Happy Festivus, everyone!


Recommended Posts

Happy Festivus to you all,

 

Now for my Airing of the grievences.

 

Why do front load washers have to be such a pain in the behind. It's only 4 years old and is getting ready to die. My brother has my old toploader and after 11.5 years it's still going strong. I know none of your forced me to buy one, but I'm going to blame you all anyway :tongue_smilie: since the company just doesn't care.

 

As for the pole. We'll stick with our tree, but it's a festivus tree to us. LOL

 

Now who's up for some feats of strength?:scared:

Christmas carols sung to non-traditional tunes, when the congregation is supposed to be singing along.

 

Dear worship leader:

I guarantee

to be off key

should you change

the melody on me!

 

Call me a traditionalist, or one who needs a beaten path, but these carols have been around for hundreds of years, so please honor the way they were written when you are supposed to be leading a flock.

 

Happy singing to you all! May your head of the household survive the wrestling match!

I'm a newbie to this Festivus thing, but I do have a grievance to add.

 

 

Why do they even put orange and grape popsicles in the bag? they are always the last ones left in the bag. Are they unpopular and you, dear popsicle maker guy, what to make them feel better?

 

Well stop it! They can't compete with blue raspberry, cherry, banana or that white one. I can't decide if it's coconut or pina colada, the white one that is. I end up with 4 popsicles left in every bag until someone is forced to eat them.

 

I'm just saying, if I wanted grape or orange flavor I would buy an orange or a bunch of grapes. :lol::lol:

Thanks Astrid!

We LOVE that book too (obviously)! I read it to the girls last week and my youngest drew a picture of all the Herdmans smoking cigars.:lol:It was sooo cute! It looks like they're smoking flaming poo!!!:lol:

 

I think my goal next year is to get the pole.:lol:
