Oh that's right ladies and gents. It's that time of the year again.

Time to tell tales of Festivus miracles witnessed, the airing of grievances, feats of strength or pictures of your Festivus pole.

Me, personally? This morning I made it to work without the subway breaking down, truly a Festivus miracle!

(Also, airing of grievances are being held in CoG IRC: irc.enterthegame.com #ColonyOfGamers)

Forced to bump this because 25 minutes passed with no response? No wonder my post count is so low, I'm still waiting for replies to posts I made months ago.

Apparently which direction you wipe your ass is more important than Festivus? *shrug*

I'm glad to see this post, I've been wishing folks a Merry Festivus all morning.

Must be, even though I never posted in that thread because my ass is my won business. Seriously, some of the things people around here share...

OT, I helped make Festivus happen this year for a true believer. A believer of Festivus, that is. I can't keep the damn holiday straight. What is it again? If a robot groundhog sees its shadow for 8 days in a row, a Rastafarian delivers presents to all the Easter Bunnies? Damn stupidest holiday I ever heard of.

wasn't the Yonge line shutdown this morning because of smoke? or do you get 'executive hours' at work :D

no traffic on the Hamilton bound QEW, hot girl working at Tim Hortons, invite out for lunch today with some co-workers, merry christmas hug&cheek kiss from office cougar, Bell tech coming to test internet line and boost up our speed to 7.3ish, truly a Festivus Miracle!

I always find "Happy Festivus" or "Merry Festivus" to be off-putting considering the nature of the holiday.

I prefer something with less emotion, like "Have a Festivus."

It really grinds my gears that gamers prefer talking about Games, than about the Great Festivus.

I heard there was a fire somewhere, but I must have missed it. My subway zinged by (7:35-7:50ish on Yonge line) without slowing down at all. Also my super is replacing the big fluorescent light in my bathroom today, another Festivus miracle!!!

Many Christmas' ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I rained blows upon, I realized there had to be another way.

Screw the Feats of Strength, I think we should skip right to the airing of grievances.

The Airing comes first anyway.

The Feats of Strength are the only way to end Festivus.
