[It isn't often Scratch opts for anything but text. White texting people is always funny. But, he does want to ask something important enough to warrant the lack of it.

Good day New Moore residents. I have an inquiry to make. As an alien who does not come from Earth and only understands the minimal requirement about humans and their culture for my work, it seems that this month a very popular holiday called "Christmas" is approaching.

I don't celebrate Christmas and the closest equivalent to it in my universe is called "12th Perigees Eve", which is celebrated differently among the class lines. I don't celebrate that either.

However from my understanding, part of the Christmas tradition for you humans is to wear horrible unflattering sweaters. The kind with an awful tacky design on it, terrible colors and is simply horrendous to look at.

I find it curious as to why such a tradition takes place at all. That said, I want to learn first hand about the bizarre human emotion you all refer to as "the spirit of Christmas".

Shortly put, my question is:








Which of these two is tackier, in your opinion? Please make note that the first is a sweater vest and the second has glowing lights installed in it.

[Apologies to unfortunate roommate Scott McCall who has to deal with seeing these atrocities the most of anyone, because Scratch is definitely going to wear at least one.]

Wear the sweatervest over the sweater if you want to be really really tacky, jawbreaker guy. That'll be spirited!

Okay do the blinky sweater then! The lights will reflect off your head.

[personal profile] dontmccallmyname 2012-12-21 12:26 am (UTC)(link)
I think the lights might take the second one from tacky to kind of awesome?
dontmccallmyname: (you catch a glimpse of gold)

[personal profile] dontmccallmyname 2012-12-21 08:21 am (UTC)(link)
It lights up. It's like you're wearing a Christmas tree.
dontmccallmyname: (they are my army of fortune)

[personal profile] dontmccallmyname 2012-12-21 08:21 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, are we getting a Christmas tree, or are you really just in it for the sweaters?
dontmccallmyname: (they're like diamonds)

[personal profile] dontmccallmyname 2012-12-21 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I think we have different definitions of awesome. Where'd you get it, anyway? I kind of want to...I mean, not for me, but I think I know someone who might appreciate it.
