2011, Buh-Bye!

edited May 2012 in General Chat
To the tune of "My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean".

2011 was hairy,
A year unlike any we've seen.
There were Schweddy Balls from Ben & Jerry,
And a warlock assassin named Sheen! (Winning!)

Lohan! Strauss-Kahn!
Mitt Romney, Rick Perry and Cain!
("Three 9's!")
Big trials! Love childs!
2011, bye-bye!

The S&P blew up our rating.
The job market stayed in a slump. (A slump!)
The debt ceiling kept us debating,
While Weiner just tweeted his junk!

Tax more! Class war!
"I nearly got hit with a pie."
("That's mine!")
Health threats! Greek debts!
2011, buh-bye!

The whole Arab world was rebelling.
So long, Muammar Gaddafi!
While soldiers were asking and telling...
[Bert & Ernie:] "We told the whole world we're not gay!"
We finally took out bin Laden.
Japan had one hell of a year. (A year!)
There were riots in Britain: "All rotten!"
[Harold Camping:] "The Rapture!"
[2012 "Seer":] "Not yet, but it's near." (Next year!)

Got hitched, got ditched!
Got knocked up; went bankrupt;
[Netflix:] "We unsubscribed!"
Hairspray! "Friday"!
2011, buh-bye!

There were Occupy Wall Street protesters,
And folks who will surely be missed.
Falling satellites! Panicked investors!
There's just way too much left to list! (To list!)

Quakes! Crimes! New signs!
Loose lions and tigers and bears!
(Oh my!)
Let's cheer the new year!
2011,
You're ending, thank heaven!
2011, BUH-BYE!!!

    I hated 2011. Good riddance. I guess I got engaged, so it didn't suck entirely. The rest was like one long santorum filled douche in your bowl of cereal, though.

    At least Kim Jong Il, Osama Bin Laden and Moammar Gadhaffi died. I hope it was painful for all of them.

    Maybe the Tesselator paid them a visit.

    I prefer to think it was these guys, mostly because 10 had better episodes and villains and... just... everything. Well, except companions. Amy and Rory are the best companions. Anyway, these guys:

    Funny thing is this was one of the most powerful villains in the series.

    I for one am glad 2011 is over this weekend. It was the most complicated, crazy year I've ever had...

    This has been one crazy year. It started off quite good, but took a sharp turn for the worst around summer. I'd say I'm glad 2011 is over if the world wasn't expected to end next year.

    Also, The Muppets rocked.

    My New Years resolution for this year was to rewrite every chapter of my novel. I got stuck at the end of chapter three of the four chapters I was supposed to rewrite.

    So close...

    I'm not particularly looking forward to 2012 because of all the crazies who will be bugging me to tell me the world is ending. At least in 2011 they were a bit quieter about it. On the bright side, I hope to have a college degree given to me in 2012 so that will be fantastic.

    It's cool. If 2012 is when we finally get a zombie apocalypse, I've got my bases covered with lotsa guns, food, and a fiancee who is a world class badass.

    I've got my bases covered with a super tasty brain. I mean, I bet I'm delicious. I'll be quite offended if I'm not.

    2012 is shaping up to be pretty shitty. I got engaged in 2011 and 2012 saw a lot of personal tragedies in my family. 2011 was way better. Oh well. At least it's not whatever year Billy Mays died. That was the worst year in human history.

    2009. I remember that. He was on Conan like the day or two before ranting about that other infomercial guy. Quite a sad year indeed.

    Indeed, 2012 has sucked major ball sack thus far. However, 'Prometheus' is forthcoming; to be followed by the end of the world. I think of it as a glorious last supper, prior to execution.

    Viva La 2012.

    I'm afraid the world can't end just yet. I still have approximately 9,700 comics to read. The invading Mayans will just have to wait their turn.

    Also I found this image:

    2012-Apocalypse.jpg

    I'm sorta confused by this, because, correct me if I'm wrong, the Mayans were long gone by the time the Spanish arrived. Though, I guess this really doesn't absolve them for not predicting light showers of conquistadors.

    The Mayan empire collapsed about 700 years before the Spanish showed up, but there were still plenty of Mayan people around for the Spanish to dispossess.

    I figured that there would be quite a few descendents, but I wasn't sure whether they still counted as Mayans.

    2012 is not the end of the calendar either.. its an end of a cycle.. their calendar does that... After 2012 a new age or era or cycle will begin.

    Also... 2011 was a better year for me too... So far 2012 has been a little more difficult.. but I hope things will ease up soon... I have some things set in motion that could make my life a little more challenging but more rewarding.

    2012 hasn't been great for me either so far, but we're only 5 months into the year. There's still 7 months for it to turn around.
  • edited May 2012
    For the record; my comment regarding 2012 being the end of the world was not intended to be taken seriously. Believe it or not, I'm not an imbecile!

    However, 'Prometheus' still rules!
  • edited May 2012
    Well, I only posted my image because it just so happened to show up on George Takei's facebook page (well, a similar one) at the precise time that this thread was resurrected. So I thought, why the hell not?

    I guess 2011 was better for me. I won a company award plaque....which is currently still wrapped in plastic behind the door to/from my room. I'm so proud.

    Fiancee's due to move in in December. Also, I have job opportunities lined up. Perhaps 2012 will save itself from my ire yet.
