Did I tell you guys about the Yankee Swap I participated in yesterday? At one point, I had a Christmas Story action figure -- the dad and the Major Award. It was hilarious, and people were hilarious about it. Someone asked what I had, from across the room, and I just held it up and said, "It says 'fra-gee-lay." Good times.
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2010: Don't Let the Door Hit Ya...
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 2010? We have a few words for you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's a movie called that?
Seriously, I hadn't quite registered that. I think my brain never saw the capitals.
I think the clip probably works better with context. But leg lamp references do make a little more sense to me now.

My sister-in-law got my brother leg-lamp pajamas this year. The shirt says "It's a major award." I wish I was going to be here when he opens them. Last year I got him a Red Ryder BB gun.
