Yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot to edit the meme. But I mean… it was 2020. It was a great year! Don’t you wanna go back?

    Amateur…

    In Back to the Future, Marty traveled from 1985 to 1955.

    If that movie was made today, Marty would travel back to 1993.

      2020 is literally my favorite year.

      I got a shitty raise, asked for more, got laid off then got more money through pandemic relief than I had ever made in my life.

      I hiked over 500 miles, and over 50K ft. Saw family more often than normal, volunteered at a humane society. Built a small business. Leveraged that business into a great new career (that I’m starting to get bored with, but hey, the money is ok).

      I dated a crazy person, but the sex was fantastic.

      I figured out who my real friends were; it made it easy to let go of old relationships. Like guys, if you were waiting on an apology in 2020 and didn’t get it? That person should just be a memory of your life. You could a died, they didn’t give a fuck. Let go.

      I learned a lot.

      Aside from all the elderly and immunocompromised dying, and the occasional other freak COVID cases (like physicsgirl… fuck). 2020 was by far the best year of my life

      I’m rather certain that without some enormous unexpected influx of cash, no year in the future will ever come close.

    that makes me feel conflicted, I at the same time feel like 2050 is very close and it’s weird that it’s just as close as a date from the 20th, century, and like 2050 is the far future and I have a better grasp to 1990, but this is probably because I wasn’t alive yrt
