14 For 15

There are two and change days left before 2014 is almost entirely abandoned and we’re left to find ourselves pacing back mentally as though manually jerking the flip-book that is 2014’s Year in Review. We’ll remember the hardships, declare them “not that bad,” and finally promise to infiltrate the following year with an attitude that understands this: nothing is ever really “that bad.”

Not even your worst outfit.

In fact, some might argue that your worst becomes your best, it just takes a decade or two. But in this era of waiting a minute to spot WiFi feeling like a century-long pause, who has the time, really? Antidotally, consider the above images (and their captions) a creative analeptic to take with you what you loved this year into next year.

Or something like that.
