2016 had so much promise until it basically turned into a horror movie thanks to our favorite celebrities passing away and the nation suffering a bitter presidential election.

It starts out innocently with a couple ringing in the new year in a new house. But then things you never would expect start happening everywhere — the deaths of legends like Muhammad Ali and David Bowie (as well as a gorilla named Hambre), phones exploding, England leaving EU, and unprecedented election nastiness.
