My dying wish is for an owl/camel hybrid, which I call camowl.

Feliz Navidad.

Sorry, sorry -- still finishing it up. Oi. Don't worry, it's coming very very soon. The return of Mare Winningham, a true Christmas icon, is just around the corner. Meantime, click here for several dozen reasons not to complain about X-E's holiday season starting late.

WHOA!!!!!! Lookin’ good, Matt! I love what you’ve used for your nav buttons (especially the Pac-Man one). Lookin’ forward to the new x-mas season, coming this winter on X-E!

Villainous Fats- You said it! I’m seriously about to start a Mare inningham fanclub, decorated with all sorts of Playmobil Mare Winninghams. (Just kidding. I wouldn’t do that unless you were to pay me the amount of one with about three or four zeros to the right of it.)

Oops. I spelled "Winningham" as "inningham." Shows just how much of a fan of her I truly am. :)

Picked up my very own PM Advent Calendar at the old Target today! Nope, not opening it. Waiting till Matt starts posting. Imagine being able to open every toy that Matt has reviewed for a month, when you get home from work…. yeah, its gonna be the @$&#!

Nice playlist, I’m trying to track down all the Peanuts songs, Garfield ones would be nice too.

Peeping Tom Bing Crosby was the best part of the special last night.

Well besides my future wife, Ashlee.

Matt –
The christmas mix is AWESOME!!! The only song you’re missing is mariah carey – all i want for christmas is you… haha.

We switched from our typical lyrics-free Muzak to the Xmas background music today at work. After 8 months of listening to horrible renditions of My Heart Will Go On on the oboe, my joy at hearing Burl Ives was boundless. Lots of Sinatra, not nearly enough of the King. At least they played the Island of Misfit Toys song.

Rosella: You aren’t supposed to be able to get Kinder’s anywhere in the US. Canadians can be trusted not to swallow giant plastic pills, but apparentely we can’t.

Orko: Says it’s called Rudolph Rap, and it’s by the California Raisins. Oh, and your definition of "crappy" is definitely different from mine ;)

Matt, these songs are awesome, I can’t believe you’ve pulled this all together between working and blood capsules and Macy’s Parades. Can we expect them (the songs) to stick around all season?

Who the hell cares what kind of juice you’re drinking as long as it’s not man juice!!

BTW, Matt, thanks for putting the Nat’l Lampoon song on the playlist!! I love that song sooo much! Lindsey Buckingham probably wishes he never did that many drugs to warrent a soundtrack song…but it really does kick ass.

Holiday Roo-OO-ooo-OO-oooaaad!

Teh Chipmunks are also true harbringers of the season.

Quick prediction: One of the articles this year will be about the Christmas episode of Real Ghostbusters. The one where they accidentally busted the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future and Peter had to pretend to be all three.

Thanks Matt. Sorry guys but the GAJ thing was starting to give me a headache.

In other news, love the Xmas decos (especially the little Gizmo, awww) and can’t wait to see it on the main screaen.

"The Hat I Got for Christmas is Too Big"? Where the hell did you find this stuff?!?

And to follow it up with "Go Tell It On the Mountain". Man, XE-mas fucking rules.

Hey, lovin’ Christmas Pac up there. Woohoo, Christmas Pac!

As far as the Giant Ape Juice thing goes, at least Matt knows he was the first site to ever post it. He may not be #1 at Google, but he sure was #1 in aged perfection.

Not only am I waiting for the Advent calender, I’m also curious about any new commercials Matt has going on. Anything on the burner? Oh, and whatever happened to your co-workers? Are they in litigation w/ you over their burnt out taste buds? Did they grow feathers and bean pods and start weating turkey gravy? Are they ok, Matt?

After rereading that, I realize I sound like Papa Dr. Evil w/ his invention of the question mark. I will use it constantly, even when not required! ?? See that, I did it again. ??

Continue the censorship you facists!!

When will Matt add Thomas Haden Church and Paul Giamatti with the Stormtroopers and Lady Mare?
Giamatti and Church need their own Legomen.

Kinder eggs rock! Not only is it a layer ot tasty chocolate with a toy inside (The crucial food + toy combination.) But they contain some of the most absolutely complicated toys I have ever seen.

Come on, a 1" plastic pill filled with a dozen plastic pieces and an instruction manual! (And spuer fun bonus stickers) That’s just so wrong it HAS to be great!

Matt, not sure if you’ll see this but is there any way you can revive your Christmas Jukebox link? It’s been my favourite Christmas compilation for years but my hard drive died a few months ago :(

Thanks in advance!
