Masked Shah 5 Posted December 22, 2006 Merry Festivus eve... My Discordian holiday of Festivus Dec, 23... It started out as Seinfield episode, now it's an offical holiday. http://www.festivuspoles.com/pages/festivus/Video.htm Discordians celebrate Festivus with an aluminum pole, that bear no decorations, and no tinsel. http://www.journaltimes.com/photo_gallerie...video_shell.swf Gifts are given under the rule, that the gift is something niether you or the recepient wants... Chapstick, gum wrappers, fruitcake...etc. Bagles are forbidden on festivus, eating bagles result in serious beatdown. Festivus miracles happen, often. Discordian realise this and search for miracles with a sharp eye. If you find a Festivus miracle, you shout with attacking authority... "IT'S A FESTIVUS MIRACLE!!" Festivus is celebrated in 3 parts. -Drinking (the Festivus Meal) -Feats of Strength -Airing Grievances Drinking is self explained... Beer and hard liquor are the meal for the celebration. Feats of Strength: You have to pin the host of the party, in order to end the celebration. Ambushes, and lowblows are the norm. The host can also challenge guests and beatdown anyone he pleases... if he can. Airing of Grievances: Just like a Roast, except you roast everyone... bosses and family members especially... You tell them how sick you are of them and what ticks you off. Have yourself a happy Festivus tomorrow... I will busy... I'll say ahead of time. http://www.festivusstl.com/site/ http://www.cbrsd.org/nessacus/festivus/nytimes/19FEST.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festivus http://tv.yahoo.com/news/article/urn:newsm...vus_poles__ER:1 Share this post Link to post
