Halloween is a holiday.
@RiotDemon halloween is definitely a holiday.
@RiotDemon thats krampus in a mask!
@thismyusername uh oh, you caught me!
@cinoclav careful what you wish for, that bitch is fierce!
@carl669 Exactly.
@cinoclav that unicorn is terrifying.
@RiotDemon Pretty much what I was going for.
@carl669
Re @KittySprinkles
Then we two will get along nicely.
/giphy bitches
@cinoclav I’m in a pretty “burn Christmas to the ground” mood, but that fucking unicorn is delightful.
@KittySprinkles
@mfladd that’ll do
@cinoclav I saw your unicorn sweater at Marshalls of all places! I didn’t notice the price.
@mfladd It was about $24 on Amazon. Cheaper at Kohls but I had to order a larger size and they didn’t have it anymore. It runs incredibly small.
Bah, humbug. You don’t get to see my boobs. Deal with it.
@sammydog01 ohhh… i do like Krampus shirts.
@carl669 I wore it to the Krampus parade last year. Good times.
What if it’s not here yet because it was just released two days ago?

@narfcake i guess i didn’t really give a close date for this contest. re-post when you get the shirt.
@carl669 Sounds fair. Given that the order numbers have increased 11,000 since my last order there a little over a week ago and this is a new design so it hasn’t been printed yet, it’ll probably be about 3 weeks when I get it in.
@narfcake dammit jim, i’m a doctor, not a time lord. wait, i’m not a doctor. but my brother is, does that count? still doesn’t solve the time issue. maybe pick a current favorite then instead of a future favorite?
@carl669 Whaaaa?! You know I don’t have
anymanyplentya plethora of other holiday catshirts … /s(I’ll post a couple copies of this tonight …)

@carl669 Annnnd it actually shipped out last night! I wasn’t expecting that.
@carl669
You’re looking very buff, @carl669.
/giphy Meowww…
@Barney awww… thank you! gotta stay (somewhat) fit in order to keep up with the boy.
@carl669
Hope he sometimes turns his hand around so that the palm faces the camera.
Has all the makings of a potential serious burnt-orange-blooded Texas Longhorn if you ask me.
@f00l i don’t know. his current favorite team is the detroit lions, only because he likes lions. i’m gonna have a hard time switching him over to a longhorn.
@carl669
It’s cool. No need to switch.
NCAA vs NFL.
But he clearly has native talent.
One on a squishy AA to wear and one on a mutant Anvil that I don’t care, since I bought it at a thrift store for all of $2. It was only 6 weeks old when I bought it but shrunken up to under an AA small.

@narfcake
Eye got this one.
@f00l @narfcake that was our family xmas shirt last year
Shrinkage comparison. Anvil XL vs AA small.
I found this shirt in my pile of Christmas shirts- I forgot I had it and it’s one of my favorites! Wearing it today (under a sweatshirt because I live in the bible belt).
I made this one and got one for each member of the family. I’ll have to post a ridiculous family photo once they all arrive.
@marcee I like it! I would probably buy that shirt.
@therealjrn Lucky for you, it’s for sale! But also, thanks!
@marcee yay!
@marcee I laughed when I saw this on the sale – it is a thing of beauty!
This was me…it took a bit for the actual image to sink in at the work Christmas party…
@tightwad Oh crap it’s anatomically correct.
@sammydog01 I don’t know how “correct” it is but it sure is anatomical!
@sammydog01 @tightwad I’ve never seen a male unicorn that DIDN’T look like that.
/giphy It’s too early for Christmas
@ELUNO i said holiday apparel though. mine just happens to be a christmas shirt.
@rtjhnstn damn man. you’re so white you blended into the background!

