Everyone is making such a big stink about today being 12/12/12 on social media today.
Here are some Facebook posts and Tweets from the last time it was 12/12/12:
“Just got my tickets for the Ziegfeld Follies, awesome!”
“Went down to the apothecary, got my marijuana and heroin but they were all out of morphine. Pity, I have such a headache.”
“Please pray for my neighbor, he has diarrhea and fear he may pass. This will make 6 people I have known that died from either diarrhea or influenza this year. Please make this stop. Re-Tweet to stop diarrhea deaths.”
“Was thinking about taking a train ride to that new state of Arizona for my vacation this year. Any suggestions?”
“Posting pic of my sweet new ride, a 1912 Brush Roadster. I got it all the way up to 20mph! Shhh, don’t tell ayone”
“If Taft wins this election, I’m moving to Canada! Tariff rates will be through the roof!”
“I’m worried about the people in Albania, how will they survive without being a part of the Ottoman Empire”
“Going to this brand new Fenway Park place tonight! Can’t wait to see the Boston Red Sox kick some NY Highlanders ass!”
“Anyone looking for a job, come on over to Kodak, they’re hiring like crazy! This place will give anyone in Rochester a job, you’ll be living like a fat cat forever!”
“Madge is listening to “When I Lost You” w.m. Irving Berlin, on Spotify”
“I am soooo jealous! The farmhouse down the road just got electricity! I hate my parents for not letting us get electricity.”
“Oh my God, it’s 12/12/12! Too bad the world is ending in 2000 and we will never see another 12/12/12″
I’m daft for Taft…
Word.
I so hate it when the apothecary runs out of morphine. It really helps steady my opium shakes.
Seriously, and I just had a pot of opium tea…
Oh boy… I SO love this post! LOL
Thank you, thank you. Who doesn’t like some history geek humor?
Great stuff! I like what you posted much better than the nonsense that is running around. Chicken Little; “The sky is falling in!”
Thought it would be a nice alternative.
Oops! I missed my Kodak moment…
Yea, that ran up until about 1990.
Clever! I lol’d
Gracias.
Hahaha! This is awesome! I love the part about Albania and then Fenway Park. Very clever. I also got pretty annoyed with everyone posting about 12/12/12 yesterday. Just another day!
Thank you! Yea, it was a little ridiculous.
What a great post!! Love it.
Thanks Susan!
Nice one
