Offensive
I've been getting some flack lately for some of the things I've said. They've been insensitive, callous - even offensive. My wife took me to task for being bitter and cynical. I told her that it's only going to get worse as the "holidays" approach, especially if I'm lured out of my cage to go to stores. Why, just yesterday, the red and green decorations at the grocery store made me contemplate reindeericide.

All the fake cheer, all the ringing bells, all the extra traffic, all the long lines, all the sappy, crappy Santas and bright penguins and laser-nosed reindeer - all this conspire to overshadow even my arch-nemesis Hello Kitty as the bane of my existence for one month out of the year.

So yeah, it makes me cranky, and when I get cranky, I rag on things. I don't set out to offend, but it happens. If it helps - and it probably doesn't - everything's fair game when I get on one of my holiday jags. If you don't like it, I suggest skipping this blog until after the solstice, at which point I usually start to feel better.

But just to show that I'm an equal opportunity offender, I present these gems, collected from the Internet. Of course, I don't find these funny at all; in fact, they offend me terribly. *snicker*
