I’ve been hearing a lot of bells ringing a lot lately. I don’t know if it’s the ringing in my ears or if it is Grinch stalking us on the roof waiting to steal all my stuff as soon as we leave the house, but it sure is making it hard for me to concentrate on being Scrougey for the Christmas season.
You know what would make me feel bitter about this? How about some Friday Giftures holiday season edition. That would sure put me in a better foul mood.
So here we go:
So…
…that’s why he keeps giving me springs and gears for Christmas.
Also why Rudolph seems….
…a little less reindeer and lot more reincat.
And Santa has set up some elaborate traps…
…to catch kids.
I didn’t know that indoor sledding was a thing…
…looks like something I should try…to get hurt.
I guess some people like to flip out…
…when Santa doesn’t make it to their house.
Sounds like every…
…Christmas party I’ve ever been to.
Nothing beats a good getting woken up…
…in the middle of the night by Santa story.
Perhaps Santa can try a new method…
…of getting around this year.
Maybe Santa can have a team of…
…reindogs that can fly like this.
And isn’t it always great…
…to have drop in visitor at the holidays?
Especially the ones…
…that interrupt you when you are talking.
And ones that despite asking nicely…
…still insist on breaking your plates.
So there you have it. Hopefully all these things won’t happen to you this holiday season, because if they did you just might be a little bitter.
ARRRGGGHHHH

The Trump one is brilliant! As are the others, but that one in particular. I can only wish my Christmas will be so bitter. But I know my family won’t let me down when it comes to that.

Yep, I get to go to my parents house in Southern Utah, who are the ones who made Thanksgiving so memorable in a bad way. So I can’t wait. It should be interesting.

It’s so bad, I wonder if I would be as of a sadistic soul if wasn’t preprogrammed by Friday night binges of AFV. 😉 But what choice did a young tot have, Bob Saget was my first ever heart throb.
LikeLike
Yes, AFV is pretty much an inspiration for my Friday Giftures. The only difference is that Bob got paid big bucks to present them and I get paid the zero bucks.

I’d like to know what got him riled up prior to the excellent edit job. Probably the wind wafting through his Tang colored hair.

I’m sure it was a bird that was trying to poop on his hair. And I’m sure everyone was probably wishing they were the bird at that moment.

Yes, the amount of hair product that he uses apparently could become an entirely new source of energy.

That would be great because he is stealing a lot of those sources. Like the sun, to make sure his skin is so orange.
