This man is not wrong. Here’s my take on Christmas. When we had Christmas, it was because all year, this was your chance to get the one thing that you could never get. That’s why we couldn’t sleep the night before because you were like, I need to get that green BMX bike. And that’s the only day to get it. This is it.
But now there’s Amazon where if your kid really wants it, you’ll just be like, it’ll be here Thursday, at 10:34.
So they don’t have the need for Christmas like we do in terms of having to use that day to get everything that you wanted on the planet. Kids show up Christmas morning. They saunter in at about 9 or 11 in the morning, you know, like a hungover dad, like just sitting on the edge of the couch, like what’s up? Like they’re not running down the stairs because they already have most of the stuff they want.  ~Al Jackson- comedian

[Friday Joke] a guy goes into the store and asks the clerk for some Polish sausage. The clerk asks, “Are you Polish?”
The guy says, “I am. But if I ask for Italian sausage, would you ask if I am Italian? Or if I ask for a Kosher hot dog, would you ask if I am Jewish?
The clerk says, “No”.
Guy says, “Then why did you ask if I am Polish?”
Clerk says, “Sir, this is a Home Depot.”

[Anti-drone Weapon] The mysterious drones in New Jersey may not be a threat—but America’s anti-drone weapons sure are. While the FBI says a recent spate of drone sightings over New Jersey don’t pose a threat to national security, the event is a stark reminder that drone warfare could one day reach America. Link
[Friday Joke] My neighbors are a couple of gay woman who want a child, but the “old fashioned way”.
They asked me to have sexual relations with them until one of them got pregnant. It’s been six months now and I still don’t know how to tell them that I had a vasectomy two years ago.
