Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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.

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

Oooh! That's a great game! Good choice, Scola. It's very fun. I got to play a couple games with the creator.

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

You played board games with GOD?!?!?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Is this some sort of "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" thing? Are you trying to blow our little bourgeois minds??

I have an unmarked PRESENT!!! USPS just dropped it off and I ripped into it like a meth head into a candy bar. OMG so cute gnome planter. Vintage wall planter/vase, possibly. My guess is from the 40s or 50s. Green and adorable and going right into my kitchen window to be planted with a succulant. THANK YOU mysterious gifter. I assume from here. I will now begin my sleuthing and I will have you found out by end of day. LOVE IT!

OK, LAists! and I have a few address, so I am narrowing it down.

Um, btw, I was checking out the gnome some more and it is stamped and a cursory googling tells me that this may be the work of a former Disney illustrator who also did some pottery for one of the well known California Pottery houses. Um? AWESOME!

Hah! I love the Santa hunt. I think I figured it out one year by google mapping the UPS drop-off location and going from there.
