Holiday Interview

[16:11] hobbes8u: Ladies and Gentlemen presenting the Red-headed bird of delight
[16:12] hobbes8u: Becca Meeks
[16:12] hobbes8u: For a holiday interview
[16:12] Becca: squawk.
[16:12] hobbes8u: haha
[16:13] hobbes8u: alright reader’s want to know if you were visiting the North Pole and someone held it up at that moment(like a bank robbery only with toys)How would you save yourself
[16:13] Becca: hmm.
[16:14] Becca: who is holding it up?
[16:14] hobbes8u: Let’s say Kenny Rogers
[16:15] Becca: ohh, that guy. he’s a gas.
[16:15] hobbes8u: Is he?
[16:15] Becca: i always thought he was. with the roasting and all.
[16:15] Becca: umm, anyway.
[16:17] Becca: i would put him on one of the toy conveyor belts and through a hillarious process he would end up looking like a giant nutcracker. and then, he would be put in a box and gift wrapped, and a large sticker would say ” ship to: tim-buc-too”.
[16:18] hobbes8u: So not only do you save yourself you save Christmas. That is soooo like you Becca. What’s your favorite commercialization of Christmas?
[16:18] Becca: give me an example.
[16:18] Becca: are examples allowed?
[16:18] hobbes8u: sure Reese’s Peanut Butter Trees
[16:19] Becca: i prefer peanut butter eggs.
[16:19] hobbes8u: 4am Christmas shopping
[16:19] hobbes8u: things like that
[16:20] Becca: the other day i saw some wrapping paper with grown up jesus on it.
[16:20] Becca: i wanted to wrap something very naughty in it.
[16:20] hobbes8u: spectacular
[16:20] hobbes8u: That’s a perfect example
[16:21] Becca: i’ve been regretting not buying it since i saw it.
[16:21] Becca: but it didn’t fit in with my color scheme. that makes me weird, i think.
[16:21] Becca: not very weird, though.
[16:21] Becca: i’m mostly normal.
[16:22] hobbes8u: Not really. If anyone saw how fantastic the presents looked under your awesome tree they would know what you meant. What’s your favorite Christmas cuss word?
[16:22] Becca: christ.
[16:22] hobbes8u: very very nice
[16:23] Becca: especially when you say it.
[16:23] hobbes8u: Ha ha I can’t help myself. I’m addicted. What’s your favorite childhood present?
[16:23] Becca: christ.
[16:23] Becca: i was afraid you’d ask this.
[16:24] Becca: i think it was a poseable cabbage patch.
[16:24] Becca: her gift certificate said her name was “fanny madge”. but i changed it. to zelda.
[16:25] Becca: she was my one and only cabbage patch.
[16:25] hobbes8u: Zelda is an outstanding name
[16:26] Becca: i had another baby doll that i named samus.
[16:27] hobbes8u: Samus. Interesting. I had an imaginery friend named Cinda.
[16:27] hobbes8u: She left me one day
[16:27] Becca: haha. my nanny had one named “mrs towel”
[16:27] Becca: which never stops being funny to me.
[16:28] Becca: why did she leave?
[16:28] hobbes8u: haha I don’t know
[16:28] Becca: rude.
[16:28] hobbes8u: probably to be with more people her kind
[16:28] hobbes8u: She was pretty sophisticated
[16:28] hobbes8u: way out of my league
[16:29] Becca: she taught you everything you know.
[16:29] hobbes8u: Yet she lived off my sidewalk in my front yard
[16:29] hobbes8u: And her house wasn’t that great
[16:29] Becca: she sounds like a snob.
[16:29] hobbes8u: I guess she was looking back but I sure loved her
[16:30] hobbes8u: Woah we’ve got way off track here
[16:30] Becca: but on an interesting topic.
[16:30] Becca: haha. mrs towel. it kills me.
[16:30] hobbes8u: haha Mrs’ Towel
[16:30] hobbes8u: But really our readers want to know about you.
[16:31] hobbes8u: If you could murder one Christmas figure and never have to hear about it again, who would it be and why?
[16:32] Becca: ummmm.
[16:32] Becca: errr
[16:34] Becca: that is hard, but i suppose it would be one of the reindeer. 9 is pretty excessive.
[16:34] Becca: oh, but then rudolph couldn’t lead the way.
[16:34] Becca: nevermind. it should be symmetrical.
[16:34] hobbes8u: we could pick off two reindeer
[16:34] Becca: oh, okay.
[16:34] hobbes8u: 7 is a good number
[16:34] Becca: yeah, that would work.
[16:34] hobbes8u: which two though
[16:35] hobbes8u: The readers want you to name names
[16:35] Becca: donner and dasher.
[16:36] Becca: honestly, i can’t really think of any christmas figure i want to murder.
[16:36] hobbes8u: For me it would have to be Tiny Tim
[16:36] Becca: that little shit.
[16:36] Becca: always so happy.
[16:36] hobbes8u: Like I would have him die just as the changed Scrooge got there
[16:36] Becca: haha, no. he’s not so bad, once you get to know him.
[16:36] hobbes8u: and then Cratchit would be furious and beat Scrooge up
[16:37] Becca: i think the whole cratchit family would beat his balls.
[16:38] hobbes8u: Wow yeah I can just picture it. “Betsy Crachit, you go for his balls now”
[16:38] hobbes8u: “Yes, daddy”
[16:38] hobbes8u: That’s a great visual
[16:38] Becca: what a sad ending.
[16:39] hobbes8u: sorry I’m twisted
[16:39] Becca: it’s a good thing you are, otherwise this interview would be quite boring.
[16:39] hobbes8u: No you are a delight
[16:39] hobbes8u: Well any last holiday thoughts for the readers?
[16:41] Becca: may your christmas and new year be filled with rum.
[16:41] hobbes8u: You and Jake are so similar
[16:41] hobbes8u: haha
[16:41] Becca: haha, we’re alcoholics.
[16:41] hobbes8u: Thanks for an awesome ineterview
[16:42] Becca: no no. we just love rum.
