Misty and Cory's best and worst of 2012

These are just some of the things we thought either made or ruined our year:


One of the things that we looked forward to was the end of the Twilight series movies. No more Team Edward, Team Jacob, or terribly cgi'd werewolves. And most importantly no more Kristen Stewart. We could write another 12,000 words on how much we dislike Kristen Stewart, but we'll spare you. Let's all just rejoice in the fact that she will now quietly fade into oblivion.

We did have positive experiences at the movies this year. Argo, The Hobbit, Moonrise Kingdom, This is 40, Django Unchained, and The Dark Knight Rises all made us laugh, cry, cringe and shit our pants. Some all at the same time).

Really struggled with the segue between movies and TV and we're very distracted with the Throwback Jamz music channel so this is what you're getting. Thankfully the Walking Dead returned to its roots this year and actually featured what made the show popular: nasty, gory, Zombie death porn. Meth and Landry from Friday Night Lights made a triumphant return in this season of Breaking Bad. If you're not watching this show, what's your problem? Meth?

Not that everything we watched on the small screen was great this year *cough* Honey Boo Boo, we're looking at you. When a horrible excuse for a human being and her horrible child become so popular on a TV show that they get their own TV show, you know an apocalypse is imminent. Speaking of apocalypses, Keeping up with the Kardashians will have a new cast member next year: The Antichrist.

Jay-Z and Kanye pretty much ruled the music world this year with Watch the Throne, Blue Ivy and Kim letting Kanye finish. We wonder if they did it "Gangnam Style" (from behind while riding a horse sideways). New music acts, we understand you like Mumford & Sons, EVERYONE likes Mumford & Sons, but just adding a banjo to your song isn't going to make you the next Americana Grammy Winner. Music this year also dropped more sick bass than an uncoordinated fish doctor. We'd rather Skrillex and his contemporaries go back to coating our non-stick cookware.

There were lots of good reads out there this year like Hunger Games of Thrones, but they all pale in comparison to the glorified mom-porn series: Fifty Shades of Grey. The fact that this Twilight fan faction sold over 20 million copies gives us hope that an equal treatment will be given to the Harry Potter series because naked quidditch is something that should exist....outside of our minds.

2012 was the year that the world was supposed to end. The world didn't end, but if you spent any time on Facebook in the Fall, you might've wished it had. From gay marriage, to legalizing pot, to gun control everyone had an opinion but not everyone possessed the mind to rationally discuss on social network sites. We found out more about our friends than we ever wanted to know, but most importantly we found out who were hypocrites, who were developmentally disabled, and who we'd want having our back in a bar fight.

Needless to say, we're glad 2012 is over. But we had to say it so that you would know when to stop reading.
