very?  Very.

FOr the record, just like last year, I'm not going to change my name again. As a saint, I'm already christmassy enough. I did it on IRC, and that's it.
Title: Re: Holiday names....

As with last year, I can't really think of a Christmas-y name. So I'll just sit back and watch you guys.

I was thinking Tage-mas or something. I think that'd work for you. I had an idea for Stacer too, but it, like so many other things, has slipped my mind.
Title: Re: Holiday names....
Post by: fuzzyoctopus on December 03, 2004, 02:22:42 PM
I will take suggestions and rename to the best one.

stacer, there's always the reindeer option. It's not a very clever play on your name, but it works.

Fuzzy, there's just a host for you.

FuzzyHat
FuzzyStocking
FuzzyElf
FuzzyCandyCane
FuzzyWassail
merryoctopus
fuzzysantapus
Old Lang Fuzzy

just my little brainstorm

I'm knitting a fuzzy scarf for someone for Christmas. Maybe you should be fuzzyscarf.

(It's going to be so cute, by the way. It's one of those ones that you see all over the place, all pink and metallic and shiny.  :D It happens to match my roommate's hair (!) so perhaps I should give it to her, but I was thinking of an old roommate I might want to give it to, too. Hmm.)

nah, she was cool. Just a little different. But considering who was in that crowd, you, me, rob, and ferd, for example, she was pretty normal.

I was really rude to her many times. I always apologize whenever I see her.

You could always just go with "Bun Bun."  You know, because he's a Christmas Icon now.

The earlier mention of wassail remind me of my favorite Christmas specias...The California Raisin's Claymation Christmas Special!

The wraparound story has to do with waffling...errr...wassalling.

Loved that show.  Now if I could only find it on DVD.

In Australia, Christmas is a very Hot time of year. So we have a different way of Celbrating. Namely, a Huge Ham, a Barbeque outside in the sun, Backyard Cricket, and an Esky full of Ice Cold Stubbies! (Imported German is best, Good Aussie like Toohys or XXXX is acceptable, VB will do on a bad day.)

He's a psychopathic bunny from Sluggy Freelance

And he's not a Christmas icon anymore. He was deposed after taking over almost every holiday. Though you can still get a stuffed holiday bunbun

Yeah, I like that.  It's way long though.   "Merry Fishmas" was the best I could come up with last night.  I hadn't been on for like two weeks (basically due to lazyness and a general avoidance of computer labs this time of year) and I just about had a heart attack when I finally came back.  I was like, what's going on?  Who are these people?  

Hey Brenna, what about  "Yule Brenna"?

Bad joke, I know, but still.

Up on the rooftop, Fellfrosch paws -
Out jumps Evil Undead Santa Claus!
Down through the chimney with unholy flame,
All for the little ones' Christmas shame!
Fry fry fry!  Who wouldn't cry?
Fry fry fry!  Who wouldn't cry?
As Evil Santa steals their souls.
Back up to Fellfrosch, away they go!

He visits the naughty boys and girls.

Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on December 16, 2004, 01:52:41 PM
no, i mean, just recognized that he HAD a holiday name.

Ookla is not a magus.

Ookla the MOk is a band
They took their name from a character in the cartoon Thundarr the Barbarian. He was a big brute. Didn't talk. Essentially a wookie, but not really.

The change to Ookla the Mok to Ookla the Magus was just really funny to me.
