With season 7 of Game Changer, season 2 of The Devil's Plan, and season 19 of Taskmaster all coming out at the same time I simply do not know how much longer I can resist the urge to throw all my friends into an elaborate Saw trap of increasingly complex games and competitions.

For their own enrichment, of course.

The worst part about TikTok ban is when the app goes dark in 30 minutes the very place I want to be is the app. I want to be on the fyp, discussing the snapping of millions of Americans from the platform.

the year is 2066

Justin, now grey and pensive, the eldest, draws a slip of paper from an ornate gold urn, and approaches a lone standup microphone

"Pixie stix" he bellows solemnly. the crowd hisses and boos, throwing coins and knives onto the stage.

Travis, hair now a faded lavender and supported by a walking stick, approaches the urn, then the microphone.

"Stevie Nicks" he murmurs. The crowd seems confused, not angry but dissatisfied. The boos quiet, then are taken up with a vengeance.

Griffin, adorned with the ceremonial bonnet as the babiest brother, is the last to approach the microphone.

"Steamy Pics: Send Nudes"

The crowd begins cheering and kissing. As it always is, the mbmbam fans have found peace at the ceremonial naming of the year.

My drawing for this year's name, plus a few of my favorite rejected names! Do I mourn the loss of a Cats the Musical-themed year? Of course, as I'm sure we all do. But that won't stop me from having a great Tummy Buddy Time.

And as a special treat, below we have my first attempt at trying to visualize "Tummy Buddy Time." Cause, you know, a McElroy-themed ouroboros makes about as much sense as anything else. Happy new year!

look actually calling things that aren't the brand name by the brand name is something corporations really hate. because if it becomes common enough they stop having the trademark to the brand name.

did you know trampoline used to be a brand name? true facts. the inventor wanted all the imitators to call theirs, like, "elastic platforms" or some shit (i don't remember the specific shit) so he could keep advertising The One and Only Genuine Trampoline (tm). and then we didn't. and now nobody remembers him or his trademark.

aspirin used to be a trademark of Bayer

Per Wikipedia: "Trademark erosion, or genericization, is a special case of antonomasia related to trademarks. It happens when a trademark becomes so common that it starts being used as a common name and the original company has failed to prevent such use. Once it has become an appellative, the word cannot be registered any more; this is why companies try hard not to let their trademark become too common, a phenomenon that could otherwise be considered a successful move since it would mean that the company gained an exceptional recognition."

Examples of genericized trademarks include:

Air fryer

Aspirin

Dry ice

Escalator

Flip phone

Heroin

Kerosene

Teleprompter

Examples of trademarks that are at risk of genericization (so you definitely shouldn't use these terms; you don't want to take them away from the poor corporations, do you?):
