2014 was a pretty packed year. So I'd like to a minute just to sit right here and tell you a bit about the some of the highlights of our year. ISIS They're the new terrorist group on the loose pulling hardcore shit that even the Taliban and Al-Quaeda are kind of like: "Damn." This year they terrified us with a slew of deaths and video threats The Ice Bucket Challenge Chances are you either did the challenge, donated money to fight ALS or simply watched everyone get ice poured on themselves. Although I loved watching celebs compete for the best Ice Bucket Challenge, the challenge itself helped raise millions!!! (ALS is Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease) These Hoes Ain't Loyal Be it in a vine, on the radio, or in a meme you've heard this phrase. Thank Breezy's "Loyal" one the catchiest songs of 2014. But seriously, these hoes ain't loyal. Cuz where dey at doe? (See what I did there?) Bout a Week Ago Once again thank vine for bringing us the rise of Hot Nigga and the Smhurda dance. Think twice before mentioning anything that happened "a week ago." Can't say I didn't warn ya. Bae Some words sneak up on us when we least expect them. Remember Bootylicious? This year's word was "BAE" Supposedly meaning "before anyone else" it's basically the lazy man's "babe" Ass Drop Not the Wiz Khalifa song, but the Ass Movement of 2014. Kim's #BreakTheInternet which solidified that America is now an ass country. Not to mention the collection of ass songs that came out this year. Big booty and thick thighs were in, and we all started squatting. #AlexFromTarget He scanned my items when no one else would Reminding us all that fame can be easily achieved if one is hot and loved my hormone crazed preteen girls. #TwitterFamousin5 Ebola Back to the serious stuff. Jokes aside, the Ebola outbreak has to be the worst thing that's happened in a while, even though many Americans were unaware of its existence until it reached our very shores. Obamanation Read as a play on abomination. The Obama hate this year has been strong and the man cannot catch a break for various reasons. Worse yet for poor Barack, mid-term elections rektd the Dems and ushered in the return of the Republicans, which is basically the final nail in his coffin. #LetItGo Dear Idina Menzel your voice is gold and you stole the hearts of children and adults alike this year. Although I'm pretty sure this came out last year, the Frozen craze lasted throughout the year pissing off half the country and making the other half swoon. Oh well, the song never bothered me anyway. Bend Gate Yep, the i-Phone 6 came out and all the apple lovers (myself included) rejoiced. Samsung released commercials mocking our loyalty and then the worst thing in ages happened our phones became transformers. I paid for a Phone not a contortionist Apple! Cloud Nudes More shame for Apple. This year after some internet creep with expert scrounging skills leaked the nudes of our favorite celebs many fingers pointed the blame at Apple's iCloud. Sadly even more fingers were pointed at the victims causing many women everywhere to say enough is enough: releasing private nudes is an invasion of privacy. Taylor Swift 2.0 Forever labeled as the gift with a 100 boyfriends and bad dance skills, Taylor has heard the negativity and shaken the haters off. Not only that but she's shaken of her country facade and abandoned sad songs about boys. You go Tay! I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream Ferguson Following the wake of Trayvon Martin another case was brought alive: The Death of Mike Brown, causing already heated racial tensions intensify. Although their was much confusion surrounding the death of Mike Brown and the deaths, robberies, and riots in Ferguson were uncalled for the more viable case of Eric Garner shows us that all is not well racially in American. Tinder I'm aware that this came out in 2012, but tinder has really taken off this year and honestly nothing makes me laugh harder than bad tinder pick up lines BTW! Remember when in doubt kids repeat after me: "I am legally blind." Did I miss anything? Lemme know down below.
I actually really really enjoyed this. Well done. Although I feel the Michelle Obama vines deserve some praise Turnip for what? Taylor Swift is bae <3 breaking records. Oh, I feel like selfies really took off this year. But first, Lemme take a selfie
Omg yaaaasss. ? Can't believe I forgot about selfies. There was even show about Selfies called "Selfie" ? my bad.
