You might want to take a look at Dave Barry’s retrospective on 2017:
Looking back on 2017 is like waking up after a party where you made some poor decisions, such as drinking tequila squeezed from the underpants of a person you do not really know. (At least you hope it was tequila.)
The next day finds you lying naked in a Dumpster in a different state, smeared from head to toe with a mixture of Sriracha sauce and glitter. At first you remember nothing. But then, as your throbbing brain slowly reboots, memories of the night before, disturbing memories, begin creeping into your consciousness. As the full, hideous picture comes into focus, you curl into a ball, whimpering, asking yourself over and over: Did that really happen?
Its only real defect is that it’s too close to the truth to be genuinely funny.
Have a Happy New Year! Or at least a safe one.
Dave Berry always produces my favorite retrospectives and this year is no exception.
Happy New Year!

While I hope for a boring 2018, afraid it will be as entertaining as 2017 has been.
I didn’t find it entertaining. I found it distressing.
For me, the alternative is either view it as entertaining or asking folks if they read Sutter Cane while toting a fireman’s axe.
