Just a few years ago we realized it would be 2020 soon, and that was pretty cool because, ya know, that whole 20/20 eyesight thing we’ve heard our whole lives.
We had hopes for you, too, because of old-fashioned resolutions, sure, but also because of hopes and dreams and all of the other cliches concerning what we believed possible. The idea of a new beginning is always a good mood change, but you only gave us 10 weeks, you SOB.
Ten cold, wet weeks, and then POW! A true-blue, real-life, not-just-on a cinema-screen pandemic. Stay at home! Order take-out! Pray watching the stream! Wear a mask! Keep six feet from others or die!
WTH, 2020?
OK, so, we have questions for you, and you’d better have some answers. If not, “2020” becomes an official cuss word. And yeah, we can do that.
- Think you’ve helped change people’s vote for POTUS since mid-March?
- Have you caused folks to lose friends during the past seven months because somehow this pandemic was politicized?
- Why can churches have live music but not bars?
- Why do some motorists drive alone wearing masks?
- If we ate mud pies as a kid and have gone swimming in the Ohio River, does that really make us immune to this virus?
- Did you ever think high school, college, and professional sports would take place this year?
- Will there be a flu season, or will our face coverings keep people safe from that, too?
- Why do some people walk into a business without wearing a mask even though there was a sign on the front door asking you to wear one?
- What about that second stimulus check?
- Is dating someone we don’t live with even possible right now?
- Do new romantic relationships begin with 14 days of quarantine?
- Should we really stop shaking hands?
- Think you’ll be the reason why an entire generation of stroller-bound babies will miss going to Disney World and not remember a moment of it?
- Do bats taste like chicken, too?
- Will there be Americans who are willing to get vaccinated with the first version that is released?
- Did you ever think there was a chance this many people would catch the Covid?
- Did you think the pandemic would last thing long?
- What do you think we’ve missed the most since March?
- Are you still waiting to release the murder hornets? Because I really think you missed the murder hornets.
- “Now don’t be a 2020!” … “Shut the 2020 up!” … which one do you like the most? Maybe … “
