I am wearing a red satin skirt with black polka dots.
This is as festive as I will ever be.
My food is problematic.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

No doubt due to his taste in email forwards...
According to him it's because it "turned out to be just another North Dallas pseudo yuppie business venture full of bullshit and bluster" And I'm all, DUDE! Have you looked in the mirror? You are the $30,000 millionare, the douchebag in the mist, if you will.

Should she wear a Santa hat, a la Teppy?
maybe a grinch hat?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Ok. Although today, I would not be a very good example of that.
Me either. I haven't done laundry (though the maid should be doing it right now) and I've either worn all my cute stuff or it's packed.
My jeans don't fit and have a cranky zipper and my layered tops are kinda baggy and boring.
My hair, my purse and my boots, however, are fab-u-lous.
This is as festive as I will ever be.
That's plenty festive. I couldn't even be bothered to wear a color.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Santa hat, antlers, whatever.
Y'all are just weird.
I was in bright colours all week and people were all "Oh, festive!" But what do you think when I dress that way in March? Same with the "I mean, it's really the only time you get to wear velvet."
Uh, no. Temperature is the only thing that prohibits me velvet.
Colin used to wear a Santa hat as a winter hat all Montreal winter through. Which is a dumb, ear-freezing, move.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I wore a Santa hat through the transit strike. I'm pretty sure it helped me hitch rides.

ION, is it OK that a small group of SETI enthusiasts want to begin broadcasting strong radio signals to possible extraterrestrial civilizations? Some think this will put us at risk for alien invasion....
They should ask the Indians and other aboriginal peoples how contact with larger, more technologically advanced societies worked out for them. Overtly hostile invasion wouldn't be the only risk.

Exactly. When I am Queen of Everything, the weather is going to be appropriate for velvet and tights all year.
I don't think my outfit is particularly festive: black velvet dress w/ petticoats, b&w stripy tights, black top hat with pink silk roses, pink faux-fur capelet. Tho' a whole bunch of people I don't know waved at me when I walked through the cafeteria, so maybe they thought I was a caroler. Top hats confuse people, apparently.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Top hats confuse people, apparently.
Lions, also. Hence, the reason their trainers wear them.
