Brat summer is a thing of the past -- 2025 is officially Mr. Bean summer. Changing into our swimsuits without removing our underwear. Getting our heads stuck in turkeys. Feuding with three-wheeled cars. Cutting the hair of strangers. Insulting the Queen.

It's the '90s. Blockbuster is sold out of this week's new rental. You download a song but before it can finish your mom picks up the phone. Gas is free, your rollerblade wheels rotated, the Bulls just 3-peated, and the Mall of America is open. Your Tamagotchi is trying to kill you. Life is good.

*eating chocolate while my dog stares at me expectantly* me: "I'm so sorry baby, this is bad for puppies! It'll hurt your wittle tummy! But I love you! I LOVE YOU!" my dog: you have made a powerful enemy today.
