Think Glenn is crossing over into Irk's territory. Isn't Christmas starting too early is one of Irk's "Maybe it bothers me more than it should" things?
@jsh139@mehjohnson@Cinoclav and then there's the insanity of Texas calling everything Coke. Everyone acts like it's fine even though it's totally nonsensical. "Yes, I'd like a coke." "What kind?" "Sprite." WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?
@JonT Just one more reason that the only thing good about Texas is meh. Yeah, there's no way I could hold back my sarcastic anger if I dealt with that on a regular basis.
@JonT I was very frustrated with that as well and calling something "pop" there got me all sorts of made fun of (teenager when I lived there) I force trained myself to say soda because that was not as stupid as "coke" and was more acceptable to those who mocked me.
@bkharmon I assumed it was a spoiled rich dude that had to open a 11 gifts before xmas. You do realize you are saying Christmas last almost %12 of the year
Twelve days... lemme see, Christmas eve, Christmas, Boxing Day, New Year Eve, New Year Day, what else? Help me out... ooo Three Kings Day! And another six... what are they?
So Glen seems to be from the Midwest, calling it Pop and all...
And Christmas runs from the 25th until January 6th. 12 days. I find it funny when people have their Christmas trees out at the curb on December 26th. IT'S NOT OVER!!!!!
@BillLehecka It bugs me when I see that, but then I just assume those are the people who put them up in October and got sick of Christmas before it actually started
can of pop
Glen and Nordstrom are on the same page.........think about that for a minute

@BabyBear I think Christmas being thrust upon everyone months early is something bothers Glen exactly as much as it should.
My new desktop image:
I'm totally in agreement with Glen here- a rarity.
I wonder who the inspiration for Glen was.
@Kevin Dr Scholls?
I wholeheartedly agree with Glen on this one. Let Thanksgiving end before Christmas begins!
That being said, I did put my Christmas lights up yesterday because it was warm out. But I won't turn them on until Black Friday ;)
Oh, and it's SODA. Not POP.
@jsh139 Nope! Soda is for tummy ache, pop is sweet drinking.
@jsh139 I find it interesting that the Soda vs. Pop map (http://popvssoda.com/) correlates with the Most Educated States Map (http://www.businessinsider.com/most-educated-states-map-2014-3)
@Cinoclav HAHA, that's awesome.

@JonT That's ridiculous. A Coke is a Coke. A Sprite is a Sprite. They're all soda.

@Cinoclav @jsh139 @chellemonkey thank you for your support, I won't get any around here...
@JonT Lol. Maybe start telling them "Yall lemme pop a can of coke soda.'
Until Glen ruined it.
JK Glen, thanks for drawing a line. My line would be 12 days, based on the song.
@caffeine_dude the twelve days of Christmas start on Christmas.

@PocketBrain The 12 Days of Christmas are from Christmas 12/25 to Epiphany 1/6

Glen - be glad that your host @matthew is still wearing Not So Action Packed instead of Meh! Christmas and a Crappy New Year.
Is fake mistletoe as good as the real stuff?
@Teripie They taste about the same.
I fully expected Glen to be the way-too-into-Christmas guy. Way to not meet expectations @matthew
Glen is SUPER into Christmas, is why he's such a stickler for observing it correctly
@chellemonkey I was thinking he was embarrassed that Matthew was wearing a Santa hat before him, so he flipped his normal position on Early Christmas.
@matthew The red and white stripes make perfect sense now!
Heh, I complained about this over on woot just before I saw it here.
