U.S. sample size of 1 here. I don’t have any Christmas decorations up yet, but we have begun updating gift lists, purchasing some gifts (I monitor sales to find the actually decent ones for the 3-4 months prior, but don’t usually buy unless it’s really good), and we’ve watched a couple of Christmas-ish movies (Rise of the Guardians and Alien X-mas). We’ll put up our decorations the weekend after Thanksgiving. Oh, and I keep an eye out for Christmas decorations we like for a decent price. Haven’t found any yet. Did fine a decent projector for half off. I suspect it’s really more like $40 off, but that’s decent. Haven’t bought it yet, though.

Well, we’re glad to have you with us!

And everyone is right!

Dedication. My life is interrupted so much that there is always an opportunity to use the bathroom.

You didn’t pause it?

Laundro-Cat! Have to put RFID tags on all the cats and sensors that prevent machines from starting if a cat is within a few feet of the sensor.

Free range.

Yeah, anyone not wear 1 million sun block is gonna have a real bad day, got it‽

Let us old farts start using it and it’ll instantly be uncool. It’s whack to be washed, know what I mean jelly bean? Totes! Lates.

Now, let’s get them and Nick Cage in a plane!

I placed an order at a restaurant where you have a name for the order, but you also have names for particular food items. The main name was Mario Mario. The food items were various SMB characters. I went to pick up the food in a Boo shirt and Mario baseball cap. I heard them talking about Mario’s last name being Mario and Luigi’s last name being the same. Anyway, I went over to pick up the order, they noticed my clothes, and started laughing. Good times. Anyway, I like using character names.

The Face of Boe!

What happened to the other ½ of the 4th kid? Were you low on money?

We decorate for Christmas and Halloween, but I enjoy the Halloween ones a bit more. People in my area are more likely to decorate for Christmas, sadly.

One you can consume yourself, too. I buy hundreds of pieces and give away half. We eat the other half. Yum!

Blathering blatherskite!

As for I, but it applies to both of us. So, we were both amused.

Panels are in the wrong order. It should either be 3, 1, 2, 4 or 3, 2, 1, 4. These orders offer different feelings to the progression. Either way, you have to set the stage for the joke with 3.

I agree. However, they do make kid safety stuff that prevents drawers from being opened, which might prevent this. Problem with cats is that you won’t know you need something until after the first time this happens.

The one we like is basically two pieces of plastic secured to a surface using command strips with a ratcheting strip connecting them. Not too expensive, removable, no holes left behind, easy to install and use.

That one is the closest to my dad’s hair during this era, actually.
