Happy Christmas Everybody!

Topic

Our first Christmas on the Carrier so I thought it was worth a little extra festive cheer with a dedicated thread.

Happy Christmas to everyone and thanks again to Gar for setting this place up and keeping it running in an ever-improving form.

Here’s to lots more in 2020.

I hope Mr. Santy Claus brings you all a pony.

May your day shine brighter than Shane Black twinkly lights. 

 

Nadolig Llawen and Selamat Hari Natal, presents already opened here. Time to gorge on turkey very soon.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to my favorite bunch of beautiful, caring, and talented misfits!!

Merry Christmas. And for all Spanish speakers…

Heh. And to imagine that there are people who think that the internet is a bad thing. I mean, come on! Two decades in, the Alien Christmas memes are really top-notch.

A very special Christmas message!

 

God Jul!

Everybody?

Well Afflux was two weeks ago but I just assume you pagans include it in Christmas

Due to the fierce right bent in the forum we are clearly on one side of the War on Christmas!

There is some irony in the fact that the board’s one right-winger is pointing that out

I’ll make you a deal:

If you don’t vote for Trump then I won’t wish you a Merry Christmas.

Donarudo Toranpu towanchi-towanchi!

Awwww. Jerry is just looking in the mirror: we’re all a reflection of you. (Give yourselves a Christmas gift and read Stoner if you haven’t already. It’s Murakamically good).

And much gratitude to the lovely Mr. Garjones for the good ship Carrier. She’s a very fine Boaty McBoatface. I suspect her middle name is Serenity. ( We’re in a parallel universe: Firefly is still flying). Hope you and yours have the best Christmas.

Permission to come aboard; oh captain, my captain,

sincerely,

B  x0x

The Principia Discordia is quite clear on the major paganisms of our day.

Humbug.

Yes please.

I know!

I always associate Stoner with you because you shared that story about your daughter before. The same day I was walking by a charity shop and a copy was in the window. It wasn’t there the day before. I know because I stopped to get a very nice edition of Madam Bovary.

The story would be better if it had been a copy of Needful Things.

I also know Stoner is Ethan Hawke’s favourite book. At least, I think I know.

Jerry is clearly Neo played by Ethan Hawke.

This is how senility begins….

Nope. It’s because David wrote, “Humbug.”

Stoner is such a quiet, gentle read. And then there are the gut-punch truths.

I’m trying to think of its theme song. Maybe The Gaslight Anthem’s Stay Vicious.
