X-Mas


Yeah it's that time of year already. My neighbor was wrapping the garland around his railing this morning as I walked out the door. The red bows were already in place and the lights he assured me would be up by this evening.

Huh?

It's November 7th people. November frigging 7th and this fucker is in the holiday spirit already.

It really was nuts when I saw it. I did a triple take and couldn't believe my eyes.

Your neighbor is a slacker. I've already got my 8-foot inflatable Easter Bunny on my front lawn. You've got to live out on the edge of the curve, man. If you're not moving forward you're standing still...

Hey, does anybody know where I could pick up some sombreros and piƱatas for next week's Cinco de Mayo??

I hate Christmas by the time the days roll around. ITs so sad but true. It used to be something I looked forward to but wtf happened to Thanksgiving?

Argh...

I'd take a match and light up that sh*t! Muahahaha

Are you serious? I would have grabbed a hammer and started swinging it.

people here have put their lights up-only because it gets too damn cold to hang outside in late nov/early dec to hang lights. do it now while its warm and all you have to do is flip a switch.

i've been yellin at honey to get the lights up and he fusses so i say fine, hang the shit in 12 feet of snow see if i give a flyin hooie if you're fingers freeze to the roof of the house.

TJ said...

"flying hooie"--hey, let's save the potty talk for those adult-only, sexual free-for-all chat rooms that you and Ladylongfellow like to banter around in, kimmyk.

You go wash that mouth out with soap this minute, young lady.

Santa arrives in the malls here on Sunday. What ever happened to the days when I got my turkey before Santa showed up?

Networkchic said...

People start celebrating earlier every year especially the stores so they can make more money. It's all about the money. But your neighbor, maybe he's putting the lights up because it really sucks to stand on a ladder and hang xmas lights when it's 20 degrees outside. I've done that, trust me it sucks.

I wanted to scream when I walked thru Wally World's garden center the other day. >:(

In South Philly there is a tradition to celebrate Xmas in July. What is YOUR problem??? Don't you like elfs?

ladylongfellow said...

euwww. That is way too hasty. And what's with Christmas seeming to start earlier every year? The supermarkets are full of Christmas pudding already, I saw tinsel in my local SPAR yesterday, and Starbucks are already whoring their Christmas compilation CD. If this carries on I'm cancelling the whole damn thing and going to sit on a beach with a large Pina Colada in my hand...yep, I can feel a great big bah humbug coming on.
