The most hilarious 2020 memes about all our ruined plans

A wise friend once told me: "How do you make God laugh? Tell her your plans." And 2020 has confirmed that.

We are gradually getting used to a 'new normal', in which the postman knocking on our door and running away is the height of social excitement.

But lost plans of frolicking with friends still make us a little melancholic.

Naturally, Twitter has been coming up with creative ways to summarise this feeling. Here are just some of the best examples:

Happy lockdown. XOXO, 2020

You want the 411? It's Stay Home.

This is the bad place. THIS IS THE BAD PLACE.

Go Fleabag yourself, coronavirus

Spreading like wildfire is basically the problem

Any chance of a life swap right now?

Sorry Basildon, just take the hit

The "new normal", people

Yep.

This spoiler is about as annoying as lockdown

If your sense of humour is still failing you, just go. Like Preston did.
