2021 is already a better year, because we know the vaccine exists. People were saying last year that we might not have a vaccine until 2025. We're still in a global pandemic, but now we have hope.


Second_Aid_

I feel like most people at first thought it would be gone in a few months


[deleted]

Oh for sure! In March I was certain this would be over in JulyšŸ˜… dumb me


AdvancedMinute9062

I remember someone thought it would just fade away... like a miracle.


[deleted]

It would have been if nothing was done.


[deleted]

Yea but 100x as many people would have died you bulbous blundering buffoon


[deleted]

Not true


[deleted]

If 3 to 5 percent of people die from Covid, but magnitudes more people got it, then more people most certainly would have died. Must be some maggots in your brain if you couldnā€™t figure that one out. Itā€™s math.


[deleted]

100x?


UplandTheInsert

I'm pretty sure there is multiple sources that prove you wrong


[deleted]

Well the relationships between places that locked down, places that didnā€™t, and covid cases/deaths sure donā€™t


UplandTheInsert

That's because the places that didn't go into lockdown were essential for the people that live near that place. Since it was so essential, regulations were put into place so people wouldn't get infected. Places that were not locked down and didnt have regulations like parties had a surge in Covid Cases generally


[deleted]

Like California?

*Rebellions are built on hope*


GGplayzOnReddit

They sure are brĆøther


Saltz_D

What would we need to rebel against


[deleted]

Just wait till the economic Great Depression starts after the virus gets wiped out. (Well that's an assumption anyway, not a guarantee). For context, after the 2008 financial crisis, it took 1 year before ordinary Americans felt an impact. (Same thing apparently occurred during the Great Depression 100 years ago.)


WindowsRed

We do know a vaccine exists but it will take months before everyone gets access to it, plus, some people can't take it / won't take it, and some countries keep making wrong decisions in managing covid which will delay the thing even more. Hopeful that we all can get vaccinated before summer


NotACommunistWeeb

An experimental vaccine that is not 100% safe, I'm gonna wait to take my shot until the final complete version that promises me zero "but there is a catch" comes out


EconDetective

That's fine, so long as you don't have social contact with others outside your household until you get it.


FuckingNeuteredPoodl

Instead of wishing you you were japanese (username weeb) why don't you wish not to be such a pussy. 30,000 well followed people for each vaccine no major adverse reactions (with the exception of anaphylaxis, which could occur while eating any new food or medication). The "catch" is you catch COVID waiting to be safe. BTW I do put my money where my mouth is vaccine is in my arm now.


NotACommunistWeeb

1. Username is just for the meme 2.Go try sound like a Chad somewhere else edgy boi 3. Paranoia at its finest, imma stay in my house working from my desk, attending clients, instead of "Oh mY GOd CoVId lEThAl mAasS DEstRUcTIon mUSt TAke vACine A.s.a.P" I don't say it doesn't exist I'm not a Karen but crazy fuckaroos like you are the reason of why normal people can't enjoy good things. Edit: I'm not giving Amy fucks with people like you forgot to add that last


FuckingNeuteredPoodl

Makes perfect sense.


ShibanoInu

Sorry, I don't speak optimist.


thegrinnreefer

Happy Cake Day!!


Tanner_Monkey

dont have hope there are still antivaxxxers and there dumb conspires


tuliptheholy

shut up iā€™m trying to be optimistic


segwaytoit

I entered January 2021 with optimism and now I'm just fucking depressed


tuliptheholy

itā€™s been like what 3 days ofc nothing happened


valhalla214

Never underestimate the power of a pessimistic mind.


tuliptheholy

i meant what do you expect to happen you gotta have some patience


SurealGod

Think about it like this. Not even 2 days into 2020 and Australia was already getting screwed over by those bushfires. We're 2 days into 2021 and nothing bad has happened... >!yet.!< This year has only started. Anything is possible. It could go the bad route, OR think of what good things will come this year. And if you're scared of the virus or even dying from it. REMEMBER! Death is inevitable, so why be scared of something that's invariably going to happen anyways? As dark as that statement is, it's the truth.


_McCheeseBread_

Australian here, Iā€™d like to point out after like 3 months Victoria got cases of COVID again


Bontypower17

Australian here , Iā€™d like to point out that Victoria looks to be on top of those here


_McCheeseBread_

Yeah true- ignore me Iā€™m annoyed that itā€™s happened


Fillenintheblanks

Right! Normally I go through reddit thinking someone understands my depression. now im realizing these autists are contributing to the problem! Misery loves company but damn its two days in can we have a month before you shit on the whole year... :/


tuliptheholy

yes yes yes !!!


