    Well given the upside-down folk in the Antipodes are already basking in the arbitrary construct that is '2017'...


    If you're reading this... congratulations, 2016 didn't kill you...

    I prefer to think of it as 12017 of the Human era.


    Good luck for the new year folks.

    Nope, It was 23:30 GMT that means it was a last ditch attempt by 2016 at extending his lead for the title 'dick year of the century'.

    It was probably a German phrase that meant 'can horribly maim and cripple you so for God's sake be careful,' but had no Anglicised equivalent, so some clever dick translated it literally.

    That which doesn't kill us only makes us wish we were dead.
