I know, right? My very own NGIP shoes! Woo hoo!
What about you? Did you get cool stuff for Christmas too?
Okay, good - now that that's over, it's high time you thought about gearing up for Christmas. Of 2010.
Why? Because if Rite Aid's behavior is any indication of this nation's priorities, we need to act now to stay ahead of the curve.
On December 21, 2009, which some of you may not know, is approximately four days BEFORE Christmas, Kim Tracy Prince (of House of Prince) tweeted the following:
On December 21, mind you. You know what this means, right? It means that in June of 2010, they will be taking down Thanksgiving decorations and putting up Christmas stuff. And that means that on December 20th of 2010, they'll be putting up Christmas decorations again and some loser might say to the blue-aproned employees at Rite Aid, "Wow, this is so nice that you are only just now putting out the Santas and the Christmas music, so we don't have to be bombarded by it all for two months beginning in October."
And the oppressed drugstore employee (who's still pulling staples out of his head from the previous holiday decorating debacle) will say, "Oh, this isn't for Christmas now, it's for Christmas of 2011". Which he will pronounce "Twenty Eleven" instead of "Two Thousand Eleven" because the National Decorating Committee at Rite Aid has been pronouncing things using "Twenty" for awhile now. In fact, they just finished their meeting this morning discussing the "Twenty-Fifty" 4th of July holographic mobile hangings that will automatically and digitally convert into Four Leaf Clover mini-Hovercrafts for St. Patrick's Day of "Twenty Sixty".
In other words, if you want to see the future, shop at Rite-Aid.
Oh, and I'd like to wish you a Happy New Year, but I don't know if I should be sending out salutations for 2010, or 2011.
Hey, remember that video game I wrote for? Coconut Queen, from iWin Games?
