Yillara Skye 1 Posted December 24, 2004 (edited) [ALIGN=center]11. Mountain Dew-nog. Yeesh, not the two together!! I have drank Mountain Dew and a few minutes later taken a sip of Egg Nog. Not a good idea, believe me! 9. Designing elf-killing levels for your favourite FPS. That sounds like something my brother would do. 8. Explaining to children how it would be physically impossible for Santa to deliver all the presents. Actually, a teacher of mine in high school printed out this whole document on how it was impossible for Santa to deliver the presents. We all were dying of laughter! If I can locate a copy of it online I will post it. 7. Wear a mistletoe hat and keep fingers crossed. A couple of coworkers said they were going to tie mistletoe over my head... Just to be a bunch of wisenheimers. 5. Put a santa hat on your avatar. I did that last year. :blush 2: 3. Decorating the tree with SDRAM and CPUs burned out from your last overclocking experiment. Oh good grief...that sounds like decorations my brother might have if he had a tree of his own. 2. Rewriting Christmas carols in Tolkien's Elvish. Before even telling my family about this thread... I can tell you, my family and I would agree this would be kinda cool! 291107[/snapback] Edited December 24, 2004 by Yillara_Soong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
