I remember some dumasses tried to overthrow the government in the US
2021 had GME meme stonks and was the start of NFTs. Also COVID vax started coming out.
I liked lock down. It made me feel normal and accepted for being a shut-in for once. Now, I'm just a loser again.
I enjoyed the empty roads going to and from work.
Yes, it literally was a continuation of 2020. That's how years work
Jan 6th
Vaccines!
Party all summer. Oh wait, variants.
I personally got my PhD and moved states to start at my new job. So it was a busy year for me.
If you worked in healthcare, there was a pretty clear delineation. We got vaccines and people stopped fucking dying so much.
I opened 2021 to one of our chronic dialysis patients getting admitted for Covid, so severely short of breath they needed to go to the critical care stepdown unit, and I thought "this is it " By the time I was able to arrive at the hospital to run their dialysis, this person was already off oxygen and up walking around their room.
Come to find out, they had been vaccinated. I'm told that was one of the first people in the State of Massachusetts who got Covid after being vaccinated, and the difference in severity was so dramatic I'll never forget it.
That and movie theaters reopening are the only reasons I remember 2021. It was just a lot less scary even though I was still working like crazy.
It still blows my mind that so many people thought (and in many cases still do) that the vaccine had some nefarious purpose.
I remember 2021 mainly for arguing with morons online about it.
Why are you expecting me to remember something that much weed ago?
Well, that's like every year for me. My memory sucks.
You had long COVID before it was trendy
I really have this. It's like I've lost a whole year of my life.
Pandemic was the best time of my life. Everyone I know(except for one guy) hated it. Me and my buddy enjoyed the shit out of it.
- Didn't have to commute.
- Saved money on home cooking.
- Meetings started on time and you didn't have to walk to and from them.
- If I needed to take delivery of something, no problem, my home is my office.
- Got a 5 minute break? Great, filled the washing machine up and got some laundry done.
- All communication was in email or on chats, making everything said super easy to track.
- Didn't have to meet people. By far the best thing for me.
I lost my job, got paid redundancy, and got double unemployment payments. It was dope.
I remember it, but I cheated by getting cancer that year.
Oof, glad you're still here. How are you doing now?
I've been in complete remission for over a year. All it took was reprogramming my immune system to kill cancer.
There was that ship that got stuck in the Suez Canal, and Squid Game.
both of those things feel like they are from 2016 or 2018
Y'all remember the early days if covid when we were buying toilet paper and accepting imminent death?
I most vividly remember the Italian experience where some guys sister died of covid at home, and they were just like "wrap the body with a sheet and leave it somewhere safe, we'll come get it in a week if youre still alive then."
I remember the early reports of covid surviving for 5 days on surfaces, and thats when I was like "Whelp, we're fucked."
"it's called a motor race, ok? We went car racing."
No Michael. This is so not right!
I'm using a mood app, and apparently 2021 was one of my best years ever. Isolation, taking hikes, cycling a lot and less social obligations.
I remember diamond handing some stocks and missing out on some serious gains.
My entire memory of 2021 is just vtubers
Only reason I remember anything about ‘21 is cause I went to rehab, and the Jan 6th insurrection happened
Outside of that, I couldn’t tell you a single notable event
I remember catching Covid 3 times. Hooray for being "essential" in a place full of assholes.
Wasn't 2021 the year in which Meta announced the Metaverse?
Best year of my life, got over my ex of 20 years leaving me, GME happened, met my now fiancé, got paid for not doing any work for a few months then quit my job.
Honestly? I couldn't remember anything either. But then I looked at my camera roll and had a fun trip down memory lane! Lots of discord DnD and TableTop Simulator, outdoors adventures, and memes. It was a good year for memes.
It's the year the love of my life destroyed me. I'll never forget 2021. I still love her. I lost my soulmate.
ABBA. That's the single most important thing of 2021. Their new album. Remember
My grandma and Betty White died
Was in a deep depression hole and was very isolated. I'm very glad I managed to overcome that.
