Free For All Posted December 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 Now watching It's a Wonderful Life for the gazillionth time. I'm sorry, there's no way that phono turntable had enough torque to also make the chicken rotisserie turn. This movie is ruined for me now. Plus, the "evil" Bedford Falls (aka Pottersville) is where all the clubs/gigs are. Also, the spinster/librarian Donna Reed is still pretty hot. Pottersville > Bedford Falls. Discuss.

GA Russell Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 This was a beef of mine only one time, and then I learned. Times have changed. When I was growing up, the stores charged their highest prices of the year during the four weeks before Christmas, knowing that you had to buy something. The week after Christmas was when everything left was put on sale. So we would take our Christmas present money and go shopping. Now the sales are before Christmas, and there is nothing left to buy with your Christmas money. So my beef was getting money on Christmas after the sales had ended! I suppose that the new system is preferable because for the same amount of money I can give more to my family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillF Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 On holiday beefs, I can't better MG. A classic post that deserves a re-run: I don't usually have one but this year, some fucking dog has shat on our front lawn and it's freezing. The turd has frozen to the lawn and the ground's so hard that, even if I could get it off the grass, I couldn't dig a hole under the hedge to bury it. So, until the weather warms up, we have to put up with the sight of a turd on the lawn. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
