“You think 2020 was bad? Just wait until it turns 21 and starts drinking”

The year 2020 had the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, elections, riots and other events. The year was a disaster for many people.
   
“Just imagine…. 2020 turns 21 next year; it’s going out drinking! #PandemicJokes” was posted on Twitter by Seán Sabraw on December 2, 2020. “You think 2020 is bad, wait until it turns ‘21 and starts drinking” was posted on Twitter by Kinnick Water Tower on December 8, 2020. “If you think 2020 is bad, just wait til it turns 21 and starts drinking” was posted on Twitter by Stay-at-home Unicorn on December 9, 2020.
   
The 2020 joke has been printed on many images.
