About seven years ago or so, the Happy Bachelor did an episode that criticized westernized media campaigns of The Year In Review, charging among other things such a campaign would take place in early December, and leave out at least three weeks that are remaining in the year.  Apparently Google on its search page has a YouTube link called "#YouTubeRewind: The videos, people and events that defined YouTube in 2014."  Heir thinks it's cynical that they have a pound sign in the link, because the link would still be OK without the hashtag.  How's this for a hashtag, he asks: #ThisYearIsNotOverYetSoItsTooSoonToDoAYearInReview?  Or how about, #ItOnlyMakesSenseToReviewThePastYearWhenTheNewYearIsRungIn.  As in the past, the Heir is sure that the YouTube campaign will completely ignore any events that will occur in the next three weeks or so.  He tried to point that out at the YouTube link in their comments section, but it was trying to force him to change our account.  Maybe he'll comment using a separate account, but he doesn't know if it's worth it.  It's just that there was a time when the Internet was a subversion against The Man, who would arbitrarily go on with Year In Review type coverage.  How can the so-called "new media" claim any kind of moral authority, the Heir asks, when it's just "old media" lite?  He encourages people to similarly complain about Year In Review type campaigns online, and keep the Internet subversive accordingly.

"Dang, people, the year's not over yet!"
