Happy 20th Anniversary Manual To Lyf!

It has been XX years since Manual To Lyf started as a blog which was based on an unfinished book of the same title. The blog was made to bring enjoyment about the thrills and frills of life as it is as I have experienced it. The world is such a wide and dangerous place yet we are here and still living. 

Well if you would be observant enough, the anniversary will happen in the year 2026, as stated in the small font underneath the "20 year of blogging fun". It has been a tradition of MTL to make a little gag for the day which was simple and hopefully eye catching. Google also made some interesting pranks like Pokemon on Google Maps, Youtube 2014 New Trends, and even translator to emoji.

For a while, let's enjoy this cover and banner until April fool's day end in all of the timezones.
