A few Holiday Memories, December 5th Edition

Lets just start off this day with a couple of short rants - and the above video explains much. Ho Ho Ho.

1. Advertising agency TBWA is clearly insane - I've met some of these people, they roll hard. But seriously it's holiday party season and this video is a good indicator of what is basically going on. But did anyone but me try to find a cab this weekend? Holy crap. Did the snowfall or water spore scare wipe out like 1/2 the cities cabs or what? Friday night was ridiculous, as was Saturday. I hate you Vancouver cabs. You are useless. [via Consumerist]

2. But when the cabs failed on Saturday, and slummed it briefly on a bus - worst. idea. ever. - down Hastings St. (Don't ask) something magical happened. Miracle on 34th Street? There was an amazing guy with a crazy mullet hair cut wearing the most incredible bad assed He-Man "Masters of the Universe" satin jacket in the whole lower mainland. It looked like this one. Mullet + He Man Jacket = Amazingness. And here are 14 Life Lessons from He-man. I bet that Jacket wearing dude lives his life by these rules.

3. As we know well, Granville Street is kind of a crazy mess on Friday/Saturday nights. But thank goodness they are cracking down on those cute girls who take drinks out of bars in their purses and drink them on the street. You know who you are especially the ones who break them on Nelson St. As i was finally getting a cab for a couple of friends I saw another friend in front of Ginger 62 getting a ticket from the cops for drinking on the street. It was quite amazing. The cops clearly were enjoying the holiday spirit of ticketing a birthday girl. And why shouldn't they, it was hilarious.

4. Stop talking. Watch the Sin Destroyers' - the world's Christianest Rock Band - music video about Jesus saving Christmas or blowing it up. Either way this is perfect, and full of really fantastic beards.

5. Christmas Season 2006 is already ripe with just plain excellent gossip. This morning Gawker has the best three blind items, like ever. Particularly this part in particular: "WHICH hard-partying Hollywood starlet has club cocktail waitresses fueling rumors of rehab by whispering that the actress cuts her coke with strawberry Quik?" It's a Christmas miracle people, thank you baby Jesus.
