2009 – The Year in Running Gags, Part II: Also Receiving Votes
Another year in the books, and it’s time to put a bow on this biyatch.
Life overall isn’t that much different for us at the dawn of ‘10 (*really? We’ll one day say, “Back in ‘10?” Sounds wrong. So does oh-10.) than it was at the dawn of ‘09 … but let’s proceed with some end of year awards anyway.
Of course, any time you think of us, you think of inside jokes, running gags and zany one-liners. Also: crazy stories. So, we’ve tidied it up by listing them all here and giving you a Top 25 of the best the year had to offer.