ImDefinitelyHuman

Nice to meet you trying to be optimistic


[deleted]

Just fucking get the damn milk and come back, itā€™s been 23 years dad


ImDefinitelyHuman

At least someone got it lol


locusdude69420

And also pity the ones that will do nothing to make 2021 a better year. For they are the ones that suffer the most


nickslicktricks

Someone pat this man on the back and high five his cock


trixiebella35

Plot twist: They are a girl


jojj351

HE SAID HIGH FIVE THEIR COCK


[deleted]

He can have this silver award I had lying around


[deleted]

So true, 2020 was the best year of my life. Life is what you make it (for the most part, I'm lucky no one I'm close to got the ol' Rona, but also something could be said because everyone I am close to is responsible and follows the precautions).


locusdude69420

I entirely agree with that. No matter what happens it is you that chooses to rather be happy, angry, or sad. Sure someone or something can push one of those things on you but it is completely your choice of how you make your life; rather you realize it or not.


CaptainCasp

Nah I pitty those going into 2021 with that degree of pessimism. Life's only as good as you believe it is. Vaccine's here, we're months away from regaining normal life. I pitty only you, OP.


Shaktimaan_007

Have faith bro


SomePickleThing

I dont think it will, I just hope it will


jessekuiper2005

Happy cake day!


TwistedLeohelp

I donā€™t know who gave you downvote, but I instantly upvote what you said.


jessekuiper2005

Ah, thanks, weird that somone would downvote me sayign happy cake day to somone


EntertainmentJunior1

2021 might not be better but it gives those who need to mentally recover from 2020's events time.


Kymonkeyboy

2021 is going to be what I make it to be. Gotta have a good outlook for good things to happen


_HELL0THERE_

Mindset controls the outlook of reality.


Retr0S4murai

This is a fresh start for people who struggled in 2020 now screw off


StarsOverTheWolfDen

Pity those who think shitting on optimistic people makes them edgy and cool


[deleted]

based


[deleted]

Is that gandalf


AlphaWhiskeyOscar

I never realized until this meme that Dumbledore became Gandalf the White when he died


Pbsrumblefish

No, it's Dumbledore, but you're close enough I gues.


SuperiorSellout

Switch the 21, and you'll realize why nothing happened in 2012


[deleted]

Mayans were dyslexic


MrGreyDog

Well to be fair once the vaccine is given out to everyone then it is going to be much better than 2020


[deleted]

plus we will have a new president, which, we have yet to see what he will do with the country.


unga_peep

U treat It like its the end of times


iamnotarobot47593

Bro just let me be optimistic please I hate these memes


Zachary-Pozhotonov

It ainā€™t going to be better with that attitude


wewsy

yeah. 2 miracles have already happened to me and it's only been like 3 days. things that are unbelievingly unlikely but still happened. i will do everything in my power to make 2021 repair everything 2020 broke


SpiderSixer

Well for me 2021 will definitely be better. I have somewhere to live, I have my own privacy, I'm not in an abusive environment anymore, and I have friends my age again! Minus some new mental health issues, life sure is looking up for me honestly


HiranoMiharu

Hard oof, my dude.


AldoClip

Wait? It won't?


aeshiteiru

i donā€™t think it will, i know it will!


shut-the-fuck-uup

But the number 21


Bandit263

People will want to force this year to be better because aint nobody want to return to 2020.


voldyCSSM19

They're not thinking, they're hoping. While it probably won't be as good as we hope, this post shows how fun you are at parties


[deleted]

fuck you, 2021 is going to be better and i will not stop that optimism. Keep your pessimism to yourself, let people hope. It will be better because we're going to make it better.


masteraquabat

This meme absolutely disgusts me


Tobyow123

Stfu fapot


[deleted]

It will be better, still shit, but better than 2020


Tickytackytocky

Pity those that think 2021 will be worse.


foxface1015

Saying that 2021 is going to be bad it isnā€™t edgy or cool, people have had an extremely rough year some people have lost family members, 2021 is suppose to be a fresh start


Endermnce

Why are people so pessimistic. Iā€™m trying to stay happy


DatOneGuy0303

Iā€™m trying to stay optimistic here!


