| Pigdog Christmas Wish Lists -- Compiled 1998-12-25 12:03 by Mr. Bad | |

We realize it's getting a little late in the game for you to get presents for the Pigdog Journal staff like you really should. But some of us are a little disappointed with this year's take and we thought we'd give the Fat Man one more chance to come through with the goods. And, no, we don't mean J.L. McCabe. So, without further ado, here are the Pigdog Journal staff Christmas gift wish lists. ICBINJ:
Master Squid:
Mr. Bad:
Chachi:
[ED. NOTE: Chachi doesn't think very big.] MAJ:
Tjames:
Meg:
Meg adds: "...and a happy holiday to y'all." Kiss-ass! Abby says: "Okay, [Fat Man], here's a short, bitter list for your files. Stop whining. You didn't say they had to be *nice* lists... or particularly funny, for that matter. "All I want for Christmas..."
Last and not least, El Destino:
That's about it, for now. All gifts should be sent postage paid with adequate wrappings and receipts included so we can cash 'em in if we decide we don't want them after all. Oh, and to all staffers who didn't send in a list: you're FUCKED. You don't get anything. And the rest of us don't have to share our loot with you, either. So there! Meli Kalikimaka. |

Ah, it's that special time of year again. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, crowded, dangerous streets filled with maniac shoppers rushing to the mall to buy Pokemon action figures, and getting hammered at the Xmas party and insulting the boss's hair weave. That's right: it's time to drink heavily and wait out life's little nagging miseries, holiday variety. Pigdog is here to help. (More...)
