Well, it appears that all grievances have been aired and I haven't checked the official stats but I'm gonna go ahead and assume that 46 grievances does not only break a record but it completely shatters it. That was an endurance trial and we here at the AofG are extremely grateful to all who contributed. I haven't even had the chance to read through most of these yet and I know they were coming out pretty quickly but my suggestion for all of you who couldn't keep up would be to save this link and drop by whenever you have some time to kill because what this excercise always proves is that our readers are not only a bunch of cynical pricks, but they're some of the most creative, intelligent, and downright hilarious folks around these here internets.
Now the bad news. I'm spent. If you ever told me that copying, pasting, and editing 46 blog posts would have been this exhausting, I would have laughed at you. As it stands now, I can't look at my computer anymore. I'm looking forward to having about eight more of these champagnes and watching the Steelers miserably underperform in high-def...so that's what I'm gonna do.
Of course this means no feats of strength. Does that make me a tremendous pussy? You bet it does! Fortunately, I was able to find a loophole. Nobody wants to see me stagger into the Feats of Strength and proceed to get pinned in the first 5 minutes anyway and Festivus doesn't have to end tonight. This is an unofficial observance. We have until Sunday night to finish this thing.
The Feats of Strength will launch sometime tomorrow and hopefully we can put this bad boy to rest. I'm bringing my A-game though. In the meantime, Happy Festivus to all!
I actually think it's better you have it tomorrow while everyone (who is working) is at work.

Outstanding work today, Unc. Outstanding.
If there was ever a day in my new job that I could drastically underperform even more than I usually do, it was certainly today.
Tomorrow is going to be fun.

Excellent plan.
Less than excellent beer.

Cheers to you, Vandelay. Bloody well done. Nice touch with the High Life as well. You are probably the most important part of this blog in the last 25 years. I'm sure you'll be wearing your feats of strength tits to the match tomorrow.

Champagne of beers, eh?
As a 2 time MC for the Festivus extravaganza, I can tell you all that it is a herculean task, and that VDL crushed it today. Well done, my man.

I didn't see my list of grievances anywhere. :( I emailed them in yesterday.
Oh well, I'll just have to add this to next year's list of grievances.

You did a fine job Vandelay. Fine job indeed. I'll make a contribution to the Human Fund in your honor...

You made it, Art, well done and great job. And doing the Feats of Strength tomorrow? Brilliant. Can't believe I didn't think of that...
Posted by: Frank | December 20, 2007 at 07:56 PM
Jennifer, I didn't see them. Send them again to Festivus1223@gmail.com and I'll get them up.

Great job, Vandelay. I tip my hat to you.
One question: No Corona Light?
(Sorry, it just had to be asked.)

and the beer is perfect.

Nice work. I didn't really have anything I wanted to grieve on. I haven't been drinking as much as I should have been over the past few weeks.

I'd have to go with PBR instead.
