Default December 25


Merry Christmas! First things first: as promised, here's Derek's final fiver of this event: "Lexmas," in which Lex learns that it's always Christmas in Heaven. (And Hell? Valentine's Day, 24/7.)


Unfortunately, I've discovered I don't have a copy of the surprise guest fiver here in Ottawa. Hopefully the author can send me a copy; if not, it'll have to wait till I get back. Fortunately, I do have a backup -- a Top 10 list from me. Here's the first Smallville "girlfriend list": The Top 10 Signs That Your Girlfriend is Lana Lang.

Supes seems to attract that type an awful lot.

(By the by, you should actually have used there either "unobservity" or "disobserviosity". Just FYI. )

Merry hoho! And did you write that fiver on September 19 and not post it, or is that a copy-paste-forget-to-overwrite error?

There you go again, making stuff up. The date on that list isn't September 19. And it NEVER WAS.

Jedi: Actually, I looked it up and apparently that's the correct word.

"Merry hoho"?

Exactly! Why use the correct one when you can use a made up one that's even better?

"Happy Decemberween"? Or perhaps "Merry Non-Denominational Generic Festive Event Day"?

The correct expression is "Happy Non-Denominational Season-Specific Gift-Giving Occasion."

But yours was good too.

Ah, Seinfeld. Yet another US comedy I've never watched a single episode of. :P

Try using that in Christmas songs in place of Christmas. They had a fake ad on John Boy and Billy that was selling an album of Non-Demoninational Christmas music

We wish you a Happy Non-Denominational Season-Specific Gift-Giving Occasion

O Happy Non-Denominational Season-Specific Gift-Giving Occasion Tree
