I lasted 30 minutes at the holiday party. Ate some bread very carefully, but got really sick of answering "Why aren't you eating?" So, done.
Travers: Perhaps you'll favor us with a demonstration while we're here. Buffy: You mean, like, right now? 'Cause, already had my recommended daily dose of fights tonight.
'Potential'
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

Ann, that's a ferret.
6 Adorable Cat Behaviors With Shockingly Evil Explanations
And for #4 -- just what is wrong with being claimed as a cat's property?
(Not to mention for #6 -- I meow back. When you have multiple cats, it helps to know a few dialects of feline.)
(Edited to add what I'm referring to.)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Can everyone else who wears holiday-themed clothing please stand up so I can look at you funny? Also, please state which holidays you observe sartorially.
Lessee. I have an angel pin (made from recycled metal, natch) that I wear on my wool coat around Xmas. I'm not an angel person, but it resembles the infamous Angel "lobster" logo so it amuses me.
I have Xmas and Chanukkah socks. I have Halloween socks (multiple pairs).
I also have a Yarmaclaus that I got during the whole The OC Chismukkah thing. I usally wear it to decorate the Xmas tree, or sometimes when lighting Chanukkah candles.
Other than that, I will wear green on St. Paddy's Day if I remember.
I own no holiday sweaters, and I don't ever plan to own any.

I wear holiday theme socks on occasion. It's more about liking oddball socks than about any particular holiday. My santa hat was a gimme at a Packer game and only comes out for subsequent X-mas time games.
I also wear a Santa hat as my winter hat for soemtimes the whole week up to Christmas.
I saw a police horse wearing a Santa hat yesterday. Too cute.

Yes, this. I actually own relatively few pairs of socks that don't feature stripes, or skulls, or something. Unlike Seely Booth, I do not wear a belt buckle that says "Cocky."

Oh but you so should.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm pretty sure I don't own any holiday-themed clothing.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have socks with ghosts on them for Halloween. And a Santa hat somewhere. That's it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have one Christmas Sweater (initial caps intended) that my grandmother gave me that I wear to work holiday parties as a conversation piece.
eta: I also have some Halloween themed inside pants.
It's only about 35 in Palo Alto right now, which is just too damn cold.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
I wear a Santa hat occasionally during December, but I can't wear it at the bookstore due to overheating issues (I'm the only one at the register with short sleeves and constantly wiping sweat off my brow with my stack of paper napkins, even when it's 20 below outside). I will put it on top of my register monitor, though, to brighten up my area.
I do have Christmas earrings, which I have to pull out and start wearing tomorrow.

Not to mention for #6 -- I meow back.
Amarna and I will have meowing conversations that last a minute or so. She likes to stand on top of my chest and meow at full blast a few times in a row, so I egg her on by meowing even louder.
