This is our tree. My (now) 18 year old son put on these ornaments. The lizard beanie baby is named Ford (Found On Road Dead). There’s a story behind it that I’ll tell when I have more time.
So about Ford. 20+ years ago the Wife and I lived in a second story apartment in Stillwater. I looked out the window and saw this green thing laying on the road. Being curious, I went and got it.
This green thing was a beanie baby or something like it. I think possibly from McDonald’s. For whatever reason I kept it.
Fast forward an unknown number of years and this beanie thing shows up around Christmas time. I put a hanger on him and name him Ford.

Call me dense, but I had to read those lines several times before I got it. “Hard” to believe since I am the one that does most of the double entendres etc around here.
I like it!

@jst1ofknd But he’s alive!
@ELUNO
My oldest added more stuffing to him a year or more ago. Not sure when.
@jst1ofknd I don’t think he’s the McDonald’s beanie baby…
And I thought ford was fix or replace daily but I like found on road dead. The 97 is still rolling though
That lizard is awe (fuck you mediocrebot) some!!
Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree!
Harder, Christmas tree!
(This is not my joke, but I wish it was.)
@UncleVinny
