Laughy, Jaffe, Daffy, Qadhafi!

And on the First Of December, I opened up the first window of my Advent Calendar, and ate the tasty chocolate thus revealed. And then I opened the other twenty-three and scarfed down their newly-revealed goodies as well, because who has the patience for all that crap?

Then I went to the store and bought twenty-three more Advent Calendars. It's gonna be one of those months.

But let the first of December also remind you that this week's quiz is still up and running and that you should hurry up and play if you have not already done so.

Since it officially the holiday season, I'll celebrate by eating something appropriate.



Plus, I'll give you a holiday poem, just because I can.

An Hollydaye Treatyze

A is for Advent, a calendar of sweet
B is for Blitzen, a venison treat
C is for Christmas, the birthday of Jesus
D is for Drinking, which goes great with cheeses
E is for Eggnog, which makes me roly-poly
F is for Fa La La, and other carols holy
G is for Goose, upon which the chefs toil
H is for Hannukah, and eight days of oil
I is for Irritable, Irrational, Irate
J is for Jingle Bells, on my nerves they grate
K is for Kwanzaa, because it's PC
L is for Lines At Stores, that cause misery
M is for Mistletoe- give me a smoochie
N is for Nutmeg, which tastes sweet on hoochie
O is for Orange, an unseasonal colour
P is for Presents, that's what we're all here for
Q is for Quality, sacrificed for money
R is for Rudolph, with nose red and runny
S is for Santa, an anagram of Satan
T is for Times Square, and New Year's Celebratin'
U is for Unlucky, if your birthday's on Christmas
V is for Valentine's, not quite yet upon us
W is for Winter, with cold, snow, and ice
X is for XMas Tree, all decorated and nice
Y is for Yulelog, which burns hot and pleasin'
Z is for Zoloft, the cure for the season!


(Ed: I apologize for Letter N. Couldn't think of anything better, and... well... yeah. My bad.)


Play, before Jack Frost nips off your buds, or something!

"Margaret! Please call the editor of the New York Times crossword and tell him that 'Khaddafi' is spelled with an H and two D's, and isn't a seven-letter word for anything."

and later:

"Seventeen across. Yes. Seventeen across is wrong. You’re spelling his name wrong. What’s my name? My name doesn’t matter. I’m just an ordinary citizen who relies on the Times crossword for stimulation. And I’m telling you, that I’ve met with the man twice, and I’ve recommended a preemptive Exocet Missile attack against his airforce. So, I think I know how to...they hang up on me every time."

West Wing?

[scifantasy.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Aaron Sorkin is, frankly, one of the three best TV writers ever.

It seems to be a matter of some debate (http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a2_264b.html)

They told us to say Qadhafi, so we say Qadhafi. Like the article says, it's the lack of standardization in converting Arabic characters to Romanized characters that generates the confusion.

But I agree: we should just call him "Duckbreath" and be done with it.

I love West Wing

[jonem.livejournal.com]

Ah, John Spencer love. The pilot is one of my favourite episodes.

Jack Frost...

[ladylyonesse.livejournal.com]

What if he budded off your nips?

That would be way worse, dude.

Re: Jack Frost...

[nakedblueninja.livejournal.com]

I dunno, man, "budded off your nips" sounds realllllyyy kinky. Like, I'm going to go... over there now.... kinky.

please

Sure! I believe the credit info for it is posted up in my user pics page, sadly I didn't make it myself.

*dead from poem*

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

i thought qadhafi was a fabulous choreographer! (http://www.thestranger.com/blog/archives/2005/11/27-03.php#a002620)

He probably should have done West Side Story instead- a riveting tale of two gangs that had declared jihad against each other, and yet a forbidden love was blooming threatening to unite their sects and end years of God-ordained warfare.

I hope Eminem gets a part.

I blame school for delaying my quiz-taking this week. But I've gotten it done, at the likely sacrifice of my funny. Because if I don't do the Quiz, regardless of funny, then there is no honor.

[trishalynn.livejournal.com]

Congrats. You've made it to my user info page!

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Awwww... I feel all special now!

[jessicamariek.livejournal.com]

Sounds like it's going to be one of those holiday-indulgence months for you too, huh? *scarfs down chocolates and goodies with you...don't worry they're my own!*

[chaosvizier.livejournal.com]

Ah, who am I kidding? Every month is a chocolate indulgence month in my book. Yummy chocos!

[jelymo.livejournal.com]

Oh dear lord, I need to print that poem off and put it on my fridge.

Hm...

[jaebird.livejournal.com]

I wonder if I can place an order to have my buds nipped?

[dragon-spirit.livejournal.com]

If you have any room left after all that chocolate, you'll probably enjoy eating the reindeer. Reindeer is cute, fluffy, and extremely tasty. I used to eat it when I was a kid. Yeah, I was a twisted kid.

Astrologers would argue that Jesus is really a Pisces (I think Linda Goodman pushed for Leo, but basically Jesus doesn't strike them as a capricorn type...)

But that would throw off your whole "cheeses" rhyme...

But yay for chocolate! That's the real way people should consume an advent calendar.
