I want to go back to a time when if someone read the headlines of today, they would assume it was from some badly written movie rather than reality.

[–] prex@aussie.zone 24 points 1 month ago

That's yesterday.
...and most days, these days

I want to go back to the time when there wasn’t Internet.

This year was also 2016.

2016 had so much weird shit going on.

[–] Syndication@lemmy.today 12 points 1 month ago

Yeah, 2016 was NOT good either.

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

2016 was one of the worst years of my life, yet I think I'd still take all of that vs whatever tf all of this is.

Not much has changed when you think about it.

[–] CompostMaterial@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Except those clowns didn't actually kill anyone and these clowns are.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

the real clowns (cops) only killed black people back then

[–] CompostMaterial@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

True, what we really need is a serial killer clown that only targets LEOs.

Also holy fuck, that was only 2016? I was thinking like 2009 off the top of my head.

We still have killer clowns, but we have all this other shit too :) I hope that cheers you up. We haven't lost anything, we only gained!
