Humorous Holidays

I mean for you say I am "Hard to Shop For", there is my list. Matthew 7:7 told me what to do. So, I did it! LoL

Many always talk about the joy, love, & wonder of this time of the year. And though this is not my favorite holiday season (It's Easter), I love the humor that pops up. 

It starts in November for me. Since I am one of those who are determined to celebrate Christmas after Thanksgiving Day, I feel the need to be snarky towards those who must play Yuletide tunes too early. I don't understand why we can't take time to be at least grateful for the Christ child & what his father, the comforter sent to us, and he does for us for a month. (Yeah Woke Folks, That's why I celebrate Thanksgiving) It's Wild! But while I'm being snarky along comes to these business geniuses with their "Need a Holi-Date" ads. I love those ads. They crack me up. And I won't lie, I jokingly considered entering that field just to see the response I would get. Then Covid-19 forcefully came to life and I decided to enjoy other's promos in my Coronavirus safe home.

I do want to know has anyone taken these seriously. I am nosey like that.

Then Thanksgiving is over and I allow Christmas time into my space. Joking memes about this time of year help make the season bright. Especially those things that are nostalgic. We know sometimes we feel "Bah Humbug" grumpy. I think it's almost required once in life.

But feeling like cracking up like Clark Griswold in National Lampoon Christmas Vacation is a level of adulting nobody prepares us for. Truthfully, I don't think they know to tell us. But I know I've been there. One way to calm me down is the holiday tunes. As soon as I hear melodious voices of The Temptations' version of Silent Night or Donny Hathaway sing This Christmas (the Original & the Best) and other songs that soothe any holiday angst I have. But to see memes about them tell me somebody else has likewise good tastes in Yuletide music. These are my holiday people.

Oh, and there are us who even jokes about what we want for gifts via humor. Y'all think I am rapping if I say I want 

12 hundred dollars

11 pairs of shoes

10 fingernails

9 packs of weaves

8 male strippers

7 bus passes

6 diamond rings

5 months free rent

4 bangles

3 pocketbooks

2 earrings

And a man with a lot of money

I think K-Nock had a timeless list in the song What You Want For Christmas by Quad City DJs. And I would like those things. But when I make a meme about my wants like the top picture, folks want to be interested. Maybe one day I will receive one of these things. I just know I miss making list but I know what catches people's eye.

And the humor doesn't stop because we take the lights, mistletoe, & trees down. Others might be New Year, New Me. I'm the Same Me because I have a chuckle or two you might need.

Especially the churchy folks like me. NYE & First Sundays of the year we are ready to the cliché saying that will be believed every day before Martin Luther King Day, I mean All Year. (Yes, Laugh) Remember, "1999, God's Going to Blow Your Mind. *refreshing sigh* Nothing like the Good Ol' Days. I can't wait.

Good humor knows what it is doing. It's one of the gifts that keep on giving. I rather focus on that than the troubles of the world. Have a Happy Holidays, guys. Go Laugh!😁
