2020 That

A word phrase used to describe something that may hold some truth, yet the time for that truth to remain valid has expired and therefore one using the word term would deem it null and void.

My friend of 20+ years just told us his REAL first name. I had no idea his middle name wasn't his first name. Our friend group agrees, his personality is totally aligned with his middle name, not his first name. While a lovely name, we "2020'd that".

Another example...
I went to the store for my curb side pick up order that I placed 1.5 hrs. ago because I received notification "my order was ready". However, upon arrival, the store front was black as night and totally closed. They adjusted their store hours to reflect the latest state mandated "Phased" social requirements. My bad for trying to support local businesses. 2020 that.

That's just so 2020!

"That's just so 2020!" I propose this phrase enter the lexicon - not as in "This is so 20th century!" meaning "retro" or "old fashioned," but as one friend, M.A., said, "Do you mean that it's like all the other wild crap that has happened this year? As in, 'Get in line, Whale, your issue is not special.'"? Yes, that. Exactly that.

"A humpback whale took a wrong turn in Australia and ended up in crocodile-infested waters? That's just so 2020!"
