You're not destroying the Earth any more by buying a Christmas tree than you are by buying an ear of corn.

And Christmas trees are harvested between 3-6 years of age, so that much maligned video about the death of an old growth tree has no bearing, Mr. Vod.

your logic severely negatively impacts my smart-ass attempts at minor shit stirring and humor.:)
i am aware of tree farms, but I was pretending to be an overly sensitive hippie douche.

I know- but as an Oregonian I had to speak up for our economy amidst so much tree hating.

And hippies here buy Christmas trees.

Ha!

I love the irony. New Hampshire, too, has its fair share of tree farms and hypocritical hippies


Wait, does that make them Hyppies?

fake is better...then your cats don't fuck it up and get pine needles everywhere

though real trees do smell so good. But not worth it.

That's the sensation I get when I bite into a York Peppermint Patty!



I love Christmas Trees, Christmas music, and generally everything about the holiday season INCLUDING the rush (I'm one of those 3 AM Black Friday shoppers even!).

Yeah, I'm the same way.
I think my favorite thing about the holiday season is those nights where the snow is a thick blanket all over the ground, and the moon reflects off the surface and illuminates the sky in a white-grey glow.

I love to just stand out on the front porch and take it in.

I love the smell of napalm in the morning.





not really.......I never smelt it .....sorry...just a stupid movie reference.

What retailer sells it. I NEED THAT ALBUM !!! lol.. seriously I need to get the album. I never thought about buying the dvd it's just tradition for me to catch it on tv. I like the Misfit song, We are Santa's elves, When Christmas Day is Here-the most wonderful day of the year, and a few others.

I got the Rudolph soundtrack at Target a couple of years ago, it was like six dollars. You could probably search and find one at Amazon for less, used...

I work in special effects, and I like to annoy the folks in the workshops by playing the "We are Santa's elves" song that goes something like...

We are Santa's Elves
Filling Santa's shelves...
With a toy for each girl and boy,
Oh we are Santa's Elves!
Ho ho ho, ho ho ho.
We are Santa's Elves.
