Recognize that the OP's tree is the exact tree that Linus revolted against.

Yep, several of my relatives sported those when I was a kid. And I still look at pre-lit trees as new-fangled. I also wonder where Tinsel went.

Into, and (partially) out of, the cat.

Ever see how "motivated" a cat with a piece of tinsel hanging out of it's butt is?

You'd swear it's on fire......

You think that's bad, I know this one future Darwin award winner who would say "question" before asking a question. That's annoying

I always wanted to say "answer" and then answer his question

Quote History

Quoted:
Every time I hear a new name for a "new" music genre.

There are 5 musical genres, mother fuckers. Classical, rock, metal, blues/jazz (call it either call it both, call it 2 different things go fuck yourself, they're the same genre), and country. If it doesn't fit in those 5, it's "other." That's it.

The number seems to grow exponentially. When really it's just a lot more "other."
Rap/Pop? Other
Choir hymn? Other
Gregorian monks? Other
Mongolian throat humming? Other

You split Metal from Rock, but lump Blues with Jazz?

I'm almost tempted to guess that you're between 33 and 37 years' old.

Tinsel has a special place in the deep fires of hell, as far as I'm concerned.

I'm confused are we bitching about young whippersnappers or reminiscing about cool shit from our youth?

Bitching:
I fucking hate most new music. Niki Minaj, FUN, Justin Beiber, Selena Gomez...This is me when that shit comes on the radio.

Reminiscing: GI Joes and Micro Machines. My poor parent's feet

I'm not going to guess his age, but you're right - that's odd.

If you're going to lump something together, Rock and Metal would be the two to combine.

But this:

Is emphatically NOT this:

My Aunt and Uncle had one of those trees as a kid.

We had a real one, even thought the branches were much more "sparse" back then, unlike the plantation grown ones that you get today. If a branch was missing in an area, my grandfather would drill a hole in the trunk and insert one.
