Well, it’s the end of the year and time for another reflections post… but, honestly, 2017 was a shit show from start to finish and I’m glad to see the bitch die… I mean, fuck 2017… wait, that’s not right either, *ahem* let’s try this again…
With 2017 winding down, it’s time for me to look back on the year, and reflect on all the things I learned these past 12 months.
