I get it – “If you don’t have anything good/nice (positive) to say, don’t say anything at all.”
His statement belies him. On the surface, his claim is that of an optimist. However, a true optimist would be able to see or find the positive(s) in (almost) any situation.
The positives are plentiful. They are shown in the acts of people who instinctively try to improve or brighten the lives of sufferers. The pity is, it took a pandemic to bring that intrinsic human trait back to the surface. Hope it does not fade into disuse when the current crises has passed . . . as much as it is going to.
And the stunning scientific achievement of inventing, developing and bringing to market 2 vaccines – man made, that are nearly 100% EFFECTIVE IN PREVENTING DEATH.
My youngest bought a condo in North Bethesda and got married in an immediate family-only ceremony. The only drawback there was his father’s third wife flaunting her cleavage and wearing a rhinestone mask.

Clearly not a sports fan. The Lakers, Dodgers, Chiefs, and Tampa Bay Lightning won championships.

If you can’t say something nice…
Say something snarky that we can all get a kick out of!

Is anything owed to 2020?

Forgetting it is what’s owed to last year.

Guess it was a positive that you weren’t eaten by some carnivorous critter.

How can he write an ode to 2020 when it’s still the Stone Age?

They are long past that year. He decided what there was to remember was better off not being written down again.

Massive wildfires, police rioting, pandemic, etc… but we got rid of Trump. So, maybe it evens out.
