2017 is gonna be a horrible year

Care to wager a bet Professor?

Better than or worse than 2016?

Before you accept it would be worse keep in mind

2016 had the deaths of a lot of fantastic humans David Bowie, Prince, Gene Wilder and Alan Fucking Rickman

2017 may have Trump as president, but the news every day this year... has been about Trump, going to be president and about the elections

2016 was the year the Wii-Us production was terminated

I just farted, and it was bad... and in 2016, I had a really nice omelette for dinner earlier and I really doubt there will be one this bad in 2017!

This list almost feels like the description of a contestant on a random MTV dating show because of how absurd it is.

Good. I work for the US Government and these fuckers need a kick in the ass. I'm sick of the corruption I see Every. Damn. Day.
