Take A Good Look Baby, The Grinch Train Has Left The Station.


Ahh, the Holiday season. It makes me feel miserable. The whole idea of the holidays has become such a corporate thing that companies plan their whole fiscal year around one month. It's ridiculous. Instead of spending more time with family, we spend it doing other things. And spending ungodly amounts of money in order to have a "good" christmas. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the gifts. But, I could honestly live without them. Hence why I never buy joe a gift, hey man we understand each other, we buy ourselves something and call it good, well at least I do, if he hasn't that's his own fault.

But still, we've gotten away from the true meaning of Christmas. Ya know, getting a day off of work. Hallejiuah!! A National Day Off of Work for Most!! WooHoo!!!

But, of course others see it as, ya, know, the Birth of Christ. The day Jesus was born, which really didn't happen in December, it really would've happened in the spring if we wanna look at acturate details, But the churches celebrate other stuff in the spring so they just decided to have something in the winter to feel good about the end of the year.

Then there's the Jews. Or as I call them Joos. And their holiday. Ya know that one. The one that SNL Jewish guys sings about every year. Yea, that one.

I was going somewhere with all this, but I forgot where I was going. Yea, so holidays suck.
