fa la la la laaa la la la laaaa

It's September! What better time to start selling Christmas decorations?

Sadly enough, when I walked through Kmart yesterday, I came across a whole row of artificial Christmas trees, including this: (or something very like it)


A Yuletide palm tree!

The Kmart one had multi-coloured lights, but otherwise it's very similar.

If I ever start buying fake palm trees made out of glitter with multi-coloured lights and claim that it's somehow related to a spiritual festival, please slap me.

That's pitiful, on so many levels...

As much as that made me laugh, it also reminded me of my favorite quote from "Hannah and Her Sisters":

"If Jesus came back and saw what's going on in his name, he'd never stop throwing up."
