Christmas… Tis The Season You Can Buy Anything (Without Embarassment) Fa La La La La La La La La

Hmmm…. It seems I made the title of this post so long there’s little left to explain. But in case you don’t get it, this is the one time of year you can go into any store and buy anything, without getting any weird looks from the cashiers. (I know, I know, you may actually like those weird looks, you masochist you.)

So what do you want to buy? A year’s supply of Depends? Understandable. I’m lazy too.

Or maybe that complete set of Star Wars action figures or that Dora the Explorer talking play set you plan to hide under your couch? If those are sold out, you can always buy one of those dolls that pees when you pour water down its gullet.

That box of extra-small condoms you wanted? No problem. Buy ‘em under the guise of a gift for a friend. A poor, unfortunate friend.

Alright I think you get the point. And this article’s kind of run out of steam.

What the Hell is a Computer Anyway?

Consider this possible scenario:

Time: late 80s/early 90s

Alice: Bob, do you own a computer?

Bob: Why yes Alice, I do. It’s a 286.

Flash forward a bunch of years to 2006

Alice: Bob, do you own a computer?

Bob: No, I just have a 286.

Funny huh? It’s the same machine, but it used to be considered a computer, and now it’s not. Even funnier is my use of Alice here just as a placeholder, and the fact that Bob no longer has a computer, while the percentage of households with computers in the world has risen dramatically. Bob is obviously some sort of angry backward society-hating Unibomber type chap hell bent on destroying civilization as we know it, and he should be stopped at all costs. I suggest sending in a tag team of Superman, Batman, and the pink Power Ranger.
