“I can’t wait til this jesus dude dies so we can stop counting backwards”

Not accurate (again as on this sub).
As far as I’m aware, Romans didn’t use specific years. They would actually mark the year based on which ruler or consul was in power. Also, often they would divide it based on taxing period. Since taxing periods were 15 years, they would say something like “3rd tax year of Consul Lucius Aemilius Paullus (Googling showed that he was consul on 50 BC)”.
Something like that.

What’s with the recent influx of Facebook-level unfunny “memes” that aren’t even historically accurate on this sub?

If you want to be even more silly, Christ was born 4-5 B.C.

it’s almost identical to this meme
Before common era
“What year is it?”
“704.”
703 AUC.
(edit: math was wrong)
50bc? With those helmets? I don’t think so
An old meme and a bad one. Neat!
