Ain’t that the truth

Cool to see this even though it wasn’t around for another two years.

And to all a good night… Can’t think of a better way of ending the Christmas season than with a viewing of Batman Returns. I hope everyone had a great day today, hope you got some great presents and made even greater memories with your loved ones.

Thanks to Santa @williambwest.bsky.social for helping me finally get my hands on Road Pig. Been wanting this figure for a long time. Looks great. Thank you so much for your time Will! It was so great to see you yesterday, laugh and catch up. A huge highlight of the season for me personally!

I’m gonna take a stab in the dark here and say I am the very first human ever to be invited to light the main candle during Christmas Eve service while wearing a WWF Nailz shirt. My hoodie was zipped up but yeah, that’s gotta be a first in history. I’ll tell the story some other time tho.

Time to wind down with some classic festive tapes. Finally back home. It was a great trip to see friends and family. The last 24 hours have been wild and fun and I hope everyone is having an amazing Christmas as well!

Merry Christmas one and all!

Back at my mom’s house watching A Christmas Story after a very nice church service. I hope you all are having just as nice a Christmas Eve. It’s been a very nice change of pace from the madness of the last few weeks. Stay blessed.

I love that College Park hasn’t changed a bit since 1999. Like it all looks exactly the same as the last time I was here 15 years ago. Today’s a good day to hit a comic store with @williambwest.bsky.social . And what’s the first thing I see when I walk in? GI Joe. Starting this trip off right

How many times am I going to be shocked by just how atrocious MD traffic is? I mean really.

Happy 200 episodes to The Advent Calendar House and congrats to Mike on making this happen for so many years. Here’s to many more fun episodes!

Respect your mothers & fathers and do what they tell you. Obey your teachers and learn a whole lot! Now if you do this, I'll make sure you get good presents from me every year. But if you're bad boys and girls, your name goes in the 'Bad Boys & Girls' book, and I'll bring you something...horrible.

This is essentially doomsday for Playmates. I mean they are the company that the Turtles built. What the ever living f…

Faces of Death: the 60 Minutes Edition

Are you gearing up to have No Holds Barred Christmas?

They’re selling stuffoli in the bakery section in ShopRite. I am definitely in NJ, that’s for sure. Blessed. I fucking love this state so much @allthedamnvamps.bsky.social @sludgecentral.bsky.social @brainexploder.bsky.social

RIP Chris Rea. Thank you for creating some great music including one of my all time favorite Christmas songs. youtu.be/uSjq7x67kzM?...

I miss when gifs were like 2 frames per second. Sometimes 2 frames could be very generous.

Just in case anyone needs a fun Yule log to play while they run around the house doing last second cooking and cleaning, the Ghostbusters Stay Puft Yule Log is a perfect choice! youtu.be/nmxfHqwHh1E?...

I think so many of us loved this show just because it was so…odd…and different. I guess quirky is the right word, but it was a damn funny show. The theme song still slaps. And obviously the cast was great. I can’t wait to check this one out! I’m sure it’ll be another home run by Will and Adam!

4 days away from the big day(or 3 for some of you) and this episode is gonna get me through that drive back home.

What even is a rabbit I mean really

That Home Alone sketch was hilarious but Colin Jost as Buzz is what really sent me over the edge. Hilarious

Welp.

I was literally thinking earlier this week how I miss Bjork impressions. Tonight has been a great show btw

@brainexploder.bsky.social will tell you, summer is always in our hearts, our minds and in our stomachs. Cheese fries are always the solution. Winter, summer, always.

Finally finishing up Welcome To Derry and it is fantastic. Definitely recommended but I can’t help but think this would also be a great Nightmare On Elm Street prequel series too. I’m selfish though, I just want them to put some faith back in Freddy. I know it won’t happen but it would be great.

Found this awesome GI Joe wallet at Ross featuring Falcon, Gung Ho and FastDraw. It utilizes the 1987 catalog art that was also used on merchandising such as lunchboxes, puzzles, sleeping bags, etc. throughout the year.

They’re still here hanging on for dear life.

Happy to report that good decisions were made today.

@williambwest.bsky.social Bowen Yang is gone after tomorrow. Interesting

I have had no holiday spirit this season no matter how hard I try. It does break my heart to know so many others are feeling the same way. It’s been a rough one for a lot of people in my life. That said, we’re almost there. We made it this far, let’s try to get through it together.

We are talking Bret-Shawn level hatred. I promise you those two will make everyone’s life either more entertaining come high school because they will be fighting forever.

OMG. OMG.

“But that’s a leaked trailer! We need to wait” Oh shut up. Leak everything. Hell leak that entire movie for all I care. At this point I’ll be amazed if it doesn’t get pushed back a year.

Your Christmas playlist just got even better. youtu.be/ajAxevEWgJg?...

It’s a good night to revisit Degrassi Junior High.

That Bret shirt is absolutely fantastic

Ok so sometimes I forget there’s CBS WUSA 9 airings of Charlie Brown and Frosty following the Simpsons. This was given to me many many years ago by a former friend who recorded that night. There’s legit something so comforting about watching Charlie Brown in second generation vhs quality.

One of my prized pieces in my movie collection is an original broadcast of The Simpsons Christmas Special from 1989. This aired on the local Fox 5 back home in DC so to have all these local commercials from my childhood makes it that much better of a viewing experience.

I think the combination of snacking on a Hickory Farms gift set while watching old sitcom Christmas episodes would fix all our problems right now

The Simpsons is 36 years old today. Here’s an old podcast about the Christmas special I made sure not to miss in 1989, with @mserinmevans.bsky.social, @brandonmedley.bsky.social, & @imgonnadj24.bsky.social.

Incredible work. Very proud to be apart of this community.

Ok so going through this picture and was trying to ID the ET poster that was on my wall. It seems to be a Universal Studios poster but I can’t think of anyone in my family(cousins or aunts) going to Universal in 90/91 and bringing this back for us. Were these given out elsewhere as a promo?

RIP Bob Burns who brought Tracy The Gorilla in the live action. Filmation’s Ghost Busters to life.

Fun fact: Pepsi Holiday Spice was *not* a promotional tie in for The Polar Express. Some often think it was because they both came out at the same time.

In the late ’80s, my local PBS affiliate started following “Sesame Street” with “Shalom Sesame,” a co-production with the show’s counterpart in Israel. Here’s a podcast with @sarahshay.com about its Hanukkah episode, featuring Jeremy Miller, Nell Carter, and a giant Muppet porcupine.

Whoever is running the WWE Vault, give them a promotion right now. youtu.be/mue-uDqQCAw?...
