Best of 2019

Pewdiepie VS T-Series has to be the most exciting News event of 2019. A mixture of communities gathered together to promote the battle between a 10 year long Youtube Celebrity and a Bot infested/Music Pirating Corporate channel. The competition lasted from February 22 to April 1. In the end, T-Series won at 100 millions Subscribers, but the hearts of the communities stood grateful to have a great face to a once great platform. Pewdiepie later got to 100 million on August 25. – Connor Moreno

Donald Trump persuading the Swedish minister to get A$AP Rocky out of jail was absolutely hilarious. Was it simply a campaign strategy, or was it a genuine attempt by our president to do good? Who knows- all we can say for certain is that it was absolutely hilarious. – Emi Lynch

 

Worst of 2019

Anything related public/school shootings or bombings. I hate to see people lose their lives in terrorists attacks and I hope this trend dies soon. – Joe Parsley

The death of Grumpy Cat was a heartbreaker. This cat was an absolute legend and one of the most iconic memes of the decade. She didn’t live forever, but her memes will. – Joe Parsley
