Pick My Christmas Blabber

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Pick My Christmas Blabber

Post by bumblemusprime » Tue Nov 22, 2011 3:10 pm

Some of you may remember the column I wrote last Christmas:

http://www.intergalacticmedicineshow.co ... rticle=040

Some previous Christmases include the Twelve Days of X-Men and this:

I'm stumped on where to go this year for the inevitable holiday column. Thirteen hundred words on Christmas Breaker?

Or have a glass full of spare change near their beds. That they don't have.

Sure!

'Tis the season to give

She let the Autobots live

Is she a quadrapleigic faker?

No, it's just good ol' Circuit Breaker


Or words to that effect.
For now, it seems like IDW wants my money.

A Christmas Story? Is TF #81 your Red Ryder BB Gun?

A New 52 Santa Claus?

A Hanukkah Themed Column?

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer in the 12 Days/Twas' style?

An explosive expose on why Batman smells and how Robin laid an egg?

I keep misreading the title of this thread as 'Pick my Christmas bladder'.

Which I think we can all agree would be much more entertaining. I'll get the tweezers.

You need to move places where you don't know anyone more often. Everything Karl is new again.

It pleases me to appeal to your vanity and then subsequently mock it.
