Hey, Shir, there appears to be a marijuana leaf on this box of chocolates. Should I be worried about eating them at work?
(Oh noooo, there's only one more left.)
Wash: You want a slinky dress? I can buy you a slinky dress. Captain, can I have money for a slinky dress? Jayne: I'll chip in. Zoe: I can hurt you.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2009: So long and thanks for all the fish.
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2009? Don't think we've forgotten about you

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Hee. I'd be lying if I said that I carefully examined the box before sending it, but on the other hand - that stuff is that good, I couldn't care less nor would be surprised if there are illegal drugs in it, God dammit.
I just hope it wouldn't get you in trouble in work.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Hey Smonster, I forgot to ask if the ornament is handmade. It looks like it might be, in addition to being really cute.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And not a cat toy.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
And not a cat toy.
Which, for some reason, makes me ask - Hec, what did you sister send this year? It was your sister who sent Belinda, yes?

Shit tons of sutff! All of it from Wal-Mart I suspect.
Matilda got some dolls. Not creepy. They were talking dolls, though, so JZ performed a voice-boxectomy on them when Matilda wasn't looking.
Emmett got a remote control car. He also got a lot of stuff which I think of as typical presents from my sister. That is they sort of look good in theory but they're really the cheap-ass version of an expensive thing that will never work properly.
Like, he got excited because she sent him some kind of game system vaguely like a Wii. He already has a Wii at his mom's house and loves it. So he was psyched to have one here. Except the games on it are all a bare notch above 8-bit video games from 1978.
Also he got a telescope. Which looks cool - in theory. But it doesn't really work. You can't really focus on anything.
Le sigh. I wish she'd get the Good Version of the Cheaper Toy instead of the Cheap Lame Version of the Expensive Toy if you know what I mean.
Anyway, I don't mean to sound ungrateful. They had fun opening all their stuff. It's just the wooden dollhouse that EM got for Matilda is the kind of thing which will endure and engage her more.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I'm not sure! I got it at Cameron's which is this quirky little gift store in town, and it didn't even have a "made in" label, so maybe? I got myself a cute Santa head from the same display, and one for my parents, too.

Errrr.
It was on the floor of the living room this morning, which I'm pretty sure is not where I left it last night.
so maybe?
Cool.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Aren't all Christmas tree ornaments cat toys? If not, my cat did not get the message.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
This is why I haven't put up my tree the last 4 years.
