It’s funny and horrifying to think back to the beginning of this year, when we were all having little semantic arguments about whether 2020 was technically the start of a new decade or not. (For the record, I don’t care what the official system is, the decade starts when the third digit changes, that’s just common sense.) Little did we know that a short while later we’d be having arguments about whether 2020 was technically the start of the apocalypse or not.
At least we got some funny tweets out of it?
12. Butt of the joke
Thanks, I hate it.
if 2020 were a drink it'd be colonoscopy prep

11. Isolation syndrome
It has been a year of very mixed feelings for us introverts.

10. Taste the rainbow
The only vacation I can afford anyway.
Eating tropical Skittles is the closest to a vacation I’ll be on in 2020

9. Love schedule
I’m sure our “QUICK OPEN EVERYTHING UP OH F*** CLOSE IT AGAIN” strategy will start working any minute now.
After America opens, and closes, and reopens, and re-closes, and backtracks on all the phases, and eventually reaches phase 23 where I can date recklessly again, it's over for you hoes

8. Long hair, don’t care
I’m guessing you’re wrong but a man can hope.
Maybe 2020 will turn out to be like a mullet and we’re just in the business part right now but the second half will be all party

7. Busy busy busy
Panic attacks burn a lot of calories too, it turns out.
I was worried about being bored during quarantine but losing your mind is actually very time consuming

6. Corn-n-tine
I’ll never take the little things for granted again.

5. Sweet release
I found myself thinking the other day “Can’t wait for the Fall so this mask isn’t so hot.”

4. Cancelled activities
Just because they were stupid doesn’t mean they weren’t plans.
other people in 2020: COVID sucks, I was supposed to get married and buy a house this summer
me in 2020: COVID sucks, I was supposed to be drunk on a roof this summer

3. Beat the devil out of it
The gentlest among us have their limits.
Even Bob Ross would be like “let’s paint some happy little trees and set them on fire” right now.

2. Safety from numbers
If ya’ll screw me over on this, so help me…
If I get Coronavirus I would be fkn pissed because I literally don’t leave my house or see anyone and I only have like 3 friends who I also avoid.

2. Cursed monkey paw
It sounds like paradise until you can’t leave.
Me, rubs lamp to summon a genie: Hi Genie, I wish I could have more free time to stay at home and just drink, cook, eat, watch tv, masturbate, and just watch Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ all day
Genie: got you
Me: OH FUCK, NOT LIKE THIS!!!

1. A new low
The plot twists in this movie are getting out of control.
Seal that cave back up and walk away!!! This is NOT the year, man. https://t.co/oTNMTVZ8Po

Eventually this year will fade away with all its horrors, but we’ll still have these funny tweets. So that’s…something? I guess?
What’s the best and/or worst part about 2020?
