Notes from a Crotty Family Christmas Dinner...
My family is amazing. We have the *best* dinner conversations ever-- mostly because we're all a bit off. Here are some notes from today's Christmas dinner:
- Want to track Santa? There's an app for that!
- Teddy Bears & chocolate are only acceptable gifts for significant others if the significant other in question is female. IF the Significant other is male, this will only serve to convince your cousins & siblings that your boyfriend is in fact gay.
- Want to know how many sunspots have appeared in the last 24 hours? There's an app for that!
- Nerf guns are the preferred manly gift of choice for the younger generations of the Crotty family. Sports-team-related items are acceptable. The previous generation prefers war movies.
- Need to find magnetic north? There's an app for that!
- The DROID is the coolest cell phone ever made.
- The only acceptable Magnum, PI is Tom Seleck.
- Want to escape the zombie hordes? There's an app for that!
- The zombie horde app should not be used whilst driving. IT is suspected that "But that intersection was full of zombies!" would not be an acceptable excuse for running a red light.
- Want to check the volume of the conversation in the room in decibels? There's an app for that!
- My uncle's neighbor has the largest & brightest TV in existence. We know this because it lights up my uncle's back yard at night, despite the small forest of pine trees in between them. My Uncle wants him to get a slightly bigger one, though, as he would then be able to cancel his own cable & just watch the neighbor's TV with his binoculars.
- Directions to Pluto? There's an app for that!
- Do not question Sharon's knowledge of weird, short-lived 80's shows. I know my Max Headroom & I have the Google skills to prove it.
