So I got this idea from all the shit you see on the interwebz about 2016 being a horrible year and a post by Vale saying that he had a wonderful 2016.
So how was your 2016?
What were your highs and lows?
All things considered, was 2016 a good year or a bad year for you?

I'll kick things off.
2016 was sort of a mixed bag for me. The year started great with me giving my mom a bucket list trip to California and spending new years in Vegas. We stayed in Vegas until the January 3rd. So the year started with me surrounded by the women I love (Mon, my wife and two of my aunts, that I consider as second mom's that tagged along with us).
Work life was good. Still making some good money in the second year of a job with lots of growth potential.
Home life is great. My wife is truly a God send. Even through the tough times (more on that later) she has been the best wife I can ask for.
The only low point was a big one. We have been trying to have a baby and went through the first round of Invitro and things didn't work out. I feel that is 100% my fault. I could had done better with taking better care of myself, slow down the drinking and "partying" to give myself a better chance of things working out (I'm the one with the reproductive issues). But you live and learn. We are going to do it again and this time i am going to do everything possible to give myself better odds. Mayor lifestyle change coming up in the next couple of months. Looking forward to 2017 for this one reason.
I was going to mention my back surgery as another low point....I'm only 39 and already had 2 back surgeries including this last one which sucked having a fusion. But I'm feeling better already. So hopefully my back issues are fixed for now and having this surgery was a positive thing.
Can't really complain about about 2016. We have another chance to overcome the one low point. And if it doesn't happen, then it wasn't meant for us.
Not a bad year!
Fuck all that celebrity bullshit. I didn't know them.

Excellent year. Made some good money, made some bounds in being able to make better money next year. Got in the best shape ive been in awhile. Made a Lil dream of mine come true.
2016 was fucking excellent. Looking forward to an even better 2017. We are going to try for a kid this year and make some even bigger moves in the process.

Been a lonely year, not the best luck with women.
Got a good job where I make real good money, especially for my age.
Trump won.
It was good imo.

Went from deaths door to feeling wonderful, got great news through physical's, exercising, sober mostly, plan on keeping it that way. Mentally /emotionally, eh, with moms mental health, eh...depressing, but due to sobriety I've got a handle on it. Looking to continue to improve personally so I can be helpful to others. 2017 will be a ride, four point is locked, I'm ready to dance.

I lost my dad, so that sucked. That will be the thing from 2016 that stands out the most to me. At the start of the year, I lost my grandfather. I was named for my dad and for my grandfather (my mom's father) and they both took a dirt nap this year. I just had that surgery though so I'm physically going to be better than ever. I'm pretty much healed up and doing great. I have the best marriage of anyone I've ever seen. I really can't put into words how cool that is. No matter how rough shit gets or anything bad that happens, I have Kimi. A good woman is hard to come by but I somehow found the best one on the planet. Not only did I find her, she's fucking madly in love with me for some ungodly reason that I'll never understand. I also may have some big news on the writing front soon. I don't want to say it yet but this may be a big year for me. Lots of positive things to look forward to. So 2016 was pretty fucking rough at times but things are looking good for next year. I'm trying to pay attention to what I have instead of what I lost. One thing I think I lost that isn't bad is the drug problem. I had that quarter I talked about that my dude Cee threw me for free to get me through the withdrawals. That was the last thing I did. I don't know how long ago that was because I don't count the days I've been clean. That makes me fiend and makes me do drugs. I have no idea how long I've been clean but it's been a minute now. That was a big trick for me. Everyone who cleans up is always exact on how long it's been. That means you're literally counting it every single fucking day. I can't do that, it's bad on me. I don't even fiend if I don't pay attention so I just don't. I pay literally no attention to how long it's been. For my fellow junkies, give that a try. It worked miracles for me to just stop paying attention. I know it was before my surgery. I had pills to come home on, just a few Percocet but I took them as they were prescribed. Getting high wasn't worth running out and not being able to deal with the pain so I just took what I was supposed to so I could recover and not be in brutal pain. If you count those (I don't) then that was the last drug I had. I don't even smoke weed. I lost interest in weed awhile ago. I still plan on tripping anytime I'm able to but as far as opiates, I think I'm done with them. I seem to be. The cravings aren't extreme. I have moments where I think a line would be good but I just go do something else instead and it passes. It hasn't really been hard mentally. Once the physical side of things was over I was fine. The surgery was actually a blessing, in a way. That would've been the hardest part of cleaning up but I was pretty goddamn distracted through it. Just been recovering since then and now that I'm recovered, I'm also clean. Those two things happened together and made it easier. So next year shit is going to be awesome. I'm going to be clean and the next big sum of money I get from writing won't be spent on nothing but drugs. I earned that money just making up bullshit, I can do it again. That's why it wasn't some huge loss for me. I did it once, I can do it again. Actually, if things go the way they're looking that amount will no longer be a lot of money for me.

