BOO!

HOLIDAY SHENANIGANS…done right. Hilarious.

TIS THE SEASON…to indoctrinate your children? Mouth firmly shut.

WHEN COMFY IS NOT ENOUGH: Balls.

KRAMPUS!

WHAT. THE. HAMBURGERS? Oh no indeed.

OH SURE, YOU’LL LAUGH…But I am going to be honest. I drive a 2000 mid sized SUV. I haven’t been behind the wheel of a new automobile in forever. Allow me to admit that this story hits very close to home. I had to rent a car over the Thanksgiving weekend. It took me three days to figure out the defrost.

THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD: Those who write with fountain pens. And those who don’t. I’m part of the former and I’m willing to give this a try.

BAD SANTA:

SPEAKING OF THE FAT MAN IN THE RED SUIT: There appears to be a debate over the physics of Saint Nick happening over here. I particularly enjoy the rebuttal to the rebuttal.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? Because the interwebs can always get more dreadful.

THE BABY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX: I had no idea this was a thing.

THAT ONE TIME THE CHRISTMAS ELF DISCOVERED ELECTRICITY:

OH THAT’S NASTY! Olympic #@$&.

THE LUMP OF COAL…that passes for my heart warmed (briefly) when I read about this.

BREAKING UP IS HARD TO DO: Apparently, Uncle Sam is a very disagreeable ex. 

ORIGIN STORIES: There’s a part of me that really, really wants to hear the pitch for this.

THE KIDS ARE DOOMED:

Little Sheperd Boy from Hell | The Weekend Dossier on Dappered.com

The little shepherd boy from Hell. My pal Tony got this little vintage ornament from his wife. I’m kind of scared for him.

IT’S SHOWTIME! I actually have no problems with this. Which, frankly, amazes me.

OH THAT’S NASTY PART 2: Shudders.

INCOMING!
