The first total solar eclipse to cross the continental United States coast to coast since 1918. A striking natural phenomenon in its own right, it has been hyped up by NASA and "eclipse glasses" manufacturers as something that cannot be missed, lest those who miss it be incomplete for the rest of their lives. Like other events that are blown out of proportion (I'm looking at you Dana White), money stands to be made by convincing people that they must see this. Hotel rooms in Hopkinsville, Kentucky for example are all but sold out in anticipation for the "event of totality" in which the sun will be completely blocked by the moon for 2 minutes and 40 seconds. Problem is; if there is even light rain occurring that day, people who have traveled thousands of miles to see a "once in a lifetime" event (even though total eclipses happen multiple times per decade) will see nothing. There are thousands of other natural phenomenon that occur regularly such as volcanoes, The Door to Hell, aurora borealis, etc. that one has a guaranteed chance of seeing if they spend their money to get to them. Life will go on as usual after this eclipse, until a̶ ̶b̶o̶x̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶m̶a̶t̶c̶h̶ another event comes along that whips the general population into a frenzy.
Person 1: Brah, you driving to South Carolina to see the 2017 Solar Eclipse next week?
Person 2: You is cray cray home skillet. I prefer to maximize my bi-weekly financial gains.

Get the 2017 Warriors mug.“2017” is a year when the styles were different, and the humanity was still scarred for life. When someone calls you “2017 style”, that means you should go home and relive your fucking life. I mean come on, who says “hola soy dora” and thinks it’s so fucking funny, I mean no shit that was probably a kid that just laughed. I mean if you were once called “2017 style” then seriously.
Get some fucking bars.

Get the in 2017 L U L mug.In the Taylor Swift fandom, this is known as the biggest scam to date by Taylor Swift and Direct tv Now. When nearing Taylor Swift's AT&T promoted pre superbowl concert, Direct tv Now planned an "incredible" livestream with amazing surprises for her fans. Because of Taylor's long running break and the months previous news that she was back in the studio, her tendency to release new music during livestreams, and AT&Ts constant "you don't want to miss it" statements, the fans anxiously expected new music. In the end, it was a flower mural where you could put a tag with your name. Nikki, our hostess, was incredibly uneducated in taylor swift and geography. Asking "is turkey a country or a nickname" and called Taylor's mom a cat as well as constant mumbling and shaking. It is known by swifties all over the world as one of the biggest let downs in the pop star's career, following RED's loss of the grammy of the year award in Jauary 2014.
