OR one could say that a girl not identifying a commercial accoutrement for Hallmark's busy season is in fact an encouraging sign for the true spirit of Christmas.

Sorry, I just vomited a little in my mouth when I typed that whole 'true spirit ..' bit. Moving along.

First rule of anarchy: There are no rules.

Except for that one

It's just as well....even if she knew what it was, it's not like girls these days know how to cook anyhow. It's just as well that they buy cookie dough in the tubes from the grocery store and cut the dough with a knife.

I'm sure she knew what a Christmas tree was, she was probably unfamiliar with cookie cutters. What's the big deal?

it's a sad day for holiday spirit. 🙁

Stop being such a drama queen. I'm sure the child knew all about Santa and all the presents...which is the true meaning of Christmas after all.

Yep, adolescent girls not knowing what cookie cutters are is definitely the last straw. It's all poo-flinging anarchy from here out.

Just how much unidentified poo do you have lying around your house?

So I was perusing the ATOT forums when I saw this random guy post a message about the holiday spirit yet he doesn't know how to clean and cook a goose, nor raise it. He also has to wear mittens when he goes outside because he "gets all chilly" and he gets teared up listening to Dolores O'Riordan and Enya.

It's a sad day for holiday spirit. 🙁
