Christmas Cheer

Journal (H)elix1's Journal: Christmas abomination 2

Upside down Christmas tree, FTW. I understand the history, why back in the day folks would hang them from the large vaulted ceilings and what not. No problems with the historical aspects of it. (Heck, if I had a castle, might give something like that a try) What I don't get are the plastic trees on a stick, plugged into the base upside down. Or worse, listing to a customer complain about the live tree they chopped off the tip, planted it in a tree holder, and then wondered why it kept breaking and falling over. (Ultimate solution? Cut the top third of the tree off, and then reshape it as a cone with the hedge trimmers...) Guess I don't appreciate haute couture, or need some better crack to see what these markadroids were thinking. Course I know what they were thinking - how can we charge a premium for a commodity item? Put it in upside down!

Just too funny. These folks are serious. Look around, you will see them... Argh.
