The 2020 Bingo meme emerged as a digital coping mechanism during a year that felt like a never-ending series of improbable disasters. Starting with the Australian bushfires and the COVID-19 pandemic, social media users began creating bingo cards to 'predict' or track the increasingly bizarre news cycles, including murder hornets, mysterious monoliths, and alien disclosure rumors. It became a global phenomenon where people would jokingly check off boxes for each new 'apocalypse' event to handle the stress of the news. The meme perfectly encapsulates the collective feeling of surrealism and dark humor that defined 2020, serving as a cultural time capsule of a year where the unexpected became the daily norm.
