Well, so much for starting off 2019 on the right foot. Took the internet all of two days to fuck that up…
2018 brought us the Tide Pods Challenge, the Condom Challenge, people were literally lighting themselves on fire for fuck’s sake, it was anarchy. 2019 was supposed to be better, but here we are just two days into 2019 and Netflix is already tweeting out warnings, encouraging Bird Box fans not to hurt themselves for the sake of a stupid meme.
If you haven’t seen Bird Box, basically Sandra Bullock walks around the movie blindfolded, so naturally, idiots everywhere are blindfolding themselves and then going out into public, driving cars, walking off cliffs, etc…
Can’t believe I have to say this, but: PLEASE DO NOT HURT YOURSELVES WITH THIS BIRD BOX CHALLENGE. We don’t know how this started, and we appreciate the love, but Boy and Girl have just one wish for 2019 and it is that you not end up in the hospital due to memes.
