Ah, 2016—the year that felt like a relentless rollercoaster of dreadful, shocking, and downright bizarre events. From gut-wrenching celebrity losses (RIP to the legends: Prince, David Bowie, and Carrie Fisher—seriously, someone put Grandma Edna in a bubble) to an election that was more absurd than a comedy sketch, nothing was off-limits. It was like the universe decided to throw in every curveball it could. Yet, through the madness, Twitter managed to find humor in the dumpster fire that was 2016.

1. Anyone?
   Could it have been this simple? If only it would make the chaos vanish. Worth a shot, right?
2. Pretty much.
   Just a heavy object crashing down on us from the sky—2016 in a nutshell.
3. The answer to everything.
   Because it felt like every ridiculous scenario imaginable unfolded.
4. He should’ve called in the experts.
   We can’t even begin to process this. From Carol Brady to Princess Leia—2016 took our childhoods and left us searching for someone to blame.
5. Welp.
   This would be hilarious if it weren’t so utterly terrifying.
6. 2016 jumped the shark.
   We lost so many key players; the rest of the year became a wild guessing game.
7. So accurate it hurts.
   The most painful before-and-after you’ve ever seen.
8. Hopes dashed.
   The worst kind of chaos, and it just kept escalating (RIP, Lucy Lane).
9. Are you sure?
   Feels like it, but let’s double-check.
10. *waves white flag*
    What more can this year throw at us? Seriously, who’s keeping an eye on Grandma Edna?
11. Can we rewind?
    Let’s hop back to the future and leave Michael J. Fox out of this mess, 2016.
12. DONE.
    If that’s all it took, I’d gladly hand it over. I can’t be the only one.
13. 2016 had zero pink Starbursts.
    Disappointment after disappointment, honestly.
14. Oh great.
    We could have been optimistic about 2017 if our concerns were just critiques of late-night sketches.
15. Nailed it.
    One day, our grandkids will take courses about 2016—the year everything went awry.
16. Maybe it’s for the best.
    Things often worsen before they improve, right? Let’s skip to 2018 and pin our hopes there.
17. Oh God, change the channel.
    As long as we can escape this year, we’ll endure that infomercial just once.
18. Medicinal tacos are a thing, right?
    It’s going to take an avalanche of tacos to erase 2016 from our memories.
19. Ugh, just leave already.
    It works with toddlers’ tantrums… sometimes.
20. Sigh.
    Happy New Year!