Fucking brutalized 2016 so hard it won't be coming back, and 2017 is hesitant to come out of hiding after seeing the beat down I just administered on his butt buddy. We may not have a year next year at this rate.

Good year for me and the family. Business is booming, kids are healthy and happy, and my wife still hasn't realized she is way too good looking to be married to me. I just doubled the number of employees I have, so I am going to try to step business up to the next level this year. Going to turn 36 in 3 weeks, and I have a 15 year plan that hopefully gets me to full retirement (from construction at least) by the time I am 50.

2016: Went to work, went to school, got paid, got grades, got laid, played with my kids, went broke during Christmas. Jaguars sucked. 2017: Will probably go to work, go to school, get paid, get grades, get laid, play with my kids, and go broke during Christmas. Jaguars will suck.
In all seriousness, I had a great 2016. Summer was the high point, I didn't take summer classes and had a lot of fun. I started a business, got promoted at work, and survived taking a full-time class schedule. Can't wait to see what 2017 brings.
Oh, and 2016, when we finally got to ditch the shitty forum for a good one. That can't be understated.

2016 was great for me. Sold and then bought a bigger house. Lost a good amount of weight. Went from 290 to 255 through Keto. Got my cardio back. Family is healthy and happy. 2016 might have been my best year to date.
2017 should be better. Taking the family to Disney in March, and planning on having another child.

Great year for my family. Some similar themes in here. I'm 38, and starting to dial in on retirement goals. It may get annoying to some people in my real world but its really about adopting a lifestyle (lowering expenses) and accumulating enough wealth to make independent decisions. I may still work until I'm 70, but by 50-55ish, I'd like it to be because I've chosen to continue not because it is absolutely necessary.
Dropped about 90 lbs since May 4th. I don't think its close to sobriety challenges that some have been staring down in 2016 but it is in the same realm of behavoral changes. (Real life sidebar, I was incorrect when I was 308 lbs watching weigh-ins and saying things like "I'd be ripped at 225")
In any case, don't take the good fortune of 2016 for granted or dwell on the negatives.
Two claps for CnS and others for keeping the OD alive.

Imagine being a Hillary supporter. No, actually IMAGINE IT. It's fucking hilarious. In my little world I have completely changed direction since November 8th. I was planning on not hiring anyone, restructuring my business in a way that I could take in more cash and not report it (illegal I know), and also plan for no growth in 2017. I was also planning on pulling out most of my money that is currently in the stock market by the middle of January. I have since hired 4 people, plan to expand my business, just put a fair amount of cash in to the market, and am looking at 2017 as a year to accumulate wealth not just hold on and tread water. If my mindset is anything like the rest of country's business owners, we could be looking at some very nice growth over the next 12-18 months....... hopefully.

I may wind up in jail for debt that I technically don't owe but can't afford the court costs for, nor the lawyer to challenge it even though they admitted I don't owe it. 9. My Uncle who stole my inherentence is still traveling the world sleeping with whoever he wants and snorting coke and smoking joints on a regular basis on my money. 10. A dog I helped raise is dying, will be put to sleep within 2 weeks if makes it through the night. 11. I'm deafer. 12. I had to shave my beard. 13.

