Reality Check by Dave Whamond for December 18, 2024

You light up my life.

Today’s comic should be printed on the lid of one of those boxes designed to store lights.

Just plug them in and be done with it.

I store mine on leftover wire spools. They’ll hold 150 to 200 feet of lights if you find the right ones. Put a stick through the center hole and unwind your lights as you need them to put them up. That, plus a “light stick” (a long stick with a finish nail stuck in it) and you don’t even have to climb ladders to reach the nails or hooks that you left up from the season before.

Oh this is bad! Santa’s losing it… he’s talking to a string of lights!

I just know he’s gonna forget my Easy Bak…. I mean my G.I. Joe action figure!

Knot now Santa.

Throw them at the tree tree and plug them in.

just went through this with the lights…

It reminds me of the angry guy, from the paradody song, “The 12 pains of Christmas”, that is trying to rig up the lights. “One goes out, they all go out”! and, “Somebody get a flashlight, I blew a fuse”!

Santa, get an aluminum tree and a colored wheel so no lights to un~knot and more time to relax and eat cookies….☺️❤️

If it were up to me the lights would stay tangled up in the basement. Bah Humbug.
