A Festivus for the rest of us - direwolf74 - 12-12-2006

Happy Festivus everybody! I'll get the metal pole out of the crawl space, and we'll all gather around the table for the airing of grievances. I've got a lotta problems with you people!

It is now time for the feats of stength. Festivus is not over until you pin me.

I thought Festivus was on the 23rd of December? The only reason I ask is because I've always taken great pride in sharing a birthday with the fictional holiday. :oops:

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's the 23rd as well...that's the day Kramer asked to have off from the bagel place, and when they refused he went on strike because they infringed on his right to celebrate new holidays.

According to Seinfeld, Festivus is celebrated each year on December 23, but many people celebrate it other times, often in early December. Its slogan is "A Festivus for the rest of us!!" An aluminum pole is generally used in lieu of a Christmas tree or other holiday decoration, shedding holiday materialism. Those attending participate in the "Airing of Grievances" in which each person tells each and everyone else all the ways they've disappointed him/her over the past year, and after a Festivus dinner, the "Feats of Strength" are performed. Traditionally, Festivus is not over until the head of the household is wrestled to the floor and pinned.
