...well, yes.

see, this is why nobody is really offended by saying “Merry Christmas” to one another... I’m about as atheist as it gets and I have no problem with theists wishing me a merry Christmas. To them it may mean something about Jesus and all that, but to me they’re wishing that I spend merry day with my family, which is a…

After I came out as atheist to my parents in high school, that December they tried playing the “So why do we still celebrate this if you don’t believe the story behind it, hmm?” card. Without missing a beat, I responded with how American Christmas—as we celebrated it, anyway—is about family and togetherness (and…

I’ve also derived great pleasure showing unsuspecting Asian tourists how to operate them. Feel good knowing you’ve had such positive, meaningful impact in someone’s life.

My wife has called hotels to ask about their breakfast array. Go out west where there is a lot of hiking and they have better spreads. Stayed at a hotel in Moab that had three different dispensers. The first morning I thought it was just extra batter, but i’ll be damned if one wasn’t blueberry and the other was like…

There’s all sorts of cool pagan stuff in there as well as the good secular Christmas as well. Jesus doesn’t come into it at all the way I do it.

I’m a big old liberal atheist who celebrates the shit of muscular, American consumer X-mas.

Congrats on getting me to laugh during the middle of an important work call.

He will never get a smart phone from me. The only phone he will get is a dumb phone prepaid that can text and call.

We have a local tree guy that comes in the Saturday after Thanksgiving, sets up shop in a empty lot next to CVS until the weekend before Christmas. Looks like he replants them in the lot, then cuts the one you pick, nets it, and you get a free tequila shot. I like this guy.

“I have a 4 year old and don’t expect any more children.”

I bought a fake wife for many of the same reasons.

Marshalls, guys. Marshalls. They ALWAYS have Le Creuset. Not always the one you are looking for, but if you aren’t picky, you can score. I have a red Le Creuset cocotte (a lidded cast iron enameled casserole pot) that I bought like 18 years ago and must use three times a week at least. Boiling pasta, roasting…

I just like that they had to explain the inspiration behind your ’Twas The Night Before Christmas soup tureen.

They look as if they’re protecting their snow nuts.

One minute everyone is excited for dipping fresh strawberries and banana hunks. The next? Little Chadwick is in the ER with third degree chocolate burns on his nutsack.

I’m fucking dying over here. You should know, my wife and her friends had a Facebook thread the other day wondering when this post would be up. Merry…

Three items in, and there’s already two potential trips to the ER. I was almost surprised the fourth item was plates, as opposed to a set of tartan knives with knives for handles.

I don’t think I’m comfortable with the only Jewish item in this catalog being made by fucking Nordic Ware.

I think I look forward to this article every year with increasingly more anticipation than I do actual Christmas.

LOL the Le Creseut pots. I moved into a new place earlier this year and my mom gave me her whole set as a housewarming gift - and as a reason for her to buy new ones. Fuck, when I found out how much they were worth I sold them all and used the money to fund my upcoming vacation to Europe and buy some cheap,…
