      You disappoint me using a US pop culture reference. (Am I doing this right?)

      I air my grievances out all year long, so there’s not too much to get through on Festivus 😌

    Boy, has the need to escape the commercialization of Christmas only increased since 1997 (eg, black Friday). Thankfully, there’s a Festivus for the rest of us, of course. I did some holiday shopping today, and didn’t face much busyness and crowdedness. It was a Festivus miracle

      Well, Happy Solstice, naturally ☺️ but Solstice (winter for those in the north :) is Dec 21st, whereas Festivus is Dec 23rd. More holidays = better :D

    I’m sick of Canada being better than us. I want America to stop fucking sucking.

    I’ve been quite active lately at work, so I expect to perform quite well at the feats of strength.

    Are gonna do feats of strength too? Happy Festivus and Mery Christmas for the rest.

    Ps: I liked from that episode Elaine saying “Hey, I was in a shvitz for 6 hours. Give me a break.”
