Every year there is a cycle with certain things. First, something happens and people make a joke out of it. Then, we emerge our lives in said things and find humor, style, or fun in them. Finally, the trend ends and then we look back and wonder why the hell we did it in the first place. These are called “Stupid things that we think are a good idea at the time and then look back and wonder why we were so dumb.” This happens every year with a variety of things whether it be memes, fashion, celebrities, music, pop culture, the list goes on. In 2016, there was an unnecessary amount of stupid shit that people thought would be a good idea. In 2017, please for the love of God leave these things out:
1. Harambe
A gorilla was killed because a young boy fell into the exhibit. It was an actual issue for a couple of days and then people used it as an excuse to flash people. Please, please stop talking about this damn gorilla. rip.
2. Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna
Please just stick to making socks.
3. The Mannequin Challenge
Now that I think of it, who created the first one? Who decided to play Black Beatles and stand still around a room. I am so confused? Also, why are these amusing; everyone stands still it’s not like you should be expecting something different to happen.
4. Bella Thorne
Bella, I’m not really sure what you did but I asked my friends what should be left in 2016 and 3/3 of them said you. Sorry about it.
5. "Closer" by The Chainsmokers
Headbanger for a week
6. JuJu on that beat
It’s catchy but it’s embarrassing to watch people. I’m just trying to watch out for y’all.
7. Dog filter
It’s only cute on babies.
8. Timberland Heels
Just wear heels or just wear the boots! I do not get it.
9. Toothbrush Song
Again, catchy but after the first time and you actually listen to the lyrics you are so confused on how this was actually produced.
10. “It’s Lit”
We are all guilty, admit it.
11. Toxi Lahren
Please for the love of God. Please, please, please knock this girl off the face of the earth. My ears deserve better.
