If you have somehow yet to realize, this whole year has been like that of a prolonged "Saturday Night Live" skit, containing to rhyme or reason for what is going on. 2016, based as to what has been going on for a little over nine months now, can easily be seen as the year where anything can happen.

For starters, look at your 2016 presidential nominees. Your options to run the United States are between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. For anyone between ages 18 and 21, you get to exercise your right to vote by either selecting former Secretary of State, Clinton, who is seen as the "cool grandma" for this presidential race, or Trump, the professional business man who has an odd obsession with construction and stamina. If you watched their first debate, you can see how immature Trump's actions were, and how doomed the U.S. could be if he were to actually be elected president. On the subject of Trump and comedy shows, a great way to look into the lives of those who are actually intending on voting for him is by watching "The Daily Show's" Jordan Klepper interview them. If anything, I still do not understand the ideals in which people, even Republicans, are able to continue supporting someone like Trump. Although, there are Republicans who are still in favor of supporting Clinton.

Also, let us not forget about Harambe, the gorilla shot down because people do not know how to watch their children. The poor gorilla has since become one of the most well-known internet memes after his death back on May 28. One day, someone belonging to the millennial generation will have to explain to their grandchildren about how the United States was so fascinated with a gorilla.

Another highlight as to how crazy things have become is the fact that rape is still something not taken seriously in this country. Brock Turner, the infamous Stanford rapist, only served three months in jail after being committed of rape charges. It is extraordinary how someone, who does something as disgusting as defiling another person in acts of sexual assault and rape, receive such lousy sentencing.

Also, if you have not noticed, the clown apocalypse is currently going on throughout the nation. To keep it short, around the country, there have been many counts of citizens spotting people dressed up in clown suits and masks, and then being chased by said clowns with dangerous objects. Last I noticed, this was not a horror or Halloween movie, meaning this type of stuff should not be happening. It may be October, but this is a still slightly scary to picture clowns causing mayhem throughout the US.

If you're interested in knowing another obscure fact that proves that this year is fairly horrific, then here you are: bees are actually on the endangered species list. If this does not concern you, here is why it should: if bees go extinct, then we will probably go down in fire just as well.

Lastly, how is it, that in 2016, the idea that wearing socks with sandals is still a formidable fashion statement. Although I have not seen it myself as often, you know that somewhere, some dad is out there going to his child's soccer game thinking that his knee high socks in his sandals is a great idea. I know that Nike's slip on sandals have become a testament to athletes everywhere, but that, in my opinion, still pushes the boundary as to whether or not it really is fashionable.

Nonetheless, this year does not seem real. The days are flying by, with no sense of time, and I am just patiently standing by waiting for Ashton Kutcher to pop up on national television to tell us all that we're "punked."
