This weekend, I managed to watch two Friends holiday episodes: “The One with All the Candy” & “The One with the Holiday Armadillo” & the Seinfeld Festivus episode, actually called “The Strike.”

When looking at the #WinterGames2021 #FestivePhotoChallenge prompt, It occurred to me that the Festivus pole is in need of a #TreeTopper 🤣

#TeamGameSleighers

LitStephanie Good work! It's funny; I never saw the Festivus episodes but so many people talk about it, it has become a cultural knowledge item even if you didn't watch Seinfeld. 2y
Linsy The Holiday Armadillo!!! 😂 2y

"Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint"

It was either this or Joe Hill's book. Unfortunately, I know of no books about magnet tar pit traps ??‍♀️

But I did consider a Suze Orman book about debt and priceless advice!
