It's a Festivus for the Restivus!



Seriously though, I really hate Christmas, since next year I will be living alone, I think I'm going to celebrate Festivus at my house, maybe some of my siblings, friends, and foreign students who are on campus could come (the house I will be living in is within 5 blocks of the college I will be going to)




Also, do you think that the Feats of Strength has to be trying to pin the head of the family, I got the impression that was just what Frank chose for that year.

No, although I did once try Ben & Jerry's Festivus ice cream. :p

Pretty good, but it made you kind of sick to eat a whole bowl of it. It was a gingerbread flavor, and it had something in it, like nuts or cookie, but I don't remember what it was.

Some teenagers I work with celebrate Festivus on Dec. 21st for the last 3 or so years. I was telling them about this thread and they told me (seriously) how they get food, a pole, etc. Crazy, but harmless.

I dont know if that was a typo, or their mistake, but Festivus is the 23rd ;)

Thanks for the info. I thought the kid told me the 21st. I will update him on the facts.

Damn teenagers. They are probably on drugs.

Festivus is my favorite holiday. Frank and Estelle invite me over every year. ;)

I have a friend who seriously considered celebrating Festivus until someone talked him out of it.

As much as I love Seinfeld... Festivus is just too stupid a holiday to be worth celebrating.

(I can just hear the startled gasps, in unison, of every member on this board now.)

With all the fighting with my wife and our two families about what house we are going over for Christmas, celebrating Festivus doesn't seem half bad.

I like to call this my "festivus" pole. I really just use it for physical support.:lol: :lol:

Tell me about it Brian.

Nice Pole GEO, sturdy and straight, yet not too distracting!
By the way, is it always there, and what the heck is it doing in the middle of the room? :lol:
