Christmas Vacation. The whole family gets together every Christmas Eve to watch it. And when Santa shimmies his fat ass down the chimney, he’s going to find the jolliest bunch of azzholes this side of the nuthouse.

A Christmas Story is our family favorite, even as it has been played continuously around Christmas for the last several years. I first saw it back in the early ‘80’s when we got Showtime. We all roared and still do even though we know all the lines by heart. Ralphie’s school days (minus the snow) were very similar to mine. Nowadays, my kids compare me to the dad, especially the bit about profanity being my true medium and how I work with it like other artists work in oils.

I never got a Red Ryder for Christmas, but when I was 10 my granddaddy swapped one of his pals for a Crossman pellet rifle (CO2 powered) and gave it to me around Christmas. I got to take it squirrel hunting and bagged one with a head shot. I joined the fraternity that day and haven’t looked back, so I know how Ralphie felt. Lot of close-to-life memories along with a lot of laughs.

I guess Silent Night Deadly Night would be a close second.

Mine is Christmas Vacation and the wife’s is a Christmas Story. We watch Christmas Vacation Thanksgiving night to kick off the season and Christmas Story on Christmas Eve before the kids go to bed.

Also get a lot of Home Alone with my oldest.

anyone ever seen Mixed Nuts? Streaming on the Roku channel for free. Nothing like seeing Liev Schreiber as a tranny for Christmas

The wife and I have the Christmas Story playing from when TBS starts it at 8pm on Christmas Eve til 8pm on Christmas on at least one TV in the house (something she used to do with her sisters). Then Christmas night it's Bad Santa. Christmas Vacation is played through out the month of December.
