Dumb Fox News Hashtag Generates Predictably Sarcastic Replies
On Tuesday, the account for 19th-century opinion program Fox & Friends asked Twitter users what stuff from 2014 they were "over," kicking things off with the above (apparently un-ironic) image and the hashtag #OverIt2014. It went about as well as you'd expect.

To their social media manager's credit, the hashtag did elicit at least one sincere reply, from Tea Party activist Neal Boortz...
Tats. Urban yodeling. Baba Wawa. Broccoli. Al Sharpton. Global warming. and ..... 0BAMA. #OverIt2014

...but the general response is probably best summed up by this tweet:
The dipshits on @foxandfriends. #OverIt2014
