I may have gotten naughty this year, but by today's standards, naughty's nothing!
Happy Christmas Eve! I will be way too busy to update later tonight, so instead enjoy weird as hell Christmas cards from the 1800s. This includes my personal favorite:
kadrin, an Official Australian, was good enough to explain it to the rest of us:
"'S quite simple. The girl is upset that the animal the parents got for her to battle to the death - to prove worthy of her presents - was only an emu. If there was anything good under the tree, she'd have at least a cassowary to deal with."
I did not seek squeemu's comments for fear she would back me against a wall and attack me, much like the card.
In conclusion, here is one of my favorite versions of Carol of the Bells, the August Burns Red version, which lands as high on the list as it does for its name, the fact the Capitals used it in one of their holiday videos, and the fact I just like rock/techno versions of this song.
