Used to be where they just wore those funny hats at the Xmas parties ...
No "Saline Dijon" ??
One execrable term that will probably be up there when The 2013 List is compiled: #Hashtag
What I got for Christmas
This ChristmasI finally got permission to throwaway all the cheap outdoor lights I bought 10 years ago
Every year it was the same story....
I would untangle them and lay them out (3hours)
then string them together (2 hours)
then replace the broken lights(1 hour)
then watch as something causes them all to go out at once(10seconds)
It took 30 minutes to throw them all away
I don't think it was a past life, buttercup.
Yep.
When my dad was a kid, his dad provided Christmas gifts.
Then he grew up and provided me and my brothers Christmas gifts.
Then we grew up and now we provide our children Christmas gifts.
Oh, me and the wife will exchange a little something of our own. But I am at the point where I would rather have a new pack of socks, start a fire in the fireplace and check on my brisket cooking while I watch the boys play with what “santa” brought them.
I feel sorry for these losers that will never feel that content feeling, knowing that I worked hard, give everything I have and I provided all this for my family and was glad to do so. I don’t think they could even comprehend that feeling.
My Christmas was terrible. Not only did a stocking full of coal, I also got a $5000.00 fine from the EPA for being in position of a controlled substance.
Yes, thank you! I meant to put that in there but forgot. And I'll throw in "______ Strong" just to make it an even ten. Here then, corrected, is . . .
My Top Ten Words of the Year for 2013:
1. Selfie
2. Twerking
3. Photobomb
4. First-world problem
5. Sharknado
6. # Hashtag
7. Hipster
8. ______ Strong
9. Sequester
10. Bitcoin
Still have no idea what Hipster and Bitcoin mean.
But no. They are not grown up and mature adults. They get upset by the lack of gifts. As if the basement is still close enough to mom and dad that they expect gifts like children.
A few things, an assortment of Magic the Gathering cards, slippers, tools, comic books, and a DC New 52 Black Adam action figure(its flippin sweet).
Wonder how old this dude is, 40?
I meant DUmmies, not FReepers
argh
Dialing things up to Eleven, I'd add: Period. --WITH punctuation-- although this might be considered a "Right-wing" reaction term given the Obamacare fiasco, and thus not suitable for inclusion by the genteel Media ...
Good Lord, what a bunch of insane freaks. Not a cognitive thought among the whole group.
The # hashtag AND the ______ Strong AND a play on my name! Well played!
LOL, how can we forget!

I got The Force.

"I find your lack of gifts disturbing!"

Tip o' the hat to GOP Congress from over at the Cave.
