Jenna Marbles messes around with face prosthetics
She look like the grinch’s younger female cousin who lives in the suburbs instead of on a mountain but still definitely hates whos and Christmas and has an aesthetically pleasing Instagram
The Binch!!!!
every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt
he stole christmas, kayla! stop with your #notallgrinches propaganda!
you know what if someone told me i was a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce i’d probably be bitter enough to steal christmas too
Interestingly, though The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is narrated by Boris Karloff, the big musical number is sung by the late Thurl Ravenscroft - an American voice actor better known as the voice of Tony the Tiger.
My headcanon is that the Grinch and Tony the Tiger had a bad breakup, and “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” is the resulting breakup song.
Did this really HAVE to be the first thing I see when I opened up Tumblr?
Yes.
oh god theres art
@altadude you know what must be done.

ive been avoiding reblogging this honestly but just. What the fuck. What the fuck tumblr
a bunch of artists high on escapism and porn. never change, tumblr
the best thing that ever happened to Christmas
The best thing about the book version of the grinch is that he’s just some green fuck that the who’s know nothing about. He has absolutely no backstory he’s just up there being an asshole
The backstory is his heart was too small
SOME SAID THAT HIS HEART WAS TWO SIZES TOO SMALL!!!!! ITS A RUMOR YOU FUCK!!! I WILL FUCKING DESTROY YOU!!!!!
YOU SAW HIS HEART GROW THREE SIZES THIS IS AN OBSERVED FACT
Everything said about the Grinch is hearsay. The story of the Grinh, perhaps, did not happen the way it’s told in the story. I am going to kick your fucking ass. Below is a real excerpt from the book:
The Grinch hated Christmas — the whole Christmas season.
Oh, please don’t ask why, no one quite knows the reason.
It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight.
It could be his head wasn’t screwed on just right.
But I think that the most likely reason of all
May have been that his heart was two sizes too small.
IT COULD BE. I THINK. There is no solid proof that this is why the Grinch is the way he is. It’s A RUMOR. I am going to kick your fucking ass.
It’s really weird but kinda heartwarming that in Japan it’s tradition to have KFC for Christmas dinner? Like Christmas isn’t a big holiday in Japan to begin with but in the 1970s KFC launched this ad campaign about having KFC for Christmas and it just took off and now KFC has Christmas wine and everything and you have to reserve KFC Christmas dinners in advance and it’s so weird but kinda cute?
Christmas cake is also a thing in Japan because it’s thought to be something Americans do and it got started because of American soldiers after WWII and Christian missionaries (at least that’s what I’ve read) but it’s just usually a vanilla and cream cake with strawberries and it always looks so cute and tasty
At least that’s better than fruit cake which I’m convinced has never been edible and if anything it’s a weapon.

On this day, 25 December 1914, 100,000 troops on the Western Front during World War I held an unofficial truce where they refused to fight one another. German troops began singing “Silent Night” in German, French and English, along with other Christmas carols. They decorated the trenches with Christmas trees, lit candles and hung multilingual banners wishing opposing armies “Merry Christmas”. Across much of the front artillery fell silent, British troops joined in the carol singing and both sides began to shout Christmas greetings at one another.
On Christmas Day, soldiers began to climb out of the trenches to fraternise with the other side, bring back bodies from no man’s land and exchange gifts like tobacco, chocolate and alcohol. In several areas there are first-hand accounts of often-improvised football matches being played.
The truce covered about 100,000 men, almost entirely on the Western front however there was also a small truce along part of the Eastern front between Austrian and Russian troops. Fighting continued in some areas.
Henry Williamson, a British private, wrote to his mother on December 26: “In [my] pipe is tobacco. Of course, you say. But wait. In the pipe is German tobacco. Haha, you say, from a prisoner or found in a captured trench. Oh dear, no! From a German soldier. Yes a live German soldier from his own trench. Yesterday the British & Germans met & shook hands in the Ground between the trenches, & exchanged souvenirs, & shook hands. Yes, all day Xmas day, & as I write. Marvellous, isn’t it?”
British authorities were extremely angered by the mutiny, and ordered that soldiers engaged in informal truces be court-martialed.
This looks so wholesome but I’m lacking the context needed to identify why-
Jewish people don’t celebrate Christmas, to them it’s just another day. So they often would want to go out to eat, but a lot of restaurants here in the US close on Christmas. Chinese restaurants are usually open on Christmas though and they usually have a lot of kosher options, making them one of the prime eating out options. So we started going to Chinese restaurants on Christmas out of convenience and it evolved into a tradition :)
