The Swamp

Thanks for a great year. 12 months of strong conversation, and plenty of laughs.

Have a Merry Christmas. (There, I said it)

Or a Happy Chanukkah.

It's not Christmas until Kirsty and Shane sing.

Just rented Christmas Vacation on Amazon because I can't be bothered to find our DVD copy. Enjoy your disposable income while you got it guys!

I've watched it atleast thrice.

Tonight, my favorite tiny moment is Chevy's hand movements on the ladder. I say Chevy, because I can't imagine that was scripted.

Oh, and I swear on all that is considered holy that up until this year I thought the lyric was "mele kalikimaka is a wise way", not "Hawaii's way". Duh.

Nitpicky, although that's the most you can really do with a 10/10 movie, if the ceiling is already broken, why wouldn't he just slide out of the attic?

Holy shit on rass' revelation! "Hawai'i's way"? Never knew. Also, yes on the busted ceiling. Why not wriggle out there?

We've done well this year. Already watched CV, Love Actually, Elf, The Family Stone, and Polar Express. We'll turn on Christmas Story for a portion of TBS' marathon tonight or tomorrow. The question is what we'll throw on tonight. Home Alone? Christmas Vacation again (first time for the 9 & 10 year old)? Scrooged?

I've never seen Christmas Vacation.

Aye, merry Christmas and happy hannakuh to all.

The Family Stone? Ugh. Fuck that movie. All Sarah Jessica Parker was trying to do was try and be a part of the family, and everyone were total dicks to her. Rachel McAdams was an immense cunt. I fucking hate that movie like I hate Happy Christmas War is Over.

Merry Christmas, you filthy bastards.

Maybe SJP should have been less of a homophobic, racist bitch from Bedford and let her freak flag fly a little earlier in the film. She could've ended up with Everett.

I'd be curious to know if an adult watching it for the first time likes it or if I'm biased because its a ~20 year tradition at this point.

I can tolerate most Christmas songs, but that one, along with "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" make me mean fightin' mad.

It's a national treasure

My family binges hobbit and lotr during holiday season.

Hey, there are elves!

We also watch it's a wonderful life on Christmas Eve every year.

Merry Christmas to those celebrating today. <3

Looks a lot like Rudy Ray Moore there.