@Cerridwyn that’s not you! disqualified!
@carl669 how do you know?
@Cerridwyn Right!
@Cerridwyn that polar bear is far too young to type.
@narfcake well, aren’t you a

@carl669 okay 2 cents for that reply
I made this:
pixel battle sweater
@mj made?
MY BOX OF CRAP HAD A CHRISTMAS SHIRT IN MY SIZE!
@sammydog01 nice!
@sammydog01 hah. I’m wearing that right now and was planning on posting a photo later.
I got mine months ago when woot was doing the random shirts for $2-3.
@sammydog01 My copy has a hole in it.
@OldCatLady Guess what I’m wearing? GUESS!!!
@sammydog01 Groot! You’re wearing Groot. Congratulations! My box isn’t due until Saturday. I’d wear my Christmas sweatshirts, but it’s 84 outside.
@sammydog01 Or maybe Krampus, and drinking from a Krampus mug, as I am.
@OldCatLady NOOOOOO!
I wore them to school to pick up my teenager and said very loudly “Did you see my shoes light up?” It’s totally not my fault he doesn’t have friends.
I had hot cocoa in my Krampus mug. It tasted special.
@sammydog01 Hahahahaha! I love mine! They make me smile. You’re never too old for Christmas toys.
/image Christmas crocs
@OldCatLady I need a candy cane Jibbitz!
@sammydog01 Me too. Those beat the old clip-on shoe accessory things all hollow.
@OldCatLady I have been wearing my Christmas crocs everywhere and wore them to see Star Wars last night. Every time I stretched my legs they lit up in the dark theater. My son pretended to not know me. I love those things.
(Sale crocs are an additional 40% off through the crocs club today and a coupon for an extra 10% off popped up on my computer. I’ll be wearing palm trees this summer!)
@sammydog01
Crocs can be ugly/beautiful.
/giphy crocs
@f00l I swore to never wear Crocs and then bought a pair of fuzzy ones for slippers- they cured my plantar faciitis. So I have a medical excuse for wearing ugly shoes. Plus they light up!
@sammydog01 You’re a dutiful parent, because embarrassing your kids is part of the job. I dearly love clothes that are decorated. Palm trees? Wait, let me go look. Dang.
@OldCatLady Summer twinsies too?
@sammydog01 Summer here starts in March, so probably.
@OldCatLady I bought these:
and these:
And I just realized I took over the holiday apparel thread. Sorry @carl669. at least I bumped it for you.
@sammydog01 You forgot to say the secret word that excuses any overtaking of a @carl669 thread.
Fuck.
There. It’s on-topic again.
@sammydog01
Fucking run with it.
@f00l
/giphy fucking run
I just ordered this GEM yesterday, so technically, I don’t have it…yet, but IMO this is The Winner!! Now about that roughing up…my address is 3718…
@tohar1 umm… where’d you get it? asking for a friend.
@carl669 I keep seeing the ad for these on meh.com, lol.
@carl669 when you Google search the image, a bunch of different retailers come up. Also photos of it being worn:
Guess you need big arms to look convincing.
@RiotDemon Zoro and TeeTurtle ads here.
(Feel free to guess which one is work related.)
I got out my holiday coffee mug today. (@carl669 if you need a prize I may have one or two or five extras- I’m not sure if I even opened all the boxes. Woot had a sale.)
@sammydog01 sure. i’ll take one. for a prize. yeah… umm… a prize. to like, give someone else. mmm hmm. that’s it. giving. and stuff.
@carl669 Write to sammydog001 at gmail. I’ll send two in case one falls off the back of the truck.
@oldcatlady You bought a bunch of these too, didn’t you? Are you drinking whatever they let you drink out of them yet?
@sammydog01 I certainly am. I can have coffee again, and tea. The world is a safer place, and I have a few hard-to-buy for friends who are getting these.
@OldCatLady Your friends sound fun. (And congrats on the coffee.)
/giphy drinking coffee
This is the sweater I wore last year for the first and only annual ugly Christmas sweater contest at work. While it may not appear ugly here, I stapled bows, holiday lights, holly and other holiday-related crap to the sweater to enhance the beauty of the cat. Oddly enough, I won first prize – a $50 Visa gift card.
@heartny Nice kitty!
@heartny Did you buy more sweaters with the money?
@therealjrn I don’t remember what I did with the money, but I’m sure I bought something important
I think I would like to get this sweater:
I’m baking cookies today. A new Star Wars movie is a holiday, right?
(That apron is now covered in flour.)
Gamiss.com in their “Clearance” section…

@tohar1 damn. only double XL left.
Tried to take a pic of me wearing it @carl669, but couldn’t get all the words in!!
I gave this to my second-favorite sister-in-law last year:
But I haven’t gotten a picture of her wearing it yet.
I found this at Walmart. They didn’t have it in my size so I bought it for my daughter. So fluffy!
