Memes that Perfectly Sum Up the Weirdness of 2020

2020 was a year of new experiences, most of them not great. It felt like the world was turned upside down and we had to adjust to a number of changes in our everyday life. Social gatherings became a thing of the past, and working from home became the new normal for people around the world. Students started attending class from their computer screen and face masks became the must-have accessory for anyone who ventured outside. We became hooked on ordering food by delivery and Netflix became the holy grail of all entertainment. In short, 2020 was a pretty weird time for everyone. People have taken the bizarre events of the past year and turned them into memes we can all laugh at. 

How Our Priorities Changed in 2020

This year brought about a major lifestyle change for everyone, and that meant a change in priorities! Living through 2020 meant a constant change in perspective for what you thought was important. One day toilet paper might as well have been as precious as gold, and the next day the significance of your car plummeted. It may look nice sitting in the driveway, but where are you going to go with it?

Bras became an ancient relic and sweatpants soared as the fashion statement of your living room. Coffee kept its importance year-round, as we all expected. But you know what’s missing from this chart? Takeaway. What would we have done without “at your door in 30 minutes) pizza delivery??

A Different Kind of Leap Year

Usually, time moves in a linear direction, every day has an equal number of hours, and every week an equal number of days. Most months have about the same number of days, excluding February. But in 2020 everything we understood about time was thrown right out the window! March seemed to drag on to the point it felt like an entire year.