Managed to see two business proposals put into practice while leaving me out of it. 16. Massively cut back on my drinking, though wondering why I did that. 17. May have gotten a car that'll be delivered next week. 18. No money to afford insurance, gas, etc... for said car. 19. Finally taught myself how to spatchcock poultry. 20. I ate at a Michelin star restaurant (granted by accident). 21. Stovetop now more uneven than ever, and doesn't heat right. Can't replace. 22. Oven's temp fluctuates more than even. Can't replace. 23. Still don't have sunglasses that fit right. 24. Learned I may have a mutation in my CFTR gene. 25. Got banned from local grocery store for saying Fuck You to a manager who assaulted me and made fun of my deafness. 26. Broke my toe (but in an awesome crazy manner). 27.

Fuck 2016.
While I have had the most successful year of my career, everything else fucking sucked.
The loss of my soul-kitty will forever mark 2016 for me. I am still struggling with the loss and grief 3 months later.
My aunt and uncle died in a plane crash.
I finally gave up on a relationship with my mother after many years of REALLY trying to be okay with the hideous human being that she is.
I realized that none of my many siblings really give a shit about me and my attempts to keep our relationships going were not being reciprocated.
I learned that 62,979,636 Americans are absolute mother fucking retards.
Besides having a good year at work, I did adopt a new kitty about a month and a half after Pebbles died. It is my first time in 15 years with a new cat and it's WEIRD. She is like a little space alien, nothing like Pebbles, but she is adorable, funny, and totally weird. We have bonded pretty well I am happy to say. I thought having her would help me with my grief and sadness but it really hasn't. She wasn't meant to be a replacement but I thought having her would maybe distract me. She brings me joy and sometimes that eases the pain that I feel, but I miss my sweet girl every single day.
Looking ahead, I've decided that I'm going to extremely limit my social media use. It exposes me, on a daily basis, to things I just don't need to see or deal with. I've felt better the past 3 days since I've stopped looking at Facebook. I am working on reducing the habitual desire to post about every piece of my life and try to absorb every piece of others. It's just too fucking much. I think the most I am going to do is create a page dedicated to my travels and only post when I'm traveling, because for the most part, I'm not really that interesting and no one gives a fuck about my random musings and photos of my cat.
So year, 2016 can fuck right off.

