DAMN YOU, HAMMACHER SCHLEMMER!

First saw it on The Colbert Report, disbelieved it, had the link passed along from Pretty Little Head for: a rare combination of the festive and fashionable, an inverted Christmas tree — Pre-lit, plus more room for presents at the base of the tree! Yay!


Maybe I'm overreacting, but isn't this like a secular version of the inverted cross? That thing isn't a Tanenbaum. It's a tribute to the Antichrist. Although I must say, it's much more practical than those strange six-foot-and-more inflatable snow globes at the Giant (no pun intended) supermarket in Columbia Heights.


Damn you too, Sky Mall.

P.S. — Maybe I'm just dense, but after reading this I still don't understand what Boxing Day is all about. Is it sort of like Labor Day?
