Aw that’s just adoreable Matt! I’d like to see that Cobra Chia Pet plot you never finished worked into Mare’s diabolical designs, but we’ll see!

What will Mare be wearing this year? Is blood red the new black? At least we know she’ll be drinking Giant Ape Juice.

Why mare winningham? Am i missing something? I saw the last advent calendar but still left with that burning question WHY? I know shes an actress and all..
And after reading all the Excellent christmas foods and treats you guys get in the US, i went down to my local K-Mart to see what christmas junk they had, and i was thoroughly disappointed… The best we had was a 4 pack of kinder surprise with a picture of Santa on the tag… i want colored oreos! i want peeps! and Red & Green Holiday goldfish!! We get next to NUTHIN consider yourselves lucky!

Man, thanks for the tunes!

I can’t fathom how the concept of suicide and Dominick the Donkey can coexist in one world. If Scrooge heard that song, the story would’ve been a fourth as long.

Me and a friend were talking about Feliz Navidad the other day. When I was younger, it was a song I always heard part of on the radio but never the whole song. Or I never paid attention to it.

Anyway, one day I heard it playing and I decided to keep listening. I knew that the song had to lead to something. So I listened to the same lyrics over and over again, anticipating actual verses. Then… it just ended.

Also, I just realized that X-E never covered the Run DMC Christmas in Hollis video. Then again, there’s not much to cover considering the humor is intentional.

This may just be the Pepsi Holiday Spice + whiskey cocktail talking…but I really need some X-E updates…Immediately!

Yes! You’re me savior, the only Christmas cd I brought with me was NSync’s Christmas *shudder*. Everything good is at home. But no more!

I made an advent calendar today because nowhere within walking distace (my mode of transportation) sells them…so I can be distracted peeling chocolaty glue off my hands until Christmas gets goin’ here.

Too bad the XE calendar isn’t up yet, but you know it’s gonna be worth the wait…in the meantime I’ll just busy myself with the Strawberry Shortcake advent calendar my Mom mailed to me! Good thing she did, too- I dont think advent calendars exist in Korea. What a sad place

I just realized how awesome the Band Aid song would be if sung by X-E icons. He-Man and Freddy Krueger singing the first verse side-by-side, Storm Shadow wearing Hulk Hands while singing in harmony with King Hippo and My Pet Monster. And of course, Tim Curry introduces the song with the words, "Come on, girls. Let’s let them know that… it’s Christmas."

Chestnuts roasted by Gavok @ 12/02/2004 1:36 AM

i never realized how much i look forward to the advent calendar until right now.
i’m excited to see what this years will bring!

Chestnuts roasted by candice @ 12/02/2004 1:40 AM

Muppet Baby- Korea isn’t such a bad place, I mean, where else can you get cheap NFL jerseys for $10? I bought a Peyton Manning jersey there like five years ago and it is still looking good, compared to the ones I’ve bought at retail stores.

Say, we can start a swap meet right here on X-E!

My Kinder Advent Calendars and cash for some kimchee and an NFL jersey to be named later.

Whaddya think? lol

Chestnuts roasted by Ralph @ 12/02/2004 6:24 AM

EMajorwitz- No, you’re right- it’s a pretty interesting place, that’s for sure! You sound like you’ve spent some time in Itaewon! And your offer of Kinder Eggs IS tempting…
As long as I have XE to visit, I feel like I’m at home when I’m looking at my computer screen, ya know? Awwww….Jeez, sorry for being all mushy everyone- the holidays brings that out of me!

Chestnuts roasted by Muppet Baby @ 12/02/2004 7:08 AM

Anybody watch the Rudolph special last night?

Chestnuts roasted by Jessica @ 12/02/2004 8:34 AM

I was busy watching the Nick and Jessica Christams special, it was so bad it was funny. I think Jessica Simpson is retarded

Chestnuts roasted by dr mindbender in a speedo @ 12/02/2004 8:55 AM

If you are Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey, and you suck, why would you completely point that out by singing with Bing Crosby? Way to draw attention to how awful you are Jessica Simpson. Nothing says Christmas like defiling a classic. Get naked.

Chestnuts roasted by Lou @ 12/02/2004 9:11 AM

YES! MARE IS COMING BACK! I LOVE the advent calendar….I think we need a camo from Mista’ Snowman. He rocks my planet.

Chestnuts roasted by princesspeachypoo @ 12/02/2004 9:27 AM

Matt – you are lucky that I love you so much cuz you are really pushing it – a FT job is no excuse! I’m holding my breath til this damn advent calendar is up and if I die let it be on your soul!! Ok just kidding – too much coffee this morning – feeling a little melodramatic. Can’t wait to see your creative genius – PLEASE HURRY!!!!

Hey – can someone please explain the "giant ape juice" thing to me – i’m new to the site and i’ve been going through the archives b/c I am in love with this site and I keep seeing "giant ape juice" in the comments. I’m sure it’s explained somewhere but when I do a search all I get is 10 million links to old comments – can someone please help me?

I missed Thomas Haden Church on Conan last night.
Thank goodness for CNBC’s next day re-runs.

BTW: One of the first X-E articles I found with "Giant Ape Juice"…

Well, Giant Ape Juice mystery solved. I wonder if Matt cares that X-E’s not #1 on Google for Giant Ape Juice now.
