Christmas Light Contisure

It's December which means a couple of things: bad traffic, being broke, booze, holiday cheer, etc. etc. I also now deem it acceptable to hang your Christmas lights (I know you were all waiting for my blessing).

I don't, however, deem it acceptable to decorate your house like a drunk two-year-old. That's right, I'm judging you when you decorate your house horribly and I've decided to dedicate my blog in December to documenting it.

This all spawns from conversations I've had with my dad over the years about all the crimes against Christmas being committed. It culminated this morning when someone posted a picture of their "first outside Christmas decorations" with pride on Facebook and it looked BAD. So, I did the only obvious thing and sent a screen shot to my dad to make fun of them and he suggested I write a blog (at least my dad thinks I'm funny, right?). I won't call said person out because I'm not THAT mean but I do hope they read this series and do better next year.

Anyways, I'm sure you are wondering:

1.Why are YOU an expert?
2. Why so bitter?

1. I'm an expert because I say so.
2. I am bitter because the first 12 years of my life I lived across from this guy:

 

If you live in Kent, then you probably know this house on Longmere near Fred Fuller park. I bet you have even driven past it to check out their display. AND I bet you never looked across the street from this mess at the nicely decorated, modest, cute house; THAT WAS MY HOUSE!!!! I spent 12 years watching, what used to be a slightly-gaudy but mostly-fun display, turn in to this shit show:

 

Now, I exact my revenge on this house and all its ugly cousins. Taking pictures of the horrible and the lovely for no reason other than I think I'm funny (and don't forget, my dad thinks so too). I hope you'll follow along and Happy Holidays.

Ps. I borrowed these pictures/video from the internet but rest assured I will get my own shots of this beauty before I'm done here.
