Welp, it seems 2023 is about to go get milk from the store or whatever dads say before running off with a stripper. While we’ll never see it again, at least we can always look back at the memories, like creating a fan club for back smith baddie Nick Matthews or challenging people to the unassuming LES light pole.
Before we forget everything that happened (which we will) let’s look back at some of the highs and lows of 2023. It’s one of our favorite times of the year, and as that one magazine picks out their “fan-voted” ripper of the year we take pride in shining light on moments that would otherwise be lost forever.
Without further ado, we bring you Jenkem’s 2023 Superlatives. The cash grabs are just as nutty as last year and the beefs are soft as a newborns bum. We hope you enjoy reminiscing as much as we do.
Previous Winners: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022.
