DL Holiday Party Committee Assignments

Did all that roadkill fell Gurg?

[quote]Greg always signed up for the centerpieces immediately but he died this past year so there's an opening there.

Those centerpieces were the death of him!

Have we decided on budget?

AlienonMars will cover for Greg.

Department of nutloafs for me. Again.

Don’t worry, I have something special in mind for this year.

I’ll maintain the Book of Stated Boundaries and Allergies.

I’m working on a app!

Nine FRAUS posing for a photo.

Let’s not forget the gluten-free advent calendars debacle from two years ago

For the last time No! We are not doing a play called "One Night in Colorado: Patsy's Magical Christmas" for the children's concert.

Once again my annual plea for open seating. Whoever does the seating chart is a fucking sadist.

I don't know what to wear.

R10 The lesbian tables always have more fun.

I'll bring my signature liver puffs.

Also, my dog died.

every possible surface will be stenciled with spray snow

Lady Nicolas is drawing up the seating chart now!

Will Madge in Payroll bring those awful nut rolls again. They gave half the office the runs last year.

Payroll? Don’t make me laugh.

Is neon animal print obligatory or optional on the night.

Just a reminder Dora-Lee’s brownies last year were a disaster because many in our office community do not like spicy food. I know Dora-Lee is reading. It needs to be said out loud.

One of far left most likely to be future office shooter

There is no “office”. Unless you count that dump where Muriel keeps her gin and Newports.

This is the Datalounge party.

Why do you insist on turning it another office frau thread?

She didn’t say which office

Ha. That picture is from the Doubles club. Every Upper East Side woman of a certain ilk pushes and claws to score an invite to their famed Christmas luncheons. It’s a ridiculous place filled with ridiculous people.

That IS the DL!

R23 Interesting! For an overview, a 2016 article in Town & Country…

From article above. We loved it there! (in 2016)

Interesting is a bit loaded as a word. I prefer “hmmm”

I'll need to start frizzing my ends.

To the lady in green, seated on the left: please do not toss your napkin onto your dirty salad plate again.

[quote] Have we decided on budget?

We need to get a head count.

However, the multi-millionaire DLers who pulled themselves up by their bootstraps will be asked to contribute $500.

The dumb DLers who can't stop ordering Door Dash: $25 each. That's how much you're used to paying, anyway, for a weekday lunch.

I didn't love last year's theme.

Great Greg’s Ghost!

I thought Greg simply took an extended stay…at Cascade.

I’ll bring the one bottle of Asti Spumante to mix in the punch. It’s BYO hip flask of gin as usual.

R31 Then you will be happy to know that soon to be our once again Vairst Letty Melania has graciously agreed to decorate this year. She hear that DL could not stop talking about her previous efforts at the White House.

I'm working security in the front lobby

Ginny in Billing has signed up for her famous 3 bean ‘surprise’. We’ll have to hear her farting all afternoon in her cubicle.

Reminder: Ginny is dead. These callous references to her as still among us are disrespectful to all those who experienced the trauma of her tragic passing.

But Ginny looked so healthy! She's top row second from the left. It was taken before she put on all the weight. As the weight went on, her eye got more and more wonky. Is it true she died from toxic shock syndrome?

I think R39 is referring to the frau that replaced Ginny but none of can be bothered learning her name or calling her anything but Ginny.

Why do I have the feeling someone is going to insist on bringing mac & cheese

I'm getting Mrs. Switzer a male stripper to give her a lap dance.

I'm hoping it kills her like the stripper-gram guy who took out old Sandra in QC.

It's time to bring the chocolate fondue fountain back. It's been 10 years since the original 'incident' and all those connected with it have moved on by now.

Wait—it’s not a catered affair?

For all we do around here, I think we deserve a catered affair.

You must decorate with red Christmas trees.

[quote]It's time to bring the chocolate fondue fountain back. It's been 10 years since the original 'incident' and all those connected with it have moved on by now.

But we can't have a chocolate fountain AND a margarine fountain! It simply IS NOT DONE!

You guys, you guys. Who geeves a fuk about chreezmus?

Who invited Allen from Logistics? Black is just not his color. Or is it Navy?

I really wish we could have the petting zoo again but I understand it's just too soon.

I really want to be on the decorating committee. I have a lot of ideas saved on Pinterest. My glue gun is loaded and ready!

I plan to make my six foot Christmas Croquembouche Tree just like last year. Hopefully, nobody will get food poisoning from bad pastry cream again.

Zachary got really drunk and swore he saw a ghost.

Oh, and glitter. I have some of Martha Stewart’s glitter and flock in all colors

Charlotte, we're Jewish.

I object! That’s not a balanced glitter color palette. I can’t imagine what Martha was thinking.

Besides—have you ever tried to clean up glitter? No thank you.

I'll be the one to take Colin aside privately and tell him the mistletoe hung from his belt buckle isn't funny any more.

I’ll bring the creepy paper.

I'm in charge of the egg salad. Sorry about last year - I promise it will be plugged in this time.

I’m Cheryl and I am taking the afternoon off! My desk is downwind from the bathroom. I hear all of your farts and I smell all of your shit when you insist on keeping the door open after you leave the bathroom to “air it out”. Fuck you! I’m gone.

r49 - did no one tell you we've changed from the margarine fountain to a "butter board?"

You must not have heard, Greg had his cremains turned into weighted glitter balloon bags, one for each table and 5 for the buffet line. He so wanted to be a part of the festivities this year but the Monkey Pox got the best of him.

I will provide the retro vintage wreaths that I make! The one pictured was my first test one and looks shit brown but it is indeed a moss green.

I’ll be happy to over-see the men’s bathrooms and if there aren't enough urinals I’m more than happy to provide an additional portal for the over flow.

If you are missing the steering wheel in your car, see Irene in Billing @ R66.

That’s terrifying. Where’s Steven Cheung?!

If we could just settle on the theme...last year's Bridgerton 50 Load Weekend was fun.

I’m currently throwing handfuls of ✨glitter ✨ in the air, R59. I’m decorating, bitch, not clean up crew!

I’m in charge of beverage napkins

I’m also in charge of guest towel designs.

I'm in charge of sending the email advising all co workers to sign up for the Kris Kringle and an email to follow explaining how Kris Kringle works

R3, its 10$

A co worker has a large size christmas tree at her desk fully deocrated and all . The entire office has gone nuts on decorating this year, even the bathroom doors are fully deocrated. Yuck

I am Schlmoe Klein and upset the Jews aren't included.

If the Jews aren’t included, why is it a Holiday Party and not a Christmas Party?

Will the Log Cabin Republicans show? Are they invited?

Somers Farkas here. I'll bring a several dozen Martha Stewart Ribbon Candy pillar candles.

Muriel here. I’ll be needing an accommodation for my refurbished Rascal scooter. Sounds like you all have every base covered. I’ll grace this gathering with my presence. Those in arrears on DL dues: I’ll be accepting cash.

Itty bitty titty committee

Muriel always promises an appearance, but never shows up. I think we know why.

R85 - not itty bitty titty committee

Santa without his red suit.

Don’t forget the trans friends.

I know it's really Christmas when I smell that sterno.

I’m in charge of the toilet paper

We had a bumper year and our shareholders are very happy. To thank you, our greatest asset, and show you how appreciated you are, we are catering two slices of pizza for each attendee rather than the usual one.

Can I get two packets of fake Parmesan, too? Please sir, may I have some more?