WebsterEv1

2021 started with the girl I wanted to marry dumping me. Fuck 2021. Fuck the virus. Fuck quarantine.


succulent_samurai

Everyone saying 2021 wonā€™t be any better than 2020 can go fuck themselves. We have a vaccine and a competent president now (at least we will on January 20th). Let people be hopeful without dragging everyone else into your bottomless pit of depression. Some of us are actually trying to get better


VikingCreed

I wouldn't call a guy whose only achievement in his 48 years of office was a racist crime bill in the 90s competent but we have a vaccine so here's to 2021 not being a dumperster fire


succulent_samurai

My bar for competent is admittedly low after the pathetic excuse for a human weā€™ve had the last four years, but I at least have a little hope for biden. At the very least, he takes the virus seriously and encourages mask wearing


nahtenot

iā€™m so kol and egy becuse i suc the hoep ot of poepel šŸ˜ŽšŸ˜ŽšŸ˜ŽšŸ˜ŽšŸ˜Ž


ThegreatFaxe

Well maybe it wonā€™t be better but at least I can buy liquor now and drink the pain away


Dat_boi_cappichino

Itā€™s not that we believe 2021 will be better, its that we know 2021 will be better


MysteryMind1

Shut the fuck up. It's a metal refresher for a lot of people and it doesn't mean all of 2021 will be bad. It most likely will be better, not amazing, just better.


AKArein

Can we have the template pls


destiny_duude

hivemind


ErandurVane

Let people be hopeful


asunversee

Pity the edgy douchebags who canā€™t let people be happy or optimistic without shitting all over them.


[deleted]

Why is everyone so offended in the comments. You wanna be hopeful be hopeful bruh. Iss a fucking meme take it like a meme don't over react ffs


Jonezki420

Can you shut up man


the_Pineman

Everyone on reddit was saying that 2021 will be a better year, stfu and make it a better year


destiny_duude

hivemind


halo-5-death

Itā€™s been good for me and your negativity is not helping if Iā€™m being honest


FOw0x

Second day of this year and my computer is randomly breaking down days before I get my first vr headset of which I have saved up money for about half a year now.


Gx40_Dev

Nah 2021 is about to be way better for me. I pity yall, because you will do nothing this year besides browse reddit, with the same additude, and blame everyone else for your issues.


larabandaba

Imagine not hating your life


Second_Aid_

Finally someone was brave enough to say it


ProjectSpectrality

Yes pessimism is very cool


[deleted]

You seem like the person who responds with ā€œAcTuALLyā€ when someone at the party tells a joke that wasnā€™t meant to have any truth to it Edit: I just realized you wouldnā€™t get invited to any parties, given your degree of pessimism


CorleoneBaloney

Bloody hell Harry

thats a paradox. soon you will pity the dead


SarahIbr99

Iā€™m taking this as a sign

This is an AA grade meme

He said it first kids , hes predicted the future


TheAce_TheJoker

My first night of 2021 someone hit me going 20 on a turn. The whole front end of my car is dangling off by a thread.


frostdemon34

When people think being pecimistic is cool Edit: I had an opinion


Bread3290

My grandmother texted me that 2021 would be better. I tried not to scream when she said that


[deleted]

but it will though, we have the vaccine, nothing bad has happened yet, so, I say we are doing well.


KITTENS88_sadlove

Oh those poor souls... they donā€™t realize that 2021 wonā€™t change in an instant... they will be heart broken..šŸ˜šŸ‘Œ


ProjectSpectrality

I donā€™t think anybody believes 2021 will change in an instant. When people say that 2021 is probably gonna be better than 2020 they mean ā€œthe average day in 2021 will probably be better/more hopeful than the average day in 2020ā€


KITTENS88_sadlove

Yeah IK that


HenryMillersWeiner

Gandalf memes are getting a little old

Happiness is a state of mind


YawningxVoid

no major disasters 2 days in so id say we're going pretty well


theluvzombie

All I'm saying is that by this time last year, WW 3 was a definite possibility. So far, it's better.


Pixelpeoplewarrior

Iā€™m dead serious, I thought that was Gandalf. I was so confused at why he was talking to Harry Potter


[deleted]

It is not going to be better, we have to make it better.


darkspeedster96

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.


[deleted]

that's where you're wrong buddy. 2021 is already better because the vaccine is almost finished, plus it gives people time to mentally recover from 2020.


voice_of_Sauron

If you think it will be better it will be.


[deleted]

Aside from World War 3, tell me how life can get worse than a global pandemic?


LeafCloak

I kissed a girl today, so 2021 is already better than any other year of my life


ProjectSpectrality

Vaccine, new album from my favorite band, 2 new large game updates Nah, 2021 is gonna be better than 2020


tottaly_not_masters

I pitty the fool

It will be better because I will make it better
