    Tangentially related to Christmas cheer: Blue is not a Christmas colour, there is absolutely nothing creepier and uncheerful than all blue Christmas lights.

    I take my Christmas lights very seriously.

    You have to wire up the inside of the box so it all lights up when he opens it.

    but if you mix blue strands with white strands you get the beautiful and touching effect of a snow covered pine! The ultimate in Christmas Cheer!

    I could hug you right now.

    When I see a house covered in blue lights, I always assume they're Jewish. It's either that or they're just bad at Christmas.

    I always thought blue gave it that wintery look, and not neccisarily Christmas.

    Colored old fashioned huge bulbs are the best. I'm not a big fan of the new led lights, although they are damn bright.

    Blue makes me think of the TARDIS, and Dr. Who has lots of great Christmas specials, ergo blue is a great Christmas color! Also, while recovering from eye surgery I burned through about 2 series and now I'm sad that I'm on the last series that Netflix has.

    That line is a running joke in our household. Anytime shoes are brought up, someone is obligated to make a crack about seeing Jesus.

    okay, Santee. The last of your gifts arrived today and they are SPECTACULAR. So, once I get this all wrapped they should be heading your way. Hopefully, you'll have them by the end of next week, depending on how much blood UPS demands for their services.

    Going to be posting my santas gift on Monday. Im pleased with it, I think I covered all the bases. One gift I know they'll like, one gift Im pretty sure they'll like, one gift that im unsure about but is totally different from what they are probably expecting but I feel suits their interests and a few little bits and pieces.

    @cj iwakura yeah there's an English release too - it's actually the last Saturn game ever released over here.

    Unfortunately that version is crazy rare, and I wasn't sure you could play PAL anyway. ;D

    So the creative thing I did for Santee, I had my daughter with me and she did a similar project. When Santee get's his gift (which should be shipped Mondayish), I think I'm going to post images of her efforts. It could be just proud dad mode, but for having little practice, it turned out pretty good.

    I was going to post something about people being way too nervous about not getting their Christmas presents out in time, what with it only being thanksgiving week. Then I remember that I did it so quickly because I was in a panic about them not getting out soon enough. So, yeah.

    A second GoGbomb showed up in my inbox today from @Elkatas. Along with a PM from him telling me to check my inbox, which is good because I'm a moron and forgot to remove the filter that automatically marks GoG emails as "read". :P

    I'm going to have to leave in a little while so instead of making a rushed gift post, I'm waiting until later in the day so I can do it right the first time.

    Okay, I might have drank too much eggnog last night, which prompted the video of the song-that-shall-not-be-named. As a way to apologize, I present you this one;

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD2V6VvmBEo

    My girlfriend introduced me to the movie a couple of years ago, and it's become a yearly tradition to watch it on Thanksgiving to get us ready for the Christmas season. This year, even though we're in two completely different states, we're keeping the tradition alive by watching it and keeping Skype on.

    I love all those movies, but Love Actually is THE MOVIE, guys.

    I mean, it's got Bill Nighy as an aging rock star with the best Christmas song outside of Father Christmas. It's got Hugh Grant as the Prime Minister hooking up with his cute intern. It's got Liam Neeson not murdering anyone. It's got the dude from the Walking Dead also not murdering anyone. It's got hardcore pornography. It's got, well, everything.
