1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? None – Hippie is green... or really lazy, but uses the green excuse.
2. Real tree or artificial? Ditto.
3. When do you put up the tree? What tree?
4. When do you take the tree down? Ditto.
5. Do you like eggnog? If it comes in a Hoegaarden bottle, tastes like Hoegaarden, and is Hoegaarden, yes.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? Bottle opener with bottle cap attached – my father had clever gift ideas: you give three kids bottle openers, and you’d always find a bottle opener around the house. When done with the kid, you could put a cap on your beer, and then always find beer around the house too. What a novelty for a child; what a brainwave for a drunk.
7. Hardest person to buy for? Everyone – which is why I tend not to buy gifts.
8. Easiest person to buy for? Me – cases of Hoegaarden.
9. Do you have a nativity scene? I could answer this in many ways, but I think a simple “no” would be best!
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Cards are awful, so use the green argument, and don’t bother – phone people you care about, and don’t pretend to care about others.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? A bottle opener – was ahead of its time.
12. Favorite Christmas movie? This sentence is faulty: “Christmas” & “movie” does not work well, let alone with “favourite”.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Boxing Day or pay day.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? No – I’d be too embarrassed to give the stuff I’ve received.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Hoegaarden. And Mrs Hippie.
16. Lights on the tree? If there was a tree, plain white – very German tradition, but very nice (sounds dull, but trust me).
17. Favorite Christmas song? See # 12.
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Travel – all the way to the pub.
21. Open presents Christmas Eve or morning? With bottle openers, I don’t get too excited about opening gifts.
22. Most annoying thing about this time of year? Amateur drunks.
23. Favorite ornament? See # 12 – ornaments are tacky.
24. Favorite Christmas dinner? Anything that involves good company, such as Mrs Hippie.
25. What do you want for Christmas this year? See # 24 above.
26. Who is the most likely to respond to this? No one in their right mind – perhaps amateur drunks.
27. Who is least likely to respond? Who cares?
