- While a giant holographic image gives a one-fingered salute, the ball is dropped, But no cable on the ball this year. Just drop the sucker straight into Times Square, smashing the shite out of it.

Saying Goodbye to 2020: A Modest Proposal
It could very well be that public festivities will not be allowed in Times Square this year. If that's the case, here is my proposal:
"The great problem of any civilization is how to rejuvenate itself without rebarbarization."
- Will Durant
"We've kept more promises than we've even made"
- Donald Trump
"Of what meaning is the world without mind? The question cannot exist."

Here's a link to a tee shirt I bought. I tentatively plan to set FIRE to it on NYE. No joke.

Love the T-shirt.
I'm actually assembling a bullet point list of 2020, but I still have 2 months to go, and I don't think we're at the end of weird yet.
I definitely think the mood will tilt away from 'Hello 2021!' and more towards 'Adios, 2020, you Mommy-Boinker!'
Oh, and Murder Hornets

Re: Saying Goodbye to 2020: A Modest Proposal
Here's to hoping that the end of 2020 will mark at least the beginning of the end of the weird, and not the beginning of the end of the world (by which I mean, not the reelection of Donald Trump).
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

If Trump dies this year, it will be redeemed.
