2025 Starts With ‘WTF’: Will History Repeat 2020 Or Is Another Wild Ride Ahead?

As 2024 is slowly coming to a close, social media has begun speculating over the coming year with some humour, curiosity, and even some apprehension. With less than a month to go, the 2025 calendar has quickly become the hot topic due to its quite interesting start: “WTF.” This will not only pay homage to the sequence of the days of the week—Wednesday, Thursday, Friday—but also an interesting play on the taboo phrase “What the f***.”

The Meme Taking Over Social Media

The weird start of the calendar has become a viral talking point across different social platforms. “2025 is coming,” read one popular post on X (formerly Twitter), accompanied by a screenshot of the new calendar highlighting the “WTF” start. The meme quickly spread, with many internet users humorously asking if the year was already doomed, referencing its odd resemblance to the start of 2020.

HAVE A LOOK AT THE VIRAL POST:

“2025 starts with ‘WTF.’ We’re all cooked,” said one. Another user similarly expressed its concern, asking, “Should we be worried that 2025 begins with WTF? Or nah?” The trending concept? A little lighthearted anxiety as users of the calendar feel a communal sense of humor in anticipation of the start of that calendar.

Analogous Comparisons to 2020 Elicit Varying Sentiments

The “WTF” start of 2025 isn’t just for a few laughs; it is also drawing comparisons with 2020, a year that also started on a Wednesday and is now known to many people as the year when global unexpected events unfolded, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Users have pointed out many times the eerie similarity: “2025 will start with ‘WTF’ just like 2020, the year the COVID-19 pandemic and other major global events unfolded.

But is this a warning sign of impending chaos, or just a coincidence? Although some people made fun of the situation, there’s an underlying concern about what the new year could bring, especially when things begin like this.

A New View: “Wealthy, Thankful, and Fun”

Amid the joking, some are embracing optimism as they look to the new year. One social media user responded to the “WTF” calendar with a refreshing twist: “2025: Wealthy, Thankful, and Fun.” This hopeful approach shifts the conversation from worry to anticipation, focusing on potential prosperity, gratitude, and joy in the new year.

A millionaire known for his age-reversing ventures, Bryan Johnson, also weighed in on the conversation by tweeting, “2025 is going to be wild. There are no priors.” The comment by Johnson added to the intrigue but hinted at the possibility that 2025 might surprise us in unexpected ways.

Will 2025 Be Another 2020, or Something Different?

As the jokes and theories keep coming, one thing is certain: 2025’s arrival is stirring a variety of reactions-from laughter to cautious optimism. Will it be like 2020, bringing the world together in challenges and upheaval? Or will it surprise us pleasantly, full of positive change and hope?

Only time will tell, but for now, people seem to be making peace with the year ahead—accepting that sometimes the unexpected can be funny, even if it starts with “WTF.”