I made my car faster, so that's cool. Wife beat thyroid cancer like Nunes beat Ronda, more cool than anything car related. Kids are healthy smart little examples of how karma exists in your own DNA. Definitely enjoying the whole being a parent thing more as they can have conversations. The stuff they come up with is very amusing.
Got Toft fired, maybe, which I still have no problem with.
Stopped being friends with Jeff Cain because he's a whining liberal gimp who would require government assistance to live if his wife didn't work at Enterprise car rental. Cutting ties with losers is a very freeing feeling.
Stopped having to frequent a website owned by mormon fucks, which is why Chopper might be my favorite white guy not named Tony.
I learned more about marijuana in 2016 than I did in all the years combined before 2016. I wrote a business plan for a business I will be involved with/owning/running. I secured 3M in funding with said plan. I will use less than 1/3rd of that, which is also pretty damned sweet.
Left behind a big part of my life when I sold off my shares in a group of like minded people. Jumped out of a plane for probably the last time in a very long time.
Got the whole team assembled, got the t's crossed the i's dotted on the preferred shareholder agreements with those who will be taking a cut of my company's profits for themselves.
Conducted experiments with weed, using other people's money.
Developed/developing a system of growing that significantly cuts all costs associated with growing, that gives us an advantage and increases our profit potential for the first year. Pretty happy about that too. Decided to hire way less people, skipping the retail side completely. Happy to have fewer avenues to be sued/robbed from.
Made a few new friends and decided to give some others the slow fade.
Had a ton of sex with my wife. Discovered virtual reality porn, which is cool, but not very necessary when you're banging away 25 days out of 30. Actually just had some sex about two hours ago. It was great as usual.
Learned to cook a bunch of new things that I didn't know how to make before.
Got a really sweet tv for the living room.
Got another not quite as sweet tv for the bedroom. Tossed a Fire Stick in it. Got an electric blanket. Can now lay on my memory foam mattress, with the windows behind me opened and the fans going, so I can lay in bed while smoking weed and drinking hot sake, and not care at all that the room gets really cold, because you can be naked under that electric blanket and the room can be 30 degrees, and it's like sitting in a hot tub in the winter- except without the steam to make your head cold. Been making it so I end up in bed by 8 o'clock every night. Spend a few hours watching tv/fucking/getting a solid buzz and then falling asleep, wake up feeling fantastic.
I averaged a little more than 10,000 steps a day, mostly because on the days when I'd fall short I'd just run in place until I hit 10K. Winning rules. Even if you have to cheat. But you already knew that, you watch MMA, sometimes, but not as often as you used to.
Started working on being more flexible, said it was because I wanted to be more flexible, but really it was because my hamstrings were pulling on the muscles in my lower back and it was getting annoying. Getting older does not rule, in fact it kinda sucks from a physical standpoint.
I made my guys in GTA5 billionaires, and got ranked decently in the online version of the game too. I built a gladiator pit for monsters to fight in in Fallout 4. Neither of those things really had a big impact on my year, but they were fun distractions from all the cry ass liberal bullshit I had to listen to for most of the year.
I refrained from punching people who did not agree with me politically. But I always hoped that some liberal would try to show me how much they support peace and love by getting violent with me. Then I could give them my own version of peace and love which is known as punch and kick. But I never got to.
I did see a bunch of very unattractive white women block traffic in Portland Maine to declare that Black Lives Matter, which made me laugh a lot.
I watched one of my best lifelong friends coach our current town's football team to a state championship, which was cool.
I taught my son a bunch of jiu jitsu and then got in trouble for doing so because I guess a 4 year old doesn't really need to know how to drop chokes at recess, because the world is full of pussies.
I killed a ton of chipmunks in my back yard and one squirrel who thought it was a good idea to head into my attic.
I voted for Donald Trump, protecting my gun rights, legal marijuana, lower taxes, ranked choice voting in Maine, and a couple moderate democrats who are smart about weed. All good things that should make my world a more enjoyable place to be.
Got my wife a new $1401 lap top that she really likes. Just kidding. It was $2000. I paid about 8 grand in someone else's student loans. I expect to be completely debt free within three years. Only one if they let me start selling weed legally sooner rather than later.
I watched my father continue to struggle with Alzheimer's and PPA. Did not grow to like his wife at all, still plan to someday tap dance at her funeral.
Learned a few things about fixing my car when I break it, and I like being smarter than most people. Including you if you read this far. But that's ok, you knew that about me too.
Had some random ex's new boyfriend ask me if his girlfriend's name rang a bell. Told him I rang her bell a few times about ten years ago, and that I hope he likes how my pee-pee tastes. Then I also told him that I met his girlfriend on an early version of Tinder and that she had nice boobs and a black husband when I was fucking her. He thanked me for the information. I laughed and blocked both of them. No time for other people's drama. I come here for that. So I probably do have time for other people's drama, but those people are you people.
Got a new leather jacket, which is pretty warm.
Decided smoking concentrates is not for me.
Discovered tequila is a pro-biotic, was very happy about that.
Determined that I consumed 52 different strains of weed in 2016 and smoked a little less than a lb. of it. Spent $3200 this year on the stuff. Will never pay for it again after the end of January.
Held my Tesla stock. Sold some Google. Shouldn't have. Bought some IBM again. Shouldn't have.
Found a car called The Rally Fighter that I really want to buy and have my friend build for me in a few years.
Looked into the costs associated with constructing a concrete castle. Cheaper than you'd think.
Got a drone, going to annoy my neighbors with it in the spring. Planning ahead is important, 2016 helped me remember that.
A bunch of famous people I never met died, and I didn't care.
Wilford Brimley Lives (Bitches.) Unfortunately, so does Kanye and his equally talentless wife.
Had the shit scared out of me at least five times while walking through my house in the dark, and some electronic toy sensed my presence and started signing/talking/moving. Worst part is that the kids would rather play with bags and boxes instead of these infernal talking things so I don't know why I don't just take all of it to the Salvation Army and just start hitting up the recycling center for used boxes when I want to go toy shopping for the kids.
I got my lawn to be beautiful, lush and full in the spring. Then I decided fuck that, and stopped taking care of it in the summer so that it could look like shit again by the fall. My neighbors can suck it.
Old asshole who lives next door also didn't die, which means I still get woken up at 5am by his fat,shitstain barking Jack Russell. Told his wife at the mailbox yesterday that the next time her dog wakes me up at 5am that I'm calling the police to tell them that her husband has dementia and still drives every day. She yelled something at me that I didn't really understand, probably because she speaks Stupid Old Lady and I'm not fluent. I yelled over my shoulder as I walked away that I voted for Trump so it's a man's world again and she better not fuck with me.
I cleaned my basement, fixed my furnace, got a new freezer for the basement, filled it with red meat and bacon, decided I was awesome for doing so.
Burned through a 50,000 mile set of tires in about 10,000 miles, and had fun doing so.
Still haven't taken the TapouT sticker off the back of my car, because I know a dude who calls himself Tapout on the internet and it's an homage to him. But I probably will get that thing off and replace it with a Deadpool sticker, because at this point Deadpool is cooler than TapouT. The name brand, not the guy who calls himself that. Everyone already knew that Deadpool was cooler than Tapout the guy. Didn't really need to clarify that. But that might be the last mistake I make in 2015. Or maybe not.
12 hours mistake free might entail I be asleep. But even then, sleeping for 12 hours would be a mistake.
Unless you're CB coming down from another meth binge. God Dammit CB! Stop doing fucking drugs. LA did it, and he's only got half as much intestine and twice as many hands to pick the drugs up with.
I watched some dudes I went to high school with die because of drugs, which was not cool.
Went to a few funerals for friend's parents too. Kinda realized this is the part of life we're at now, past the birthing of the kids part and on to the dying of the grandparents part. That wasn't cool.
Had a sweet phonebooth style "fight" with my best friend at my kid's birthday party that ended with his wife beater being ripped. But I won, and he's way bigger than me, so that was cool. Didn't do as well in the bouncy house. I got thrown around like a rag doll in there. A rag doll who bounces.
Grew some huge tomatoes. They were delicious.
I think Negan fucked up The Walking Dead, but it can be recovered. Game of Thrones didn't end in 2016, so that's cool too.
All in all I'd say 2016 was a year. Not a great one, but not as bad as it probably was if you were some delusional libtard who couldn't find a way out of your own echo chamber long enough to realize that the rest of us have been sick of your shit for a real long time. 2017 is likely to be filled with economic prosperity, the death of Twitter, a few solid smackdowns of all things Black Lives Matter, reconnecting relations with Russia, lower taxes, and nightly cups of warm liberal tears to drink while watching the news.

