Redditor u/katarokkar said his wife made these 2020 toilet paper ornaments for Christmas.  

With the toilet paper shortage during the lockdown this year, it does commemorate this year and would make a funny thing to make and give for a White Elephant exchange.

INTERESTING FINDS: "KAREN" PARODY DOLLS

A current trend on social media is "Karen" shaming which usually features over-privileged and entitled middle-aged blonde women with short haircuts that expects special treatment.  

Usually, but not always, it is in a store and she demands to speak with a manager and tells an employee she will get them fired over something trivial.  To go with that trend, parody "Karen" dolls are also popping up as well.

 
This American Girl parody doll is has the American Girl doll company threatening legal action.   

I think the gun takes the parody too far; perhaps a button on her sweatshirt indicating "Take Me To Your Manager" would be more appropriate and funny.

This parody is Corona Karen Barbie, but this version is pro-mask wearing that yells at people that are not wearing masks and yes, sadly, there sadly are videos of actual women saying the phrase below to people.

While the pizza has a sauce, bananas, pineapples, fish topped with an egg, 2020 has COVID-19 lockdown, layoffs, business closings, rioting, and a hurricane.

As there are over 4 months left in the year, that pizza may need more toppings.

This "Bingo" is a humorous and clever way to remind people how not to wear their masks, or for the rest of us to try to find humor when we come across those on the bingo sheet.

Mostly I see the schnoz or the wadded up in their pockets.
