All the reasons why 2016 needs to go ahead and end already
Goodbye
Thank the Lord, Buddha, Allah, the stars, or whatever you believe in that 2016 is finally coming to an end. We can only hope that 2017 won’t put us through as much as 2016 did because, let’s be honest, it hasn’t been a great year for pretty much anyone. So as we say “goodbye” to 2016, let’s review all the BS it put us through.
Trump ran for president
Trump won the Republican candidacy
Trump won
So pretty much just Trump in general
Mike Pence in general, too
“Dicks out for Harambe” was a thing
So was Rob and Blac Chyna
Prince died
So did David Bowie
And Muhammad Ali
And Professor Snape
And Alan Thicke
And George Michael
And Carrie Fisher
Desiigner was nominated for a Grammy
Clown invasion
The Orlando shooting
The Dallas shooting
The Charleston shooting
More police brutality
The Zika Virus
Kim got robbed and we cared
Our obsession with the Kardashians is still excessive
Especially during the Twitter war between Kim, Kanye and Taylor
Kanye went crazy… well, crazier
Brock Turner only got 6 months
He was released after 3
But apparently the judge didn’t give special treatment
“Juju on that Beat” happened
Hate crimes continued in scary numbers
Cauliflower was the new mashed potatoes… but why?
Brexit
Aleppo
Twitter shut down Vine
Facebook Live was immediately overused
Instagram live notifications won’t go away
As you can see, the world basically fell apart in 2016. That may be a little dramatic but, still, it was pretty bad. I mean, those Kermit and Arthur memes kind of helped but we still can’t wait for the year to be over. R.I.P. 2016 and welcome 2017, please be good to us.
