Everyone's regretting their '2020 will be better' tweets now

Is it too earnest to hope that the rest of 2020 will be better?

Until then, keep washing your hands and attempt social distancing. Don't stop tweeting though — if there's anything that'll get us through this pandemic, it's realizing that we're all just fools.
