Palm trees as Christmas trees....hahahaha! I didn't expect that :)
Fun and interesting round-up, as always!
Hi Infidel!
I was busy all weekend and didn't have a chance to check out the links until this afternoon.
I think Geraldo should be put in a sealed vault to be opened by a faux journalist 50 years from now to see if the mustache survived.
I live in South Floriduhhhh, and I can attest to the fact that people need to be careful when decorating palm trees (nobody is!). My son and his friends celebrate Princemas every year. There is a purple tree and Prince ornaments that is relocated to a different house each year. It's quite inspiring!
I'm thinking of relocating further north, but looking at the Canadian temperature conversion, I am beginning to wonder if I would survive it.
I sort of like the fashion of the future, especially the helmet. No more flat-ironing my hair or worrying about frizz.
What's with people and weddings? A thousand bucks for an outfit? I dread what she has in mind for the gender reveal of her first child.
If Superman had been born evil, he would have been Tariff Man (thanks for the link to The Raisin! :D )! That movie looks too scary for me. Besides, I can't reconcile the equivalent of Pa Kent being Roy from The Office.
Why does anyone pay attention to Laura Loomer. If people would ignore her, she would just be screaming into the wind. Same for a lot of the other asswipes out there who do nothing but motivate knee-jerk reactions to tweets.
Love the updated manger scene. By the way, I know you can get all kinds of gold jewelry, but I checked, and Frankincense-and-Myrrh 100%-Natural-Incense-Sticks are also available on Amazon. Next year, maybe Mary and Joseph can have a tiny house instead of a manger.
As I mentioned before, I am thinking about relocating, and North Carolina is at the top of my list. I wouldn't mind tilting the scale toward blue a bit more.
Yet another reason not to vacuum. Yay!!!
"Baby, It's Cold Outside" is one of my favorite songs of all time, and a pox on anyone who tries to disparage it.
It would be sweet irony if Ross Douchehat was swarmed by angry wasps.
I think we should have a Punch-a-Nazi Day. Who's with me?
Thanks once again for the links, and for your yeoman's work in rounding up these items. I don't know of anyone else that puts up as extensive as this every week, so kudos to you.
Martha: I bet the decorators didn't expect it either :-)
Nonnie: I'm afraid the mustache might well survive, if it's the same species as John Bolton's.
North Carolina is a lot warmer than Canada. On the other hand, the colder it is, the fewer bugs there are.
The idea that that wedding lunatic might reproduce is a bit scary.
Ignoring Laura Loomer is pretty much what Twitter did when she handcuffed herself to their front door. They refused to press charges and said she was welcome to stay stuck there as long as she liked. She couldn't even get arrested. Way to deflate an attention hound.....
Hackwhacker: Thanks! And keep on hackwhacking!
