Weird Things That Happened in 2021
Let's talk about how strange this last year has been, well, the past couple of years have been the strangest, most uncomfortable, and unbelievable time in a hundred years. Not much has changed for me through all of this because I am a natural recluse as it is. I have decided, however, that you can't live your life stuck at home for years on end, you have to go out, plan that vacation you have been putting off, and all those good things. I guess it is time to stop living in fear despite the fact that COVID is happening, UFO's are real, and Pete Davidson is out there dating all our women! Besides COVID taking over all of our lives let us look at other bizarre things that are happening, some topics a bit fun some a bit chilling. Everything from rioters breaking into the capital to Mr. Potato head being canceled. Let's get started...
UFO's are real, government admits to secret UFO task force.
Remember how the guy from the band Blink-182 blew the damn lid off of the whole extraterrestrial life being out there thing? Tom DeLonge, an American musician, had dedicated a good portion of his life trying to tell the public UFO's are real, the government knows, and we all proceeded to laughed in his face. It wasn't until he was able to somehow get his hands on a classified video the government had of a UFO sighting recorded by an Air Force mission. Tom apparently got this information by meeting with a mysterious unknown source. Oooh sounds like a secret mission from uncharted space. The U.S. government was forced to come clean and just like that Tom was redeemed and got to count all the small things he was grateful for. Got the pun? No? Okay, lets move on... U.F.O.'s are real and was confirmed in 2020 and then in 2021 the government also shared that they had a secret UFO task force. This force is apparently keeping an eye on the UFO situation and no doubt have massive amounts of confidential information on the topic. Since the news broke a survey had been done by the Washington Post and found that now about half the population believe in conspiracy theories or feel people who believe in them are probably right. Hm... who would of thought?
Kim Kardashian divorced Kanye west and started dating Pete Davidson.
Speaking of extraterrestrial topics... Since Kanye and Kim's divorce Kanye has been desperately trying to get Kim back and it has been making headlines, he even bought a house across the street from her. It seems they broke up right as the final season of Keeping up with the Kardashians was airing, seems a bit suspect if you ask me. Anyway, Kanye has been posting Instagram stories professing his love for Kim, but all in vain because Kim has moved on, and fast too, with Pete Davidson no less. I mean come on, does his dick dance? Kourtney Kardashian was always the least popular of the sisters but finally shot up in the ranks once she was able to get her hands on Travis Barker. In my opinion Kim couldn't handle Kourtney getting so much attention, divorced Kanye, and found a punk skinny white boy for herself. Everything they do is very calculated to stay in the public eye, rather clever really. But, all in all this relationship was quite a shocking couple up I did not see coming.

A ship's traffic jam in Suez Canal.
How weird was it when this thing stoped all traffic and left about 400 vessels waiting in the Egyptian canal. At first the news released that the skyscraper sized boat got stuck due to weather issues, but it turns out it was human error. The police said before they had got to the bottom of what happen that legal action would be taken against parties responsible. Esh, that is a pretty big bill somebody has to pay. Of course they had to pin it on someone, it's not like the weather could fork up the money for the bill. I just added this to the list because it was quite odd and made news for days so, here it is.
Britney is finally free!
When a podcast figured out that Britney's cryptic instagram captions might be hinting to her being held against her will the internet started digging for the past couple years. They were able to discover that she was held under a conservatory that is meant for people of whom are deemed unable to care for themselves, yet the same people who held this power over her had her working year round while they reaped all the benefits. They claimed she was crazy. This upsets me more than I would like to admit, I mean, I wasn't protesting down the streets or requesting legal documents from courts to uncover information, but I was with them in spirt. I am glad Britney is free. For that matter, if having a breakdown and do some partying for a year is wrong then I ain't right. Nevertheless, this whole thing is BIZARRE.
Nurse’s saline ‘solution’ to fight COVID-19
Remember when that nurse in Germany switch out the COVID vaccines for saline solution in over 8,500 patients. She later claimed that she dropped all the vaccines by mistake and tried to cover it up by replacing all vials. I mean, do you think she was trying to stop the vaccine from going out and made up this whole dropping situation to cover herself? She was of course fired but most of the people that had gotten the vaccine at the time were elderly, meaning she could have put their lives in danger. Do you think she should have been arrested for this? Sorry, I am asking a million questions in this one, it's like reading the blog of the Riddler.
Jlo getting loud and Bernie Sanders mittens.
I don't know why but when Jlo sings "lets get loud" a chill runs down my spine. I am not sure why this one was so popular but people were either into or cringed out by this part of the presidential inauguration, I don't even want to look it up, I am just here to remind you this happen, and you let it happen. I never understood why pop stars even preform at these things, like thats weird right? Why is that a thing.. besides the point.
Don't forget everyones favorite meme for months on end. Here is ET explaining it in a very old people who don't understand memes but have to write a story way.
People fell in love with his giant mittens and made many edited pictures out of it. It was funny at first but after it was drilled into my head from the extreme excessiveness of the whole thing I never wanted to see mittens again. But now I must force you to remember this day and look back in peace and not sorrow.

Elon musk is now the richest man alive.
Oh yes, the genius behind the baby name, X Æ A-Xii, ahh just like the moon and June songs from when I was a child. He is now named the richest person in history by Forbes, beating the CEO of Amazon, which is he who must not be named. Elon is now worth approximately 300 billion dollars. People are out here getting disgustingly rich. At least it is going to someone who is single handedly trying to make a difference in science, he has made strides and started paying taxes, so I guess? Although, as I understand it he is a villain in my hometown for pollution and other mysterious details. Maybe he will spend a billion or two cleaning up my town? Maybe I can get X Æ A-Xii to join my task force and together we can try to force his dad to donate a few billion bucks to save the fishes? Meanwhile, the song below is me knowing how much money Elon is storing in his Bitcoin account.
Mr. Potato Head was canceled.
Yes, you read that right, a bunch of people went after Mr. Potato head for not being "gender neutral." So, like pictured above, Mr. Potato head dropped the "Mr." in an attempt to appeal to a bigger audience. How outrageous are people getting, looks like they didn't have anyone to cancel for a month so they went after the nearest innocent potato and force him into a lifestyle he never wanted. I mean, I could care less but still this having even been a thing in 2021 was hilarious to me. If you have a Mr. Potato head box from pre gender neutral Potato it may possible be worth some money in the future so keep those things stored in a climate controlled area wrapped in silk.
Betty white passed away
Betty White, my queen, passed away in 2021. I can't tell you how obsessed I was with the golden girls when growing up. I had my high school boyfriend, now my husband, tracking down copies of the show and eventually finding a seller from Wisconsin and entering our credit card information on the sketchiest scam looking site to get me copies of the DVD. Back in the olden days tracking down things like that was actually difficult and special. Betty White remains the only celebrity that I have ever written a letter to, I mean my daughter's middle name is Rose for goodness sake! Okay, enough about my obsession with her and how I thought my love for her would have kept her around for 15 more years. She was a bright star and deserves a whole post to dig deep into her past, and I will deliver on that. Enjoy this compilation of funny Rose moments on the Golden Girls.
Did you remember any of these? Which one was your favorite? Which one freaks you out the most?
