What a year it’s been. Whilst we can’t say we’re sorry to see the back of 2016, we have to admit we’re starting to get graduation goggles just looking back on our greatest hits from the last 12 months. Without further ado, here are the top 10 stories from Coconuts Hong Kong this year, from a huge celebrity faux pas to accidentally jet-setting dogs, thoughtful personal essays, and (of course) one requisite poop story. Enjoy.
