DL Holiday Mascot Liberation

I always thought the DL Holiday Mascot should be wearing a Caftan.

There’s more than one, R1.

Mascots.

Would this mascot be a moose?

The Christmas Mouse died? My God, when?

The Christmas Moose will have a message later. He’s in his Zumba class now and left a message not to be disturbed.

“Zumba class” = forced labor for mere peanuts

Will this include neighbor Joel?

With the warmer weather, The Christmas Moose and I were up on the roof deck last night, listening to jazz and dancing up a storm, and inviting the hot neighbors to join us.

He was back at the Stone Zoo in Stoneham this morning after Jazz Night. There are pair of new snow leopards that need a ball of yarn, if anyone has one or two handy.

Gizelle the Gazelle is doing much better on a new SSRI, but pines for the love of the Christmas Moose, requited. It’s hopeless. Javier tbe Jaguar has an assess tooth.

Most everybody else is doing will so go visit and don’t forget to bring peanuts for Mother Moose.

Incidentally, Harry & David sells a product called “Moose Munch” which is a perfect gift for the moose in your life. You can send care of the Christmas Moose at the Stoneham Zoo in Stoneham, MA. No zip required , the post office knows him there.

Fuck you, OP.

I thought it was the Stone Zoo not the Stoneham Zoo. Do we have a fake FOCM?

It is indeed, R12. Too much bourbon last night.

You probably deprived the Thanksgiving Otter of that bourbon.

I was going to suggest an Election Day Chupacabra, but well - look how that turned out.

The thanksgiving otter swears too much. The Christmas Moose doesn’t like that

I can’t find any other thread that might be appropriate, so here goes...

I’m having family here next week and the best ferry tour of Boston Harbour Islands starts for the year, on the next day after their visit! Yes, the next day.

The deCordova museum and sculpture park is also closed for the day.

The Harvard Museums are all closed.

This is a Monday, but not a holiday.

Even squeezing-in the newly refurbished Cathedral is tricky. It recently replaced the wood floors with marble after being closed for a year. The exterior has been scrubbed to the top and looks beautiful. You should have seen those nuns on the scaffolding!

And it’s gonna rain.

But the zoo is open, and the CM says he’ll give me a discount.

Do you pay the zoo entrance fee in peanuts or bitcoin?

Despite this claim of friendship, the FOCM referring to the Christmas Moose as “my moose” is unseemly and gross. It’s immoral in my view. Apply Kant’s categorical imperative: would you want ownership of sentient beings to be a universal law? I hope not.

Well, [italic] my friend, [/italic] I cough on Immanuel Kant.

R18, I have to pay in these 17th century Spanish coins because they are all I have. They take them.

In 2005 the zoo was $5. Now it’s $25 because of the CM. Even the elderly discount just reduces it to $23. That’s a $2 discount for a hundred year old! Graft in Boston? Could it be possible?

If it rains, I’m thinking of spending the whole day in the Cathedral. Do you think that will fly? I know it will break the CM’s heart, but he understands rain.

FOCM, are you saying the Moose is responsible for fare increases since 2005? I thought he was only four or five years old?

[quote] Do you think that will fly?

Can moose fly? Of course it will fly.

Thank you, R21.

Yes, he’s four years old, every year on Christmas Day, but refuses to say when he was born. Mother Moose, too. They’re vain, I think. Moosifer might tell, but I don’t like speaking with him. He bites!

I’m wondering if it will fly with my siblings? They’re not Church goers, much. Meaning ever.

Given the potential cathedral visit, are you Catholic or Episcopalian, FOCM? I suspect the latter given your proud Yankee roots.

Someone on this thread is a big Kant.

The hanukkah hamster isn't in a concentration camp, silly! He's holidaying with Richard Gere in Nepal.

Don't forget us Emotional Support Animals too!

[quote] The hanukkah hamster isn't in a concentration camp, silly! He's holidaying with Richard Gere in Nepal.

The Hanukkah Hamster is a Buddhist? Mind blown.

I'm here, representin'. And not just a day in September, either.

I got out of it completely. The family cancelled because of the inclement weather. I don’t blame them. They threaten a visit in June, but probably June 2030, the way they are.

Is the Bi Visibility Day Blobfish actually bisexual?

[quote] R23: Given the potential cathedral visit, are you Catholic or Episcopalian, FOCM? I suspect the latter given your proud Yankee roots.

R23, firstly, my siblings, are tourists in Boston, so I’m showing them pretty things before they burn to the ground. Our Cathedral is bigger then New York's! Take that, New York! It was just gussied-up, as I just described to family:

[quote] Boston’s Cathedral was recently closed and gutted on the inside and rebuilt, with marble floors, replacing the wood floors, etc. It was closed for a year for the project! The entire exterior was also hand scrubbed, and I honestly thought it was too dangerous for those nuns to have been wearing their habits up on the scaffolding, but the Biship said it was fine, and it all worked out. It’s beautiful, now.

Secondly, yes, I’m a Catholic. I met Moosie at vespers. Don’t shoot, you asked!

The Christmas Moose is fine R5. He sends his love.

Miss Sissy Boodles is the ultimate DL mascot and she has ensembles for every holiday.

“Ensembles” is a legitimate verb?

Oh, R33, what type of animal is Miss Sissy Boodles?

The Kwanzaa Ferret is still relaxing in his living room with John Coltrane playing in the background and a slice of Sandra Lee’s Kwanzaa cake by his side.

Here’s a hint R35. She plays with yarn and chases mice and occasionally boxes shadows.

Contrary to popular opinion, she is not in the legitimate theater.

In keeping with my question regarding the Bi Visibility Day Blobfish, is the Kwanzaa Ferret black?

R5, The Christmas Mouse is [italic] missing, [/italic] only. Where are all the good DataLounge sleuths? There’s been no body found, so it’s an open case.

Miss Sissy Boodles knows where the Christmas Mouse is, but her lips are sealed.

He’s dead, son. Accept it.

What type of cat is Miss Sissy Boodles?

Let’s just say that Miss Sissy Boodles though delightful, does not have a pedigree.

The Bi Visibility Day Blobfish is bisexual. The Black History Month Bivalve is lesbian.

So, R44, is the Kwanzaa Ferret black?

I just found out only now, that the Christmas Moose’s movie [italic] finally [/italic] came out last December. Sorry that it’s June! Maybe he’ll have a new movie for 2019. Whatev, as the CM says.

I'm feelin' suicidal y'all
