Happy Festivus!

December 23rd is Festivus! "A festivus for the rest of us!"

Here is a primer for those uninitiated with this holiday.

Love the "Airing of The Grievances"

Happy Festivus!

Here's a festivus pole that was set-up in the Florida state Capitol building.

The naked-oiled-up-airing-of-grievances starts right after the turkey fryer explosion.

I would think being "naked and oiled-up" would be more appropriate for the "Feats of Strength." It would give it a Turkish oil wrestling-type flair.

You're right, I had my festivus activities backwards. Shame too, cause I just studied that episode last night.

Apparently they also allowed a chair with a pile of spaghetti to be displayed along side the nativity scene and festivus pole, so they'll be food for all followers.

I'm not sure if I should rejoice and respect a state that acknowledges the church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, or if I should just stand back and watch from a distance.

Bwah! The Festivus pole is made from PBR cans! Is that a Hipster Festivus Pole?

 

[EpcoTim]

Yeah. Pabst. I posted a picture of it earlier.

Not sure if it's hipsters or not. This was in Florida. Not sure how well skinny jeans and ironic winter hats in summertime go with sweltering heat and humidity. This may have just been a guy on meth who just happened too steal a case of pabst by accident.

Oops, I didn't realize the first photo was a Festivus Pole constructed from PBR cans. I didn't know what it was. And, yeah, I'm guessing the use of PBR cans is not meant to be an ironic gesture.