I'll reformat it when I get in front of a machine again. Sorry about that. Realized my phone was screwing it all up right at the end when I saw no paragraphs were formed so I decided paragraphs suck too. But they do make it easier to read the stuff.
And I too am looking forward to seeing what liberals will have to say in 12 months. One thing I have learned since Trump won is that most liberals don't seem to give a single crap about how well or poorly the stock market performs. So telling them that we're breaking records almost daily since Trump won is met with blank stares and makes no dent in their hatred.

Funny that liberals have no problem preaching acceptance out of 1 side of their mouth and hatred out of the other. DOW 22k - 23k by the end of the year would make me very happy....

I personally think the DOW needs to be updated for modern times. The Nasdaq index is a much better indicator of what's going on

Pretty damn good year. Next year should be even better. In our own little world, getting this place up and running was one of the best things about 2016. Thanks for taking the initiative and making it happen! My pleasure, bro.

Down and up kind of night.
We went to a NYE party with friends. It's 58 degrees tonight and my back/ surgery started to hurt pretty bad as we were outside all night. . I guess because of the cold weather (Cold for Florida). So we headed home early before midnight.
We spent the new year countdown to midnight driving south on I95. But it was one of the most romantic moments ever for me and my wife. As we were driving south on i95 we could see like 5 fireworks shows at the same time. Fireworks shows from the cities of West Palm beach, Lantana, Lakeworth, Boynton beach and Delray beach. All going on at the same time. Just me and Raquel driving south. Talk about a bad night turning around for us.
Wish I would had taken some pictures. But we just enjoyed the moment.
Happy new year.
Ps: my back pain went away as soon as I got out of the cold.
