Well, it's almost time for another Festivus. Start wiritng down all your grievances, real and imagined, in preparation for the annual airing thereof.

I have devised a new feat of strength for the culmination of this years Festivus. It will be revealed ONLY AFTER the Airing Of The Greviances.

You all disappoint me endlessing.

This thread has disappointed me more than the Detroit Lions have disappointed people in the state of Michigan.

You need to adopt a more charitable outlook or I'll send Culpepper over to your house for a little one-on-one. Duante shoulda stayed retired. Who does he think he is, Brett Favre?

At least you know what you have. The Vikings will amaze you all season, then cave at the end. We're used to it. Just wish they wouldn't get our hopes up.

Better Late Than Never...

Okay, okay... the official Festivus date for 2009 has come and gone but I have a few grievances to air:

About Airstreams - Why oh why does the company continue to make trailers with wood floors? The floors ROT! On top of that... there's the whole floor is connected to the frame but the body is connected to the floor problem. This is the 21st century - there has to be a better way! Get a clue Airstream! Your products can be very big disappointments.

I'm on a roll now - back to sports - What's up with the Colts? I know... I know... the party line is they were giving the quarterback some relief and saving him for the playoffs. Did they do that the previous week? They were already in the playoffs back then. Even if that's all true it's pretty lame in my mind. Very disappointing!

Now on to college football coaches - What in the heck is Kelly from Cincinnati doing? Perfect season - playing in a BCS bowl - but he leaves to go to Notre Dame. Notre Dame is a good move for him I suppose but why not wait until after the bowl game? He is a huge disappointment.

Who wants the pole next?

Festivus 2010

Well, we couldn't afford lights for the Frstivus pole this year, but at least we have the aluminum pole erected.

You all disappointed me greatly this year.

what pole?

i was really looking forward to being less disappointed, not more.

no lights, fine but at least set flame to the table.

good grief.

~sigh~

The meatloaf was inedible... again.

We somehow finished it though. Another Festivus Miracle!

MIL cried after our wrestling match... again. She's so weak. Quick, but weak.

Our Festivus pole is an embarrassment.
Tin foil wrapped around a damn cardboard toilet paper tube... Ridiculous!
I'm throwing it out!!

Brett Favre doesn't know how to spell his own name anymore but Rex Ryan still digs his toes. Who ARE these people?!?

1. Saskatchewan, you disappoint me. Will we ever have a green Festivus?
2. I disappoint myself . . . didn't feel like making the traditional Festivus ham with Snapple glaze.
Now . . . on to the feats of strength. Let's see who can vacuum faster! Forget about wrestling.

The maids a milking haven't arrived yet from Amazon.

How many more holidays can there be? I can't take it anymore.

Well it's Festivus again, sixth anniversary. I didn't bother to take another picture of the pole because I don't want to waste any more time on this than necessary.

Y'all disappointed me greatly again so overall it was a good year. You have lived up to my expectations, de minimus.

Airing of grievances may begin. You may also propose new feats of strength.

Grievance: I just downloaded Free WiFi Finder on my iPad and then tried to load the list of all hot spots when off line. When it got to 88%, it told me my wifi connection had failed and it just stopped and I could do nothing but delete the whole app and start over. Now I am re-loading the app. Shall I download the list again, or just be content with the app—just having to decide gives me grief!

Do I have to get a pole?
