I came to a realization the other day. The phrase, “it’s that time of year” is suitable to proceed any sentence and make sense. 100% of the time you follow up what someone says with, “it’s that time of year”, they’ll nod in agreement and know exactly what you mean. Because apparently it’s ALWAYS that time of year. For example:
Person a: my banana went bad on the counter in just two days.
Person b: it’s that time of year.
Or
Person a: my Christmas tree shed all over my floor.
Person b: it’s that time of year.
It works all the time.
