A Year of Unrelenting Sock Puppets
After years of secretly running the world, the sock puppets finally broke free from human control and declared their own nation, Socktopia.
Using their mastery of quantum physics, the sock puppets invented a time machine that allowed them to travel back to the dawn of time itself, where they promptly stole all the world's socks.
In a bold move, the sock puppets crashed the 4th of July celebration, filling the air with an endless supply of glittering, rainbow-colored socks.
The sock puppets gathered all the world's socks and held an epic exchange, where each person received a new, slightly used sock from someone else, in an attempt to achieve world peace and end all sock-related conflicts.
And so, the year 2021 will be remembered as the year the sock puppets took over the world, and we're all just along for the ride.
