More office holiday party fun! Police in Traverse City were called to break up a fight between party attendees costumed as the Grinch and a reindeer. Which one of Santa’s reindeer wasn’t specified, but I’m hoping it was Comet. He’s had it coming for a long time.
But could the Grinch really win against a reindeer? They’re strong and horned. But the Grinch has opposable thumbs and no doubt fights dirty. What do you think, Deadsplinters?
…my money’s on the grinch
…although…I guess it depends on how well I’m interpreting seuss cartoons in terms of what size he’d be relative to a reindeer?
I think you’re right. Google tells me that reindeer, especially the domesticated kind, aren’t very dangerous.
Unless Rudolph can shoot lasers from his glowing nose, he has no chance against the Grinch.
What if he had back up?
Christmas in South Plainfield looks like a decent film. Where can I score a copy?
Police believe the incident was fueled by alcohol consumption and not the size of either man’s heart.
okay..thats pretty funny
The jokes write themselves, lol.
The cops should have called Santa for backup…
I may have to brave the theater to see this. It looks so good!
Let us know if you do! I’m waiting until I can stream it. Hopefully before Xmas. It’s getting really good reviews which are presented as a “surprise hit”.
if it’s streaming that soon I’ll probably wait. Did you get your boba tea today?
I didn’t. Instead we went on a long walk. I’m hoping it’s more than Braxton Hicks contractions that I’m experiencing. Fingers crossed!
🤞🏼
Raging Rudolph all the way
A Christmas viewing tradition in my house!
Breaking: Argentina benefits from flopping all over the pitch for 120 minutes making it through to flop around again in the semi-final.
Are you rooting for Argentina?
Do I look like the referee?
fwiw i meant to drop this btl on the dot and intended not to shit on everyone’s happy hour!
woops!
*snort*
eh…it was a fun match…and argentina was the stronger side for like….80 minutes
then the dutch went super sayan for 10 to equalize
and im like…fuck you..why werent you playing like this the whole match?
and then we lost on penalties…..proud dutch tradition that
anyways…im still legally british so ive got one more day of world cup at least
it’s easy to be the stronger side for 80 minutes when even Argentinian announcers were wondering if the ref was a Messi fan being way too leniant on Argentina and way too harsh on Nederland…which, clearly, he was.
odd ref for sure….quick to hand out cards….but hardly considers anything a foul
was fun watching the rain of yellows
it dont matter to me….come monday im going spend my day riling up my coworkers about the wonky ref and the wierd strategy calls and how it was all bullshit
and then watching them foam at the mouth as they get worked up about it
whilst i dont really give a fuck….little annoyed at missing out on the victory parties
but i’ll live
I truly admire your IRL trolling aspirations.
people kept telling me i need a hobby 🙂
Krampus for the win. A local cemetery has “pictures with Krampus” as a holiday fundraiser. Very goth.

I would have my picture taken with Krampus in a heartbeat!
I can’t believe this is even up for debate.
For one, the Grinch learned his lesson! Ok? Ok!
Two, reindeer are docile.
Neither the reindeer nor the Grinch would be up for fighting. Only stupid humans dressed as them would and for that I say they’re both losers because as adults they should, as a licensed child educator would say, “use their words.”
Grown men in costumes at an office party with lots of booze. It was bound to happen.
I went to a local coffee shop to get a back of their seasonal blend for a friend’s Christmas gift.
OH NO OH DARN I just had to get an iced coffee and blueberry muffin while I was there.
I would have done the same thing
I’m a Grinch stan, obvs.
How long did that take?
To make or set up? I’ve got setup down to a couple of hours.
Making is a MUCH more difficult question to answer. I started making them when my daughter was 5 or 6, and she’s 20 now. Originally I made the Grinch, Max, and Cindy Lou Who, and hung them on my garage. That was … unsatisfactory. I used to travel a lot, and we’d get storms that knocked them down while I was out of town. I switched to a yard display and made the tree and couple more Whos. I’ve added to the Whos every year (that’s not the most current set).
But that doesn’t answer your question, really. My good friend down the block asked for a Grinch and I made one for her this year. It probably took about 8-10 hours total. You have to do things and then let them dry, set, etc. So it was a week and a half, start to finish, but the actual time working on one Grinch is probably 8-10 hours.
The Whos take significantly less time. Except for Doctor Who (not pictured) because I had to make both him and a Tardis. I need to find more current photos.
Last year’s pictures:
You earned that 1st place.
That’s fantastic!
And, of course, we went to ICE this year at the Gaylord Palms, featuring the Grinch. Because as noted, I <heart> the Grinch. This is my daughter in front of one of the ice sculptures. “And the Grinch, he himself, carved the roast beast.”
Nice that she still enjoys doing these things with you. And she’s very pretty.
