Fuck Off Xmas

They are placenta

Fried or poached placenta on toast

 

Lol

Don't forget the partridge in a pear tree, though,
:d

 

Die Hard is on TV tonight, I'm watching it now.

More poignant this Xmas as Mr Rickman is no longer with us.

 

Back in January his closest friends and family confirmed he took that final leap off the Nakatomi building



Hotwater

I thought it was "The most wonderful time of the year".

Yes I'm not really looking forward to Christmas, but I ain't goin' to Goa.

 

Yeah, I'm not going to Goa either, but I don't write a bloody song about it? Bit extreme...

I'm also not going to Bali, Thailand or Australia. Should I write a song about that too.

Of course not. Write songs about things you do do, not things you don't!

 

I can't accept this as a christian.

 

i actually had that song in mind when i made that post; yeah, there's a few decent songs. some of the parodies are pretty entertaining too.

but, those aren't the songs you hear constantly. the traditional songs generally aren't good to begin with, and then the overplaying really kills them.

 

I've just remembered, i actually do hate christmas

I ventured into the shopping crowds. It is horrible out there, guys.

 

If I hear that "I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas" song just one more time . . .

Turns out the singer of that song died some years back after contracting a very rare strain of an STD that she got from--you guessed it--a hippopotamus.

 

Never heard of that song.

But I googled and the singer is still alive....?

 

no hate. just its welcome to come and go without me.
if i were a rich man, i'd commission all the starving artists i know,
but that doesn't really have anything to do with a particular day or time of year either.

said before, winter solstice, purr fact ly reasonable time to get together with kindred spirits,
for a feast of some kind.

don't have to call it anything else, make a lot of mumbo jumbo about it,
or spend a lot of money.

just set an example of being mellow,
or trying to, inspite of in everyone's face thougtlessness
of certain political crap robbing a lot of us of feeling that way.

 

I'm pretty Switzerland about it. I have young kids, so it's fun because of that. Between my husband and myself, we have hardly any family. We never spend the holidays with family. I get a bit nostalgic about Christmas of years past, especially now that my sister has deceased. And the lack of a home cooked meal is really disheartening.

 

I remember all sister and cousins getting up to no good and sisters and brothers of the adults always fighting and arguing. We just played.

One year our parents bought all the family kids super soaker guns with the water spray. Now everyone got kinda the same type, with like 3 water canisters. Daddy bought me one with one water canister and it didn't even have a trigger. No. mine was a flat out firehose. The water bottle took up my back like a back back and my gun had a pump. Now all the others guns you had to pump up the pressure. Not mine, mine just came out like a fire hose. I remember one of my cousins standing out the front of the house and god he must have been 10 or younger we were young lol. And he was all bad ass terminator with his gun. Well my daddy fills my one up and here I come running and I remember clearly one my uncles "god she doesn't have a gun she's got a god damn bazooka!" Lol.

hahahah. I haven't though about that in a long time.

 

I like the pretty colours and twinkly lights.

 

I like the depressed sounding whiners. They contrast beautifully with all the more balanced people who can deal with a holiday's more annoying aspects in a pragmatic way.

 

Didn't you know that in advance?

 

Of course, but it had to be done

 

I was just joking. In all likelihood, she married a man and never even really cared for hippopotamuses.

This song is the worst thing about Christmas for me. They should play this song on a loop to torture prisoners of war.

 

We're Buddhists living in a Buddhist/Muslim nation ........... nobody gets presents.
