Stolen from Erik’s Facebook:
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?
Depends on the gift that’s going in it. Aren’t some things just designed to go in a gift bag?
2. Real tree or Artificial?
None of the above. I haven’t put up a tree since 2001 and gave all the family heirloom ornaments to my sister—who positively orgasms Christmas.
3. When do you put up the tree?
See #2.
4. When do you take the tree down?
See #2.
5. Do you like eggnog?
One glass a year is usually enough.
6. Favorite gift received as a child?
It would have to be the model of the Saturn V rocket I received the year of the moon landing.
Yes, I was a major geek.
7. Hardest person to buy for?
Dad
8. Easiest person to buy for?
Lee
9. Do you have a nativity scene?
Umm… no. What does Xmas have to do with Jeebus?
10. Mail or email Christmas cards?
Real mail, thankyouverymuch.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?
Those memories have been wiped to provide storage for more important information.

The original Grinch, of course. Puleeze.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?
At some point after Thanksgiving and before Christmas.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?
You mean regifting? Never.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?
Turkey.
16. Lights on the tree?
See #2.
17. Favorite Christmas song?
I’m usually sick of them all by December 1st, but if I had to choose one, I’d say Carol of the Bells.
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home?
Stay home.
19. Can you name all of Santa’s reindeer?
Does it matter? I can’t name the characters in the Bible either, and they’re about as real as the reindeer.

Eve.

24. Favorite for Christmas dinner?
Umm, wasn’t that asked on #15?
25. What do you want for Christmas this year?
I have no idea. When I need something, I go buy it (if I can afford it). I do the same for others. Why should there be a “special” holiday just for that?
26. Who is most likely to respond to this?
Why does this question even get listed?
27. Who is least likely to respond to this?
What I said on my previous answer.
Yes, as you can tell—I’m one of those people.
