Don't Get Scrooged
Don't Get Scrooged: How to Thrive in a World Full of Obnoxious, Incompetent, Arrogant, and Downright Mean-Spirited People | Richard Carlson
8 posts | 2 read
Inside find helpful advice, such as: Take a Vacation, Not a Guilt-Trip Don't Get "Should Upon" Hades or Homecoming? Opt In- or Out-of Family Events Quit Being Your Mother Ban Worry from Your Holidays It's Not DaytonaYou're Not Jeff Gordon Don't Try to Cook Tailgating Turkeys Don't Get Scrooged is a jewel of a handbook on how to avoid, appease, and even win over the Scrooges who haunt your holidays. Whether it's the salesclerk who ignores you in favor of her cell phone, the customer who knowingly jumps ahead of you in line at Starbucks, the unnaturally irritable boss down the hall, or the in-laws who invite themselves (every year) for a two-week stay at your house, you will always need to deal with Scrooges, grumps, uninvited guests, sticks-in-the-mud, and supreme party poopers. Learning to handle them whenever and wherever they appear is not just optionalit's essential.

Wow this was rubbish! Sorry for not holding back 😂 I thought this was a classic. All the actors looked like they didn‘t want to be there and it was all just a bit weird. Also I thought it was one of the films on #christmasmoviebingo but I‘ll use a free space instead #wintergames #readnosedreindeer

StayCurious Haha good for you! Not every classic that's a classic is good - if that makes sense...+6 4y

So #TeamElectricSex I watched our chosen Christmas movie last night. Wow, I hated this movie! I‘m sorry for anyone who loves it, I was just not into it.

This was the first time I‘ve seen it. I‘m not a huge fan of Bill Murray and just the characters were really weird. I honestly finished this just for my team. Otherwise I would have shut it off... 😬

#wintergames +21pts

sblbooks I felt the same, I took one for the team.😫 4y
LibrarianRyan That's okay. Not everyone has the same tastes. I know some of our team also hates the movie our team name is based on which is why I chose a different one. Plus I am a sucker for a retelling. Or at least seeing what is done in retellings. 4y

Hey #teamelectricSex We have a new #wintergames to play. This one is called #MovieClub. It's like a Book club only it's a movie. Our team's movie is the Bill Murry classic Scrooged. You have all month to watch this movie. Those who watch get 25 points.

During #24b42020 10 questions will be posted (just like a book club). Every comment on the questions will be worth 5 pts.

As always anyone may participate but only my team will get points.

TheBookStacker I love this movie! 4y
tdrosebud I've never seen this movie, I'll have to try and find it. 4y

Laughterhp I don‘t think I‘ve seen this one before... I don‘t have cable, so I‘d appreciate it if someone lets me know how I can stream it! (edited) 4y
LibrarianRyan @Laughterhp @tdrosebud It can be officially rented at all streaming location pretty cheaply from $1.99 on Google play to $3.99 on iTunes and Fandango. I have found this link http://movi4k.us/play.php?movie=tt0096061 but I can not guarantee it. It's probably a not legal download.

Nessavamusic Awesome I love this movie! 4y
tdrosebud @LibrarianRyan @Laughterhp I was able to find a copy at my library so I placed a hold on it. 4y
LibrarianRyan @tdrosebud That would have been my second suggestion but I no longer have a DVD player. I wonder if it is on hoopla? hummmmm 4y
LibrarianRyan hey @trashcanman. Is this version okay with you or is it still too Dickens? 4y
madamereadsalot1 This is one of my all time favorite Christmas movies!! 4y
Laughterhp Ok cool. I‘ll check my library. I checked Hoopla and didn‘t see it. I have a bunch of digital rewards through amazon so maybe I‘ll see if I rent it there too. 4y
LibrarianRyan @Laughterhp yes, it's rentable on Amazon. 2.99 I believe. It's not on Hoopla. I checked too. 4y
Marina_h I hope it'll be shown on TV here in Denmark. I can't find it on any if the streaming service I have access to, but maybe the library is an idea 4y
kezzlou85 Ooh I love that. Will have to keep an eye out for it on Netflix and Sky. 4y
LibrarianRyan @Marina_h The library might be able to get it for you. 4y
Jen_Reads I haven‘t seen this since probably the 90s. 4y
