Lolbama!

I’m actually remembering to submit it this time:

Ain’t that like “The Man”? Stealing the Injuns’ land to give to their constituents?

A White Christmas is Less Romantic Than One Would Think

I got into a hit-’n'-run on Christmas Day. A big SUV merged into my lane going about 5 mph about 10 feet in front of me. Needless to say, I did not have the stopping power to avoid hitting him, the car in the other lane, and the barrier that abuts the icy highway.

I pulled over. He drove off.

So, depending on if my insurance company rules it my fault or not, I might not have the money to fix my car. I’m barely scrapping by without having to shell out thousands of dollars I do not have. Fortunately, it looks like it is just body work damage, so my car is still operational. Unfortunately, more snow is coming.

If I had a tip-jar, I’d be ringing it now.

Christmastide: Christmas

“And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, ‘Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this [shall be] a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.’ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.’ And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had seen [it], they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard [it] wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these things, and pondered [them] in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.” – Luke 2: 8-20

Christmastide: Christmas Eve

“And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. ([And] this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.” – Luke 2:1-7

I Know It’s Still a Little Early…

…but Merry Christmas. Sidebar updated with a poorly rendered manger scene (using a cave instead of a wooden structure because that was how it was done back in the day). I was going to draw Mary sleeping (like any normal person who just gave birth would be doing at that time of night), but that seemed a little too weird.

Yet Another Video Posting…

…this time from the best Christmas special ever:

And, yes, Chuck Norris’ column this week is not appropriate to give the whole PSA treatment.

Crowder in a Third World Country

Cannot… Resist… Deadpool… Cosplay… Youtube… Videos…

…they are like cocaine. Here is one where a surprisingly quiet Deadpool fights a surprisingly dumb fake St. Nicholas (N.B.: graphical abbreviated cussin’):

Poor St. Nick. If only your representation in the popular culture focused on your piety instead of imaginary “super fat” powers, you would have punched the foo’. And not get shot.

And, yes, I acknowledge Deadpool’s perverse desire to fornicate with a holiday. He is mentally unstable and known to hallucinate.

In Case You Did Not Believe…

…here is Algore, Protectorate of the Polar Bear, reading some poetry Moe Lane has already read:

Man, Algore needs to take an Oral Interpretation class (along with some classes on composition, basic math, and science).
