8 Things That Happened in 2018 That Seem Like a Million Years Ago

20gayteen was a cool year and all, but it went on forrrrrreverrrrrrr.

2018 might have been one of the gayest years in the history of the universe (they didn't call it 20GAYteen for nothing!), but for some inexplicable reason (probably all of the bad, bad, bad things that happened during it), it also felt like an extremely long one...

So just to reiterate how unending this year has felt, here's 10 things that happened in 2018 that literally feel like they happened a million years ago. (Well, they probably don't feel that old...just like they didn't happen in the past 12 months...)

1. Fergie's ummm...interesting...performance of the National Anthem at the NBA All-Star game

It wasn't the performance America expected (or wanted), but it was definitely the performance America deserved. 

2. Black Panther premiered

It feel likes we've had Black Panther in our lives all along. (That's just how good it was!)

3. The Winter Olympics happened

How the hell did a whole-ass Olympic games happen this year but yet it feels like an eternity ago??

4. Beychella

The performance to end ALL performances.

5. Love, Simon, Crazy Rich Asians, and To All the Boys I've Loved Before revived the rom-com

So many good (and DIVERSE!) romantic comedies came out in 20gayteen, reviving a tired, predominantly white, and nearly extinct genre! 

6. That kid yodeling in Walmart went viral

We still don't get it either...

7. The World Cup

The Olympics weren't the only sports thing people forgot happened this year.

8. The "Bitch I'm a Cow" girl went viral AND got cancelled 2 seconds later

Serves her right for her use of the F-word...

Well now that 2018 is behind us, let's focus on making a 2019 a good AF (and appropriately-lengthed) year!
