31 Blogs of Christmas
Day 18

Earlier this week I bummed you out with 5 depressing Christmas songs. So as an antidote, I present a high 5 list of Christmas songs to make you laugh. These songs are funny ON PURPOSE.

Disclaimer: I would have included the Star Trek TNG Let it Snow/Make it So video, but I did a whole blog about that too. But just know it otherwise would have made this list (knocking out Lonely Island)

Minty, The Candy Cane

When Conan first came back to television after the Tonight Show kerfuffle, I was a religious viewer. Hands down my favorite bit was this gag about a candy cane that fell on the ground. The song is kind of funny, but the tune is great! I only wish there were more versus. Read the rest of this entry »

If you’re planning a holiday pizza party, I’ve got some (un)friendly advice for you: don’t invite the vegetarians.

Look vegetarians, I’m sure you’re nice people and there is no doubt great merit to your life style choice, but it makes a pizza party suuuuuuuuck. I was recently at a pizza party for close to a hundred people. They got equal numbers of meat pizzas and veggie pizzas.

Here’s the last peperoni pizza box after about 15-20 minutes…

Now here’s one of the veggie pizza boxes 15-20 minutes AFTER THE PARTY WAS OVER!!!

And oh if that were the only vegetarian offering still around afterward. There were plenty more but I was getting strange looks for taking the pictures.

All that waste of perfectly good crust and dough on worthless vegetables. A pizza party is no time to eat healthy, people. You’ve lost. Just give up and let me have my meat.

Happy ****ing holidays!

Day 16

Several blogs ago, I talked about the Christmas song “Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer” and how its way more depressing than you remember. But that’s not the only song waiting to bum you out during the holidays. Here are 5 more songs that might be the reason that some people get so depressed this time of year…

Blue Christmas

Sure it’s a classic, but it’s about how the King will be spending Christmas alone pining for his ex. Not exactly yuletide cheer.

Most depressing lyrics:
When those blue snowflakes start fallin’
That’s when those blue memories start callin’ Read the rest of this entry »

Day 15

I’d love to give you guys a big thoughtful blog, but it’s almost midnight and I’ve just realized I still haven’t hung the stockings yet.

How did I forget that? Where is Santa gonna put all my pocket sized knick knacks?

If you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to figure out how I’m going to hang these giant stockings on these laughably small hooks I bought.

Whenever I hear “Deck the Halls” I always think of this old commercial.

I played it for my wife and she’d never heard of it. So anyone else remember this?

Day 13

As I mentioned on the last show, I just got made permanent at my job. So today there was a little ceremony where they introduced all the new permanent hires at the weekly company meeting. The company CEO brought me up to say a few awkward words and this was what I came up with, “Hey it’s great to be here. I love [this company]. I love Christmas. Oh…and I love to party!”

Did it get a laugh? Yes. But immediately after he took the mic away, I wished I had waited a beat after he put the mic in my face and said…

It might not have gone over that great, but what a great moment!

Day 12

YouTube recently posted a video called “2013 Rewind.” Sort of a mish-mash of all the big events from the past year. I recognized so few things, it’s more than a little sad. I recon=gnized maybe 4 songs in there, a few faces, and a couple viral videos. It’s not like I don’t spend time on the internet. I’m online for hours everyday both for work and pleasure. Yet somehow, mot of this still past me by. How about you? Do you remember this crap?
