   The bar is set pretty low, tbh.

2. La Niña storms: fine time to don that sweet Buffalo-plaid flannel button-down. 
3. Now that city has a female mayor, creaky male columnists can retire creaky reference “Hizzoner.” 
4. After tunneling State Route 99, glitch-prone boring machine Bertha is now, finally, more scrap metal than scourge.
5. At least MoPOP—né EMP museum, né, Experience Music Project—can’t feasibly shorten name anymore
6. New White House lawsuits, via AG Ferguson, sure to make unhinged POTUS tweets extra Washington Statey.
7. Just two years until 2020.
