More importantly, Paigow would have spelled "cunnilingus" correctly. She always spelled big words correctly, it was the shorter, more common words that would trip her up.

Fringey was not a student of P's game, obviously.

Things with "Yankee" in the title are usually classy, like Yankee Candle and that movie about Geo. M. Cohan.

There is a baseball team that is an exception to you general rule.

I recall how nothing would get The Paigow's hackles raised like calling the Civil War "The War of Northern Aggression." She knew I just did it to tease her, but it still got her going every time.

Really? I am not familiar with that team. And where is your pal Ironweed today?

<sniff> indeed. I remember how she liked to call it "The War That Allowed The Blacks to Get Tables Near Me in Restaurants and Talk Too Loud And Make Inappropriate Comments about My Ass When I Go to the Restroom." She always wondered why that didn't catch on like her spinster schtick. She felt insluted by the snub, but I found it too cumbersome, even when abbreviated to TWTATBTGTNMIRATTLAMICAMAWIGTTR.

She has a ridiculous stomach, but it looks weird there. I like it better here, but maybe it's a subconscious desire to see Tyra's body at her best:

If I were to guess, I would say it's a gift exchange involving the "regifting" of unwanted items.

Everybody brings a wrapped gift (often, "classy") and puts it under the tree. Everyone pulls a number from a hat to determine order. The first person picks a gift and unwraps it. Each subsequent person can either choose the gift someone before them received - sending the other person back to the tree - or choosing a package from under the tree themselves.

Obviously, higher numbers are better.

For a tradition surrounding a holiday of peace and goodwill, it can be very cutthroat.

Indeed you are correct.

I suspect that the rules vary, but here's the way the game was played at Big Ed's last week.

Each person who wants to participate brings a wrapped gift. The concept is that you bring something that you received and don't want, but some people just like to buy random weird stuff to bring. Like that fish mounted on a plaque that sings "Take Me To The River." Or the big t-shirt that has a bikini-clad hottie's body air-brushed on it, or the Hulk Hogan biography.

The participants then draw numbers -- the person who gets "1" selects and opens the first gift. The person who draws "2" can either pick and open a new present, or take the present from person 1 and so on. Under Big Ed's rules, a gift gets retired after the third steal, and at the end of it all, person 1 can take anyone else's (Not Retired) gift.

It sounds cheesy, but it is fun. And one man's junk is another man's treasure -- I was very happy to end up with a copy of the Chieftans' Christmas CD. Mrs. Not Bob was less thrilled with the set of Santa Claus martini glasses, but her office is having the same sort of exhange at their holiday luncheon on Friday, so she has something to bring.

I got #3. It was cutthroat and the devestation (hi PLF!) wreaked was indescribable. A mess of blood, wrapping paper and battleship pieces.

instant holiday classic "I Want To Rock You Hard This Christmas" --
safe for work unless people at your work would be offended by the lyric "Have a very merry motherfuckin Christmas" in the chorus.

FYI, this is the sort of thing that can lead to the greatness that is the Sashimi Tabernacle Choir.

The website doesn't at all capture how truly awesome it is to see 250 singing bass do "Day-O." Especially when the lobsters get involved and start dancing.

Is this news to anyone who ever owned a Barbie doll?

Hi! :)

My guess is that he is still walking to work.

Ah, the first Xmas in-house. Don't worry, dear, by next year you'll have figured out how to play the system and take the last two weeks off as well.

I saw him on his bike this morning, puffing away.

eta stp

No. Although in my house the first one to suffer was Skipper, the totally asexual little sister. As if her total lack of curves and the cursedness of being Barbie's plain little sister weren't enough, I made it worse by cutting off her long blonde hair.

Who came first, Skipper or Jan Brady?

You got the puffing away part correct, at least.

Things you learn when you stay at home
 

The DHL guy just literally threw a package on our doorstep. I don't think he got closer than 8 feet away before tossing it. Good thing it's only a picture frame. I actually tried to catch him to give him a "what the fuck" look, but he sped off so fast he probably killed a few squirrels and neighborhood cats.

I always thought DHL was more chic than UPS or FedEx. I'm so disappointed.

That puppy is so damn cute. Dog babies are so much cuter than human babies.

What's better than smoking on your Segway as you run down pedestrians on the Brooklyn Bridge? "Ooops, sorry -- suckers!"

Uh, how much are those nano thingies?
 

A link on Yahoo: "Get an iPod nano with a low interest Citibank Home Equity Line of Credit. Get Details."

WTF? Isn't Citibank the one with all the billboards about spending responsibly? This kinda undercuts their ad campaign as the bank that encourages fiscal responsibility.

Uh, how much are those nano thingies?
 

I imagine the nano is the freebie that comes with the line of credit.

Certainly Jobs is skilled at getting us to spend money, but I don't think the nano's quite that expensive.

Uh, how much are those nano thingies?
 

Christ, my reading comp sucks.

Or, I'm poor.

Or, both.

Uh, how much are those nano thingies?
 

Citibank has the billboards that encourage fiscal irresponsibility - i.e., "no one is going to run down the stairs and hug you at the office," and "no one has ever romantically split a piece of pie chart," and "trade smiles". I hate them all. In fact, today I hate everyone. Just about. Not you fringey. Or anyone else posting today. You are keeping me entertained.

This one is much better than the first you posted. She was sucking in her stomach in the first one, which made it look weird because it doesn't need sucking in. And in the first one her hipbones stuck out too much; skinny is one thing but the protruding hipbones in the first picture just make me want to feed her.

I hate those hypocritical, mealy-mouthed Citibank ads. I pass at least five of them every day, and believe me Citibank isn't thinking that "the most important bonds are human" when they're charging me $1.50 to use their ATM. Live richly my ass.
