so foolish, Angela.
I was going to say that your mom is full of SHIT, but this sums it up just as well.

A decade called the "somethingties" should refer to the years that have "somethingty" in their name. Simple as that.
