The Airing of the Grievances has begun in my neighborhood.
You can take your stockings hung by the chimney with care, and your halls decked with boughs of holly, and shove em where the sun don't shine. To me, nothing symbolizes the beginning of the holiday season more than a public message board where twentysomething hipsters complain about Republicans and suburbanites.

We began our Festivus celebrations in the office last week. In the spirit of the Olympics, we had a Festivus Pole relay down the aisles between the cubes, as well as the Airing of the Grievances. It was good times and the grievances continue to be aired.

It's made from aluminum. Very high strength-to-weight ratio.
Seek medical attention if this lasts more than 4 hours.

That's a horrible video package.There's a house in Arlington that has a festivus pole up in the front yard. And to make sure people know it's a festivus pole, and not an unused flagpole, there's a sign that says "Happy Festivus"

I wish to air a grievance.
People who aren't handicapped should not be using the handicapped button that automatically open doors, especially if the door either (1) opens to a bathroom from a public area or (2) opens to the outdoors and its cold outside. Nobody wants that door to be open for thirty seconds, you putz.

My grievance:
The Christmas letter.
Send me a card. I don't need to know about your cousin's wedding in September.
Okay, now on to some heavy lifting.

Kruger (to Frank Costanza): "I find your system of values fascinating".
George (talking to Kruger in explaining the Human Fund): I don't celebrate Xmas and I was persecuted for my beliefs. I celebrate Festivus........
Kruger: Are you making this up?
George: Oh no......it's all too real. I can prove it to you.....if I have to.
Kruger; Yeah, you might have to.

What if the door is heavy and the person is weak? Do you offer to open the door for them in that case? Just wondering what the play is there.

Hey, a blast from the past!
Any person who is too weak to open a particular door could be considered "handicapped' for purposes of this grievance.
Thanks for the reminder- I need to get to work on this year's grievances.

Happy Festivus everyone!!!!!!
Frank: And now as Festivus rolls on, we come to the feats of strength.
George: Not the feats of strength..
Frank: This year, the honor goes to Mr. Kramer.
Kramer: Uh-oh. Oh, gee, Frank, I'm sorry. I gotta go. I have to work a double shift at H&H.

Mine this year: People who say that Die Hard is their favorite Christmas movie.
Why do they feel the need to undermine the obvious intent of the question? I could maybe understand doing it five years ago to show how you're totally clever and well-versed in pop culture because you remember that this famous and beloved movie took place during the Xmas season. But now that lots of people have pointed this out, what purpose are you serving by dodging an innocent question? None. You're a hundred times worse than Hitler, every one of you.

I have to add a second grievance: the Christmas Eve sports schedule.
I don't get this at all. This is a day where very few people are at work. Many people are home with their families getting bored and desperately seeking distractions. It's not technically a holiday, like say for example Christmas and Thanksgiving, both of which we fill with all day sports marathons starting at noon anyway. Three of our four major sports are still in action, including both the college and pro levels of basketball and football. December and April are our two busiest sports months.
And yet it is literally the worst sports day of the year every single year. Tomorrow we get two mediocre at best college games and that's it. #### that. Give me a second outdoor hockey game (I know they have an Xmas break in their CBA but they can work around it for a special event), or a Peach/Gator Bowl type game, or a TNT doubleheader featuring two teams not on the Xmas day slate. Something better than Middle Tennessee v Western Michigan and San Diego State v Cincinnati, for Christ's sake (pun intended).
