A Golden World

I’m a screw up. Try to keep that in mind.

Holiday filler

Posted by Jeff on Saturday, 8 December, 2007

Because the better half won’t let me out of it…

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Since egg nog makes me want to hurl, it will have to be hot chocolate. Though probably after my manditory 7 cups of coffee first.

2. Does Santa wrap the presents or just sit them under the tree? Santa, the anagram for Satan, who in Christian mythology is simply a fallen angel, uses presents to buy the souls of little children to do his nefarious bidding against the many, contrary faiths around the planet. And since I’m far from Christian, Satan simply does not visit, as my soul is far more educated.

3. Coloured or white lights? White lights diffused with colour correction gels propped with C-stands and loads of beach.

4. Do you hang mistletoe? No. Dawn doesn’t need that plant for motivation.

5. When do you put your decorations up? I don’t. Dawn does, and I can’t help her. She’s determined to decorate the tree herself. However, when we get bigger digs, I’ll have my own, seperate tree when we get bigger digs, and will be a tribute to the birth of Mithra, to which the current celebration of Christmas is copied from.

6. What is your favorite holiday dish? Mmmm… sweet Stella Artois.

7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child? Hmmm. Probably any time we went skiing in and around that holiday. SKIING!!!!

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? At school, some kids a few years older decided to dispell the myth (which I was already very wary of, as it made no logical sense) to have my reaction be their amusement. Yet more cementing of the sheer fact Christianity is so wrong.

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Not really. My cousins opened one gift, which was pyjamas, on Christmas Eve, but that was it.

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree? When I have my own, probably with pentacles, dragons, and pagan iconography.

11. Snow: Love it or hate it? DUH! SKIING!!!!!!!!!

12. Can you ice skate? Years of playing hockey? You decide.

13. Do you remember your favorite gift? Offhand no. My parents did have a good read on me though. Most gifts hit the mark.

14. What’s the most important thing about the Holidays for you? Family. It’s what it’s always been about. The whole Christ thing never factored into it.

15. What is your favorite holiday dessert? More beer.

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition? Well, the obvious which I’m trying to re-kindle. SKIING!!!!!!

17. What is on top of your tree? Dawn’s tree, a gold star. When I get mine, I dunno. Maybe a mock-up of a Viper Mark II. Yep, I’m a dork.

18. Which do you like best giving or receiving? I’d like the resources to give more, so ask me when that’s the case.

19. What is your favorite Christmas Song? Don’t go for the whole caroling thing. For movies, can’t beat The Nightmare Before Christmas. Also like the Trailer Park Boys Christmas Special.

20. Do you like candy canes? Not really. Always found them too sticky to eat.

21. Snowman or Snow Angel?? Snowman. Anatomically correct, for that.
