A lot of folks have been talking about their hopes that a new decade will give us some new hope, good energy, and positive changes. We could sure use it. But there are still a few things holding us back, things that are (wait for it…) WRONG! Here’s your 2009 New Year’s Eve edition:
- The $5 mocha
- New word: testiculating
- Baconnaise
- Casual, uncited references to “historical evidence” of UFOs
- Articles about taxing candy, that don’t mention taxes on soda or alcohol or cigarettes or other comfort items.
- Costa Rica’s favorite pizza
- Crawling jewelry
- VISTA jokes at the Space Needle
- Sponge Bob Burger King commercial
- Ivar’s undersea billboards hoax
- Dweeting
- Patenting something called a “shoe sock having a heart shaped pad” — and then having to sue Paris Hilton for infringement
- The number of states that allow first cousins to legally marry. (And no, all you people who teased me when I came out west, Texas is NOT on the list. But they do have “Aggies” and they can get hitched.)
- Most common search term on this blog (especially Mondays): “Tony Romo Crying”
- Polar bear plunges
- New Year’s Resolutions
- Lucky foods
- Wacky 2010 New Year’s glasses
- Did I hear you right? Dick’s balls drop at midnight… again??
Happy New Year!
