LOL: Post-Christmas Blues

The Grinder is so glad that Christmas is over. That "spirit of good cheer" stuff is fun for a while, but all the gatherings, parties, food, drink and demands on our time (and bank account) can get a little old. (Now, New Year's Eve; that's what we call a good holiday.) But, in case you are feeling bad about the big holiday being over, we Googled the phrase "post-Christmas Blues" to see if we could scrape up some tips to cheer you up. We read this little blog comment when we clicked the first link that came up. Typos included.

"My boyfried in such a Grinch. He rails on and on about all the brainwashing to like Santa and the toys and hoopla is so "Americanata". After 6 years I hust started to scream at him about what a total bummer he is in front of my 2 year old daughter. From that moment on I feel depressed and low. I lost my temper and feel bad. Christmas sucks, he is right!"

See? Now, don't you feel better? Don't you feel blessed to finally be done with all that X-mas noise for another year? Besides, there's always movies to cheer you up. Or things that make fun of movies. The website Worth1000.com has an awesome collection of movie parody posters and we always love to see such fine photoshop skills on display. Like these two.
