Maybe a Christmas edition of Monopoly (TM)(C)(R)(Ect.) will solve this national crisis.

Ugh. This strip makes me sick...

That's probably the point though.

A sad but true point about the world these days, especially in the modern countries, where Christmas, Hanukkah, and all the other holidays have virtually lost all meaning in the name of commercialism.

I think that's the point.

Commercialism killed the spirituality star.

Doesn't have the same kind of ring to it and messes up the rhythm.

Heh, I gotta say, that's one of the cutest poses I've seen Millie in in awhile. ^^

I feel her pain. And technically, I'm one of the bad guys.

I basically only buy gifts for those very close to me; everyone else gets a card. I work at a department store for those who don't know, and I was on cash today. I had one guy buy $400 CAD of toys for his 4 YEAR OLD SON!!! Makes me sick...

I agree with Mista_B, Millie is very cute in this one.
