A totally made up holiday!  Isn't it great? 



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festivus

Airing of Grievances
The celebration of Festivus begins with Airing of Grievances, which takes place immediately after the Festivus dinner has been served. It consists of lashing out at others and the world about how one has been disappointed in the past year. Every household has its own traditions; in one house, the Airing of Grievances consisted of writing the grievances on the fridge in marker.


.....so tell us what your greivence is (nothing serious please):

You want an airing of grievances? Did you SEE that game last night? Did you????

The sun shell or reactionary shell in my GM transmission failed.  A long known and understood problem that GM refused to do anything about in the late 90s, early 2000s.  It cost me $1500 to repair.  Now the CEO wants me to bail them out with my tax dollars.

On the way home from work today, I heard a radio interview of the guy that wrote the Festivus episode.  It was actually something his father came up with for real.  The family celebrated Christmas, but the father thought it would be cool to have their own private holiday also.  Pretty funny.  Also, he said that the proper greeting is "grevious Festivus."  Dan O'Keefe is the father's name, and his son is Daniel.

I got my tongue stuck to the Festivus pole again...

Holy Crap! This is perfect!

I got one whiner here at work who's complaining about his bonus. He whines no matter how much he gets.

I told the boss to cut it 10% before he tells him what it is, and then if he whines, put most of that 10% back on. I thought my boss was gonna wet his pants.

Oh, that bonus? It's more than twice of what the average American family makes in a year.

So, my gripe is this ungrateful, whiny little sniveling brat.

it was to celebrate his first date with his wife if I remember correctly.  The writers of Seinfeld proved over and over again how brilliant they were.  That show will surely be a classic....

I've come to believe that Festivous (holiday for airing grievances) should be after Christmas not before.
