Crappiest/Tackiest X-mas tree EVAR!

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

So my son asked me "hey, can we have a christmas tree this year?" to which I replied "Well, where would we put it and what kind of cat toys should I put on it?"
He grunted and gave me a funny look. I haven't put up a tree in four or five years and it's been even longer for Mr Squid so this was about the best we could do on a whim.

The topper is kind of traditional, like it or not for previous Mr's. Jack Skelington. But there's also a peacock. Cause god damn it, I like em---



Then I got him an ornament with a clarinet since that's what he plays--


Did I mention the fucking YODA LIGHTS??? They're so tacky I could punch myself---


And here's the piece of shit in all it's glory. ENJOY SON!

(sorry if it's sideways but both photobucket and my photo program thing are fucking retarded and I'm too lazy to try to fix it properly. So just tilt your head if need be)

What a piece of shit! Merry Christmas!!

I LOVE IT!!!

I grew up around a crazy very ritually tacky tree, so I endorse this.

[Captain Utopia]

Woah, that's awesome, I love it! I've become really bored with all of the modern/minimalist pure-white-lights-and-all-natural-material christmas decor. Gaudy rules.

[Freeky]

What are you talking about? Those yoda lights kick ass!

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

That's awesome!

I have to get a tree. Dammit.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Gaudy IS Christmas.

thats not as tacky as my cousins tree always is
they always go for the most deformed tree they can find, cover it in macaroni art, glitter, pickles, toy lobsters, other nonsense, and top it
with a stuffed beaver dressed as the Tooth Fairy or something  its awesome

[Fredfredly ⊂(◉‿◉)つ]

also when we used to do a tree my mother put chili pepper lights and covered wagons on it 

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

sounds awesome

OH also, where did you get yoda lights?
i want some!

[Dysnomia]

yoda lights are amazing!

we got our tree right after thanksgiving this year.  Not because we want to, but because the rest of the bastards in the area will cut them all down before we get there.

OH also, where did you get yoda lights?
i want some!

Target!

The kids are forcing the tree issue on me this year and all my well meaning friends are giving me their left over ornaments.  If it makes the kiddies happy......  I can suffer through it.....

I LOVE the Yoda lights....  I will have to take a trip and see what I can find.  Right now the tree will have multi colored jack-o-lanterns on it 'cause those are the only lights I have and I really don't want to buy any!

I will have a Christmas tree up every year until I am physically unable to do so. I take pride in my tackiness and the ornaments passed down through generations of tackdom:




PD.Com, I'd like to take this moment to introduce you to The Tack™.

The Tack™ is one of a trilogy of these horrific ornaments bestowed upon myself and my siblings when we were younger by an aging aunt. Despite their horrific appearance, we made sure that all 3 of them had a home in the back of our Christmas tree while growing up.

The current fate of The Tack™ is in jeopardy. Upon leaving Florida for Rhode Island in 2001, my brother sacrificed his Tack™ by hanging it from the sliding glass door at our old house after selling it shortly after Christmas, leaving it there for the next unsuspecting victim. Christmas of 2005, during my engagement to Herbert, I was bestowed with my Tack™, which is seen in the pictures above on Christmas 2006 while my sister was still living with us. My sister's Tack™ is the one still in possession of my parents.

But now, due to the terms of the divorce, Herbert believes that he has the rights to The Tack™ and the powers it holds. I refuse to let such things happen. It is on the list of my coveted ornaments which includes my fairy tree topper, Tampa Bay Buccaneers ball, and ceramic Jabba the Hutt.  My ornaments must be re-tree-ved before I depart for Florida next week so that the family can bask in their glittery glory.

THE TACK™ MUST BE SAVED!

I wanted to get the Yoda lights, but my wee li'l tree is too small for them.

One of my friends, however, has a rancor as his tree topper, and several taco ornaments.
