Dang, I put that in the mail a week ago. Now I'm worried about all the ones I mailed after.

(Just kidding, I'm a pro. My Christmas card recipient list is sorted by distance in descending order)

As it turns out, we have almost entirely opposite tastes in Christmas music

So that'd be, what... like, the one where the dogs bark Jingle Bells?

I just kind of feel like our lists are bizzaro versions of each other's. This is what I would say mine is, in no particular order:

emilynhoward's avatar emilynhoward 1 week ago

The Christmas Song, O Little Town of Bethlehem, Hark the Herald Angels Sing, White Christmas, Jingle Bell Rock, God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen, Silent Night, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let it Snow, All I Want for Christmas is You

That Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer with Bing Crosby and Ella Fitzgerald is a banger, though.

Shout-outs to Snoopy's Christmas for being to my knowledge the only Christmas song about World War I dogfighting and mortal enemies destined to kill one another

I love Good King Wenceslas. My favorite guilty pleasure Christmas song is Christmas in Las Vegas by Richard Cheese

I can't listen to "Duel of the Fates" unless it is the music video version. Also, your lack of any songs from "Christmas in the Stars: Star Wars Christmas Album" is disturbing.

so wise... messing with your site and meta-posts about your site setup is the endless black void that keeps calling to me...

SO real. Atp in my life I'd rather just go somewhere, or like maybe expendable food is okay, but even that is getting to be a bit much because I literally have snacks piling up and going rancid :E|

It occurs to me, I -have- seen custom HTML tags. Zendesk's knowledge base software uses them now; the WYSIWYG editor inserts them to power some of its functionality, but since they're unstyled containers they don't affect the published page.

I could explain it in detail with images and code snippets and stuff but I'd need some sort of dedicated web space for that

I remember hotel breakfasts in California when I was there. (yes, not just one hotel) We were told there were great breakfast menus:(

The ultimate chip shame is reaching the crumbs at the bottom and using the bag to funnel them directly into your mouth. Also, if we’re allowing foods with origins elsewhere, I’d add Tex Mex to the list. It’s just as popular as pizza and significantly more delicious.
