It's Sunday, and I need to know...why each of you are,

[flvegan]

now with ONLY 36 (XXXV...thirty five) more shopping days until Christmas, sitting here on DU!!!1!111!! The Sunday fliers came out today!! Why aren't you clubbing toddlers to get your hands on a Playstation 3/Nintendo Wii/Tickle My Ass Elmo XTreme?????//??

GET SHOPPPPPPPPPPING, PEOPLE!!!! Spend, spend, spend!! It's credit, so it's like...free and stuff for a while! C'mon!!

If not for the one turducken thread here in The Lounge, I'd be COMPLETELY disappointed in the whole lot of you.

1. Pfft...I've taken Monday, November 27th, off from work to shop.

I plan to conclude the vast majority of my shopping in a one-day, blow-out orgy of consumerism.

[Maddy McCall]

8. Don't forget. I want the lambskin slippers.

:D

[GOPisEvil]

13. Lambskin slippers. Check.

:D

[RevolutionaryActs]

2. You are a sick, twisted, bastard.

Good show. :thumbsup:

[skygazer]

3. Because we're all waiting to shop the day after Thanksgiving

The BIGGEST SHOPPING DAY OF THE YEAR!!!111 :sarcasm:

[SlavesandBulldozers]

4. Tickle My Ass Elmo XTreme LOL

that's soooo last Christmas, you mean you don't have the Tickle My Ass Elmo XTreme 2: The Reckoning? Jesus what's your problem?

[flvegan]

10. I got the "Moses" doll from that fundie site. He and Elmo have a cage match

set up for Thanksgiving. I understand that TME-X has a folding chair just waiting for him. Something about "parting his red sea" with it.

[Callalily]

5. Oh, I'm after that

PS3 alright, but I'm going to be stealthy about it.

[SOteric]

6. Shop online. Then you can DU while you multi-task.

[flvegan]

11. Right. Like Mary, when giving birth to our Lord and Savior should have

used Acrobat to create and send .pdf birth announcements for the future King, eh? And the 3 wise men were idiot farts for not using Amazon.com and the free shipping.

Disgusting. Christmas is about pain, suffering and long waits. You people make me sick.

[Maddy McCall]

7. I waited in a line of very peaceful, friendly people last night...

got my son's Wii and all accessories.

No clubbing, stabbing, shooting.

And, while I thought about trying a Tony Chachere's Turducken, we're going with the old stand-by fried turkey for Thanksgiving this year.

:)

[flvegan]

12. Oh, yeah? Well I hear that f'ing HITLER liked peaceful lines, too.

I DO so hope you get my point. I'll forgive you if you mail me that Wii you got there...

No? Meh, just thought I'd ask.

[El Fuego]

9. I'm shopping on-line, while hanging on DU. I'm MULTI-TASKING baby!!

Because I'm THAT good.

[Kutjara]

14. A little basic foresight and planning make for a stress-free...

...holiday shopping season. Over the years, I have worked assiduosly to avoid making new friends, to alienate the few friends I had, and to cut all ties to my family. As a result, Christmas shopping is a breeze. An added benefit: Christmas Day is about as peaceful as a bottle of Jack Daniels can make it.

[flvegan]

20. I'd like to nominate this for the homepage.

[sakabatou]

15. Getting some new hardware

External HD
New Video Card

[femmocrat]

16. I went shopping yesterday. That was enough.

[begin_within]

17. On Thanksgiving, I'm going to suggest to the whole family that we just "call it even" this year.

And if they won't go for that, I'm just going to make things for everyone, since I have about 37 cents in my total budget for Christmas shopping. I'll probably buy toys for the little kids, but everyone else is going to have to settle for homemade gifts this time.

[SeattleGirl]

18. Um, because I have no money.

:P

[Ekirh]

19. Shopping will commence

With receiving of said bonus check . . .

And the Turducken tries to eat me in nightmares :( . . .

[benny05]

21. Because I shop online n/t

[LeftyMom]

22. I'll get LK's present when I have room to hide it and you get yours when you're here

You do not even want to know what I had to do to get you that Elmo, but I know you really wanted it so the bloodshed and criminal charges were worth it. Thank Big Bird for the dent resistant panels on my wagon. :evilgrin:

[Midlodemocrat]

23. HEY!!!

No sex threads.

[LeftyMom]

26. Yes'm

:blush:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. My dear LeftyMom!

Didja get my message? You need to call me, sweetie.......

But later, OK?

I"m heading out to shop for dinner now..... :hi:

[LeftyMom]

27. Later's fine, I have to talk details with flvegan first anyhow.

But yes, I got your message while I was at work.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. That'll work!

After about 9 would work the best.......thanks!

Figured you were at work!

:hi:

[NewWaveChick1981]

24. 'Cause I have toilets to scrub and tv to watch...

:rofl: :hi: And DU to check...

[sarge43]

29. What? Did someone declare a cease fire in the War on

Christmas. Damn. Missed another staff meeting.

[Shine]

30. Oh puhlease. It's all I can do to get ready for hosting Thanksgiving for 15 people.

seriously, one thing at a time....

I know you posted in jest, but the over-consumerism of the holiday season is such a turn-off. :puke:
