it's a political drama, the mcallister mansion's household valuables are votes and the sticky bandits are progressive candidates. kevin's the dnc.

his father plays himself as a rich chicago laywer who is ignorant to the actions of his beneficiary.

People seriously consider it a Christmas song?? I've been hearing it a bunch the last few weeks but I thought it was just a weird coincidence. Wtf. Is it just because they hear the title/chorus and don't listen to anything else?

Elf on the Shelf (though Elf in the Shelf being terrible is not an unpopular opinion). I find it bizarre how some people took to it like it was some ancient Christmas tradition to the point where there was always someone trying to introduce it to every place I worked at and talked about it like they had been doing it their whole life.

Also, you don’t need a spy elf to explain to your kids how Santa knows if they have been good or bad. He spies on them with his holiday magic. :colbert:

It feels like one of those things where if you dig into it you’ll find out the author’s grandfather was in the OSS or something. :tinfoil:

Which one do they put Santa on trial and the USPS comes in and delivers his mail to the courtroom? That movie is also bad.

The true Christmas movie is Die Hard. :colbert:

i think it wanes and waxes. i remember several years ago feeling like it was being played all the time on the radio, and then for a couple years i noticed it didn't get played much.



lmbo. at work we used to have a manager who put up fake surveillance cameras to try and make his dispatching team think he was watching them. apparently didn't work because he's gone now lol
