Just Cause I'm A Follower*

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?

Assuming I buy someone a gift...gift bags. Who has time to actually wrap a gift? Give me some tissue paper and a decorative bag and I'm good.

2. Tree, real or fake?

Fake all day. No need for watering or none of that nothing. The minute December 26th hits, I fold that joint up and put it back in the basement.

3. When do you put up the tree?

Don't have one to put up.

4. When do you take the tree down?

Seeing as how I don't have one, I don't. When I lived at home we usually kept it up a little after New Year's.

5. Do you like eggnog?

Hell yeah. I'm an nog snob though. It has to be Southern Comfort with the Vanilla Spice flavoring.

6. Favorite gift received as a child?

I really don't know. I've had a lot of good ones. Got a bike one year (who hasn't)...a robe (with the initials)...all of them have been pretty ok.

7. Do you have a Nativity scene?

Do you mean the one with the five pound, eight ounce tiny Baby Jesus laying in his manger covered in his golden fleece, playing with his Baby Einstein toys learning all his shapes and colors in it?

8. Hardest person to buy for?

I don't do the whole present thing. Ask my friends.

9. Favorite Christmas tradition?

This is gonna sound kinda lame, but just being around the fam. That's all.

10. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?

See final sentence of #6.

11. Mail or email Christmas cards?

You'd think I'd make up for not giving gifts by sending cards right? Nah...gotta stay consistent.

12. Favorite Christmas movie?

Bad Santa...Friday After Next...Home Alone

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?

I don't.

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?

Nah.

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?

I love it all. It would be a disservice to all the food cooked to name just one thing. I'm an equal-opportunity eater (insert dirty joke here).

16. Clear lights or colored lights on a Christmas tree?

We still say colored? What happened to "Negro"? Hell, I'd even take "Afro-American".

17. Favorite Christmas song?

"Santa Claus Is Coming To The Ghetto" by Snoop Dogg. Anything that has Nate Dogg on the hook is a banger. Don't matter what season. He could harmonize the alphabet and niggas would buy it.

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home?

Wherever the family is.

19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer?

Before copying and pasting this survey? Nah. I have eaten reindeer before...true story.

20. Angel on the tree top or a star?

Angel. And it's Black! ***throws up the Black power fist***

21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning?

Morning.

22. Most annoying part of this time of year?

All the holiday music played around the clock. It's like the minute Black Friday hits people cue up the Bing Crosby...old ass Motown Christmas CDs...and every other record label that forced it's artists to do a Christmas CD. Remember "A So-So Def Christmas"? That wack ass Christmas song by TLC...

23. What I love most about Christmas....

Being with the fam.

*and because I wanted La to say bah humbug :)
