Jilli! Did you know that in The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy xmas special Santa gets bit by a vampire and sleeps in a gingerbread coffin?!

Oooooh! Okay, I need to see that.

Everyone needs to see The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. And not just the Xmas special -- pretty much any episode will do. Hell, the cartoon features Eris as a character. (She wields a golden apple, and likes to "get jiggy with the chaos." It's fucking *brilliant.*)

Katerina Bee, add me to the gobsmacked crowd. I also want to commit violence on the fuckwit employers.

I found out last night that my uncle died. A WEEK AGO. My mom just doesn't tell me things.

My dad lost two of his sisters this year. Nobody told me anything until over a MONTH after they had died. My dad's family is very weird. No funeral services, no family recognition, no nothing.

My mom's family, for all their fucked-upness is still rallying around their brother. All ten surviving sibs are helping out taking care of my uncle in the last days of his battle with cancer.

vw, I hope you've managed to beat back the migraine with a very big stick.

It's time to pull out my exercise ball. The computer chair is no longer very comfortable.

Is this going to make me think twice about getting rid of cable?

Gentle hugs to K-Bug. Wisdom teeth extraction is of the suck.

Still boggling at Katie Bee's story. I just...there are no words. I so want to read the unexpurgated letter you write to them initially.

It might, at that. Cartoon Network is just about the only channel I watch these days.

Katerina Bee, may your asshat employers receive justice, perfect justice, not a speck worse than they deserve, but without a drop of mercy. And if you think about it, that is a truly vicious curse.

I feel like a horrible elitist cartoon-intellectual-snob for admitting this, but I can't watch more than two episodes of Billy & Mandy a week. Three and up, and the overwhelming desire to beat Billy to death with a tire iron for his epic stupidity totally drowns out all the many pleasures the show has to offer. Two a week and all's well, though.

Katie Bee, that's fucktastic. What a pack of hyenas.

Very, very gentle hairpats to K-Bug.

You get used to it after a while. Then it becomes oddly endearing.

And that, I think, explains in a nutshell why Mandy and I are separated at birth.

The last present that needed to be delivered is finally here! I was getting worried because it is for my older nephew, and you can't tell a kid a Christmas that their gift hasn't been delivered yet. I bought him a build your own engine kit. It's in a nice big box. I think this is going to make me the cool Auntie this year.

{{{MG and MG's assistant}}} Much ~ma to her.

Congratulations, Nora!

I was born in heaven. See? This baby with all the light around it is me and there's an angel holding me. And this guy over here, that's Jesus looking at me, and this guy.... I think this guy is Tarzan. Is Tarzan in heaven?

Hearting Kara.

Pretty Holt family picture!

{{{Katie Bee}}} I already posted in your lj, but reading the story a second time doesn't make it any less angry making. They are fuckers. Don't you dare go back to work for them.

What Teppy said. I love The Grim Adventures. The Christmas special especially rocks.

I've tried, I really have, but I can't seem to build up an immunity to Billy. It's baffling, particularly since Patrick on Spongebob doesn't bother me at all, I like both Timmy Turner and Beast Boy, and I'm very fond of both the Venture Brothers and would steal them away from their not-kid-deserving father if I weren't prevented by their being fictional and cartoons and all.
