2693 AUC?

1940 AD. I got tired of people saying "Hurrr I almost mistook it for BC" when I put AD next to the number, so now people have a new dating system they get to learn. :)

More personally a fan of using the Human Era calendar (making it year 12023), but seeing any other calendar system just makes me smile. I love shit like this.
