Ok Lounge check-in! Who here is all ready to go for the War on Christmas
with the mid-term elections I think some of you have been slacking off a bit so we really need to get the ball rolling on November 3rd as once again we wage this fierce war on Christmas.

Check-in for those who have done their off season training & planning. Those that are new to the war, we'll match you up with a seasoned veteran of the War on Christmas to help mentor you thru your first war.

3. well...
I'm Jewish, but I never cared much if the goyim here wanted to call it a Christmas party. Then last year we hired a new secretary, who is a Jehova's Witness. I asked the head of the party to buy neutral napkins and plates so this woman would join us. She promptly reported me to the big boss, complaining that I was "Trying to take away their holiday."

This year, I'm taking a BB gun to every overtly x-ian decoration in the office :nuke:

4. Worked with a JW once...she wouldn't particiapte in the gift exchange and said so...
then when no one gave her a present, she said she couldn't GIVE presents, but could GET them. She was really pissed. She was also crazy, IMHO.

6. I had a JW co-worker like that
Our boss took the team out for lunch at the end of the year and the person wouldn't go because of being a JW. I tried to explain this wasn't a Christmas lunch but an End-of-Year thank you from the boss. Didn't work.

11. Suited up ma'am.
So tell me again, is it pillage and then burn or visa-versa?

My OI is driving around and shooting out those hideous inflatable lawn decorations. I could use help with the driving and I have plenty of experience as a OJT instructor. I promise you a qualified sharp shooter by New Years.

12. Naval elements ready!
Edited on Thu Oct-07-10 05:49 PM by TheMightyFavog


Mr. Gridley, please stop straddling the 16 inch guns shouting "Get it? The gun is my cock!" It was funny the first few time, but now it's gotten annoying!

14. The War On Christmas?
Whatever for? I can do without all the commercialism, but love Christmas... pretty much all holidays actually. Is this an 'uncool' position to be taking? :shrug:

Can someone take pity on this newbie and fill me in on what you talking about?

15. Special Ops Team 'Kringle' checking in!
We have been drilling relentlessly and studying our enemy in every detail since last year...we've lived his life, eaten his food, driven his sleigh...we are ready. Hell, we read the bastard's book!

He'll never suspect us.

He'll think we're just some more of his mindless followers.

He'll never see it coming.


Never.





Team 'Kringle' at undisclosed training site.
