No way! That sounds awesome!

Maybe they're big fans of 'The Nightmare Before Christmas?'

Oh god damn yes! I was wondering if I'd ever be lucky enough to see someone deck out an entire house with a great Nightmare Before Christmas set up.

Last year the creepy Wicker Man we made for Halloween stayed up and got decked out in the finest pagan regalia for Yule.

I love that.

I drove by a house the other day that had one of those huge 12 foot tall skeletons. The gave him a christmas hat and scarf, and put up in front of him a giant inflatable that looks like a balloon dog. they made a leash out of christmas lights.
I think it's great. no reason why you can't mix the two holidays, either by laziness or design.

Put a Santa hat on the skeleton, have a broken sleigh at the bottom of the tree, and you’ve got Christmas.

did you buy all of us a bag? No? You bastard. You know we need it. You should have just bought us all some! ####in male rooster sucking bastard mother####er. (testing the hash tag theory) Seriously, c$%Ksucker is not censored?

On another note, get a bunch of empty sugar bags, insert clay, sell for $10 per bag. Two problems solved.

Time to be inundated by well-wishers who think Canada and US share the same Thanksgiving Day date.

I think I have only bothered to respond once that we already had our TG back in October, and expectedly they did not seem to really care.

A Thanksgiving so close to Christmas is stupid. full stop.

Just right-clicked on my computer's recycle bin and absent mindedly hit 'empty.' 15 gigs deleted. No way that's not coming back to bite me at some point. WTF did I have in there?

Nothings ever really gone. You can use this program called “Recuva” to get them back, if you actually care and didn’t mean to dump a bunch of stuff into your recycle bin and then empty it.
