2019 was...difficult for many. Most were all happy it was coming to an end. Thinking 2020 would be a great new start was naive at best.
Like 3 days into the new year we almost had WWIII. I mean obviously a lot more needed to happen but the pissing contest and just general idiocy had most of us believing we were all going to die in the fiery fall out of a nuclear blast or freeze to death from the nuclear winter.
A couple weeks later Kobe Bryant dies in a freak helicopter accident along with his daughter, and nine other people. It's not WWIII but it was a WTAF Universe moment. I'm not a huge Basketball fan but I mean I know who he is and was heartbroken for the families, friends, and fans.
Then Australia was on fire. Like no really the f**king contiennt was basically burning. It had been going on for some time but seem to really take over in early 2020. I (along with everyone else, I'm sure) felt so helpless watching people and animals lose their homes. I mean I started following the Irwins to see how their Zoo was helping all the injured animals. I bought items that were donated to to relief cause. I donated to LEGIT save Australia campaigns. I mean I know we all joke about everything in Australia wanting to kill you but we still need to save it!
Moving on, we started to hear more and more about this "nothing to worry about" virus in China. The news said "its all good". But social media posts from other areas seemed to say different. Then...then news was blowing up with cases all over the world. Little onesie twosie things until *BAM* it's almost Mardi Gras and its officially here in the US and WTF is happening?!??! Then one vacation was canceled because international travel was not recommended. Then a case or 20 popped up in NOLA. Another vacay was canceled. I left my office on 3/11 not realizing I would not be returning for an indefinite amount of time. It's been over 8 weeks...
Amidst the pandemic Wildfires near Chernobyl ramped up increasing radiation readings in the area.
We had a freak hail storm. Just out of the blue f**king hail when we were supposed to have "lite showers". NO warning. NO nothing just *ping ping ping*, "Mother F**ker!!!" In one city it was the size of my fist...MY FIST! At least by me it was just tiny marbles but STILL!
The stock market crashed.
Oil went negative. IT WAS TRADING NEGATIVE!
Now we are being told there are Murder Hornets. I'm sorry...what?!?! Ah yes...a hornet....bigger than my index finger. Excuse me while I just drink Everclear, and cry in a corner. Apparently their sting hurts (alot) but they really only target Honey Bees. Oi, I like Honey Bees!
They also are predicting a more active than normal hurricane season...which that news can just f**k right off.
Seriously, who the f**k is playing Jumanji??!?!
To top it all off, people are now protesting the pandemic. I'm sorry, what....? Well technically they are protesting the SAH orders but it's basically the same because both make about the same amount of f**king sense...zero. I want things to open up too but safely and not at the cost of more lives.
Oh and apparently wearing a mask...you know to protect OTHER PEOPLE from your germy @$$ is a violation of constitutional rights or something. As in my comfort is more important than your life so f**k you. So we want to open back up but not take precautions to keep it from making a resurgence...makes sense *face palm*.
Sometimes I think we deserve $hit like this because as a whole humanity can be hella f**ked up.
Most people will say life gives them Lemons at some point in their life, and the common response is "Make Lemonade". Well I want to say I am tired of making lemonade! Why can't life give me a better 'fruit'? I hope you can learn something or at least be amused by some of the off the wall things that happen in my life. I will also post random product reviews, movie reviews, book reviews, etc...I am a random person and like to keep all my lemons in one place.
