Old School Christmas Movies

I think we’ve all seen the recurring memes about Die Hard being a Christmas movie. And this year, I’m seeing a lot of them adding Lethal Weapon to the Christmas Movie list. I get a kick out this. But, let’s never forget the original Christmas movie, Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence. 😉

Oh yes, long ago, Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence used to be shown by one or more of our local affiliates every year around Christmas. I mean, it really wasn’t the Christmas season until David Bowie (Maj. Celliers) is buried to the neck under the Javan sun. 😆

Mamdani’s Favorite App

Mamdani’s Favorite App

Jihotties – Mamdani’s favorite app, though I don’t think it met its sow, Rana through it. Hellfire! This raghead filth will probably manage to coerce the NYC government to invest in Jihotties development. 🙄

Cyber Monday Haul

A Good Cyber Monday Haul

Yeah, Cyber Monday is better or, at least, safer and less crazy, than Black Friday. Still though, I think we’d be better off stocking up on Geeky or Nerdy girls than a bunch of overpriced then-reduced stuff.

Black Friday Shopping

Better, Wiser Black Friday Shopping

Well, it’s Black Friday again, that day of mercantile madness, violence, and performative stupidity. We here at Reflections From A Murky Pond prefer to “shop” differently, though. Insofar as we’re concerned, it’s better to get a Black babe – I started my day in one 😉 – than to join in with the annual paroxysm of consumerism.

Mino-Miigwechwigiizhigad

Mino-Miigwechwigiizhigad, which is an Ojibwe phrase that is often used as “Happy Thanksgiving” among the Northeastern Amerindian tribes. And yes, for the scholars out there, I could have instead used, “Ohèn:ton Karihwatéhkwen,” which is the Kanien’kéha (Mohawk dialect of the Haudenosaunee language group) phrase for “Thanksgiving Address.” However, the Ohèn:ton Karihwatéhkwen isn’t related to the American Thanksgiving holiday and is or was used quite often at the beginning of meetings throughout the year.

But, in that vein, I will give thanks to the Creator for the things that go about on the earth, especially the native beauties that do so. 😉
