Happy Christmas to the Reason writers and cartoonists and especially to the commentariat without whom this site would be a dull place indeed.
Fuck off, slaver!
I don't spout off for your benefit, or anybody's but mine.
Indeed!
'It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest.'
Merry Christmas to all,even Warty
Really?! You are in the spirit of the day!
Of course, we are still leaving STEVE SMITH out of it, right?
Yes,he's a djinn,you know.
Merry Christmas commentariat - what's cooking?
I'm having pan seared filet mignon with roasted porta bella and onions in a garlic,butter and blue cheese sauce. Whole skin on mashed potatoes with cheddar cheese,fresh whole grain rolls and a green salad. And several stouts.
Eggs over-medium, bacon, and fresh home made bread. yum
Oh...after which I will be bbq'ing pork ribs with chipole sauce and baking asparagus wrapped in bacon. Not very traditional but good stuff.
Sirloin roast, pork pie, Yorkshire pudding, veggies, key lime cheesecake. And a few other assorted odds and ends.
Oh,key lime pie,my second favorite right behind cheese cake.
*drools*
First time I have key lime pie was in the Keys,oh,and had alligator on that trip at that old trading post in the Everglades where the gators walk around in the back yard.Good times.Took a air boat ride also.
You might be turning into Florida Man - careful!
Not into British pudding,I will have their stout today though.The oatmeal stout is thicker and richer too!!
Pan-seared filet mignon, potatoes Robuchon (as much butter as you can incorporate without the emulsion breaking - I usually get at least 3:1 potatoes : butter, sometimes all the way to 2:1), seared scallops on rings of delicata squash roasted with brown sugar and pancetta, grilled asparagus, homemade cheesecake.
Merry Christmas (Happy Federal Holiday??? WTF???)!!!!
Maple sausage patties with a hint of Texas Pete. And merry Christmas you filthy mammals!
I know y'all are a conquering, carnivorous species....but what the heck did ol' Pete do to deserve bein' et on Christmas Day?!?!?!
Baked ham, and for dessert, an Amish style cake for which I have been fermenting peaches, cherries, and pineapple in a jar on the countertop for the past month. Today it will pay off!
We're going to an Italian place in Dupont Circle.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Happy Federal Holiday! May the state bless and enrich you.
Merry Christmas!
This Friday Funny isn't bad.
NNEDZ MOAR LABELZ!
Looks like someone spiked his eggnog with Viagra.
That's not Viagra.
I make eggnog with scotch,just scotch.
Santa's head is the same size as the rest of his body. And midget Santa is giving John Housman an elephant's colon for Christmas? That's fucked up, Bok; even for you.
Merry Christmas Reasonoids!!!
I actually snorted at "elephant's colon" - nicely done.
Wow man bring on 2016 already dude. For real.

Funnier than the wounded warrior project ad on the main page.
I don't get that ad. (I get one for some film called "The right to breathe".)
Beaker has really let himself go.
All that stress in the lab, I reckon.
Did anybody get a woodchipper for Christmas?
Well your mother did mention something about a new device...
Don't trust the medium.
I posted this yesterday but it is relevant to this Friday Funny. Merry Christmas.
"Well, if you would've told me this year that we'd be standing here celebrating the passage of an omnibus bill, with no poison pill riders, at higher [spending] levels above sequesters than even the president requested, I wouldn't have believed it, but here we are," Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer told reporters shortly after the $1.1 trillion omnibus bill was passed."
In 2015, "we wanted to get rid of sequestration, we were able to do that," gloated the Democrats' leader in the Senate, Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV)2%
. "We wanted to make sure there is parity between defense and the middle class, we wanted to make sure that we kept these poison pills off the legislation? All three goals we had, we accomplished," he said. Ryan's omnibus deal "caps off a successful year for Senate Democrats," he added.
Over in the House, the Democrats' upbeat press conference began with laughter, according to the transcript."
""I said I would not accept a lot of [conservative] ideological riders that were attached to a big budget deal," President Barack Obama said Friday, at his end-of-year press conference. "And because of some terrific negotiations by the Democrats up on Capitol Hill and I think some pretty good work by our legislative staff here? it was a good win," he said. "We met our goals," he said."
Maybe we can give the R's pink slips for Thanksgiving.
Things are tough and times are hard {well not for us } here's your fucking Christmas card. -Harry Reid D- 7 level of hell.
Merry Christmas to all of you. If any of you happen to have bite marks, it might have been me.
Love,
Vampire
