A Macy’s Day Parade on Every Rooftop…..

December 7th, 2004 by Mad Mardigan · 3 Comments

What is the deal with those gigantic inflatable holiday decorations that people are putting on their roofs these days? As I drive around town I have seen:

1.) A house with a giant Santa in a fishing boat in the front yard, with a reindeer on the end his line.

2.) A house with a 10 foot oddcouple duo of the Grinch and Santa.

3.) And best of all, a house with a 15 foot Homer Simspon in a Santa outfit, once again on the roof for all to see.

I mean, come on. Is there a better way to say to the world that I have no class, and I have a small penis, then to have a 15 foot inflatable Homer on your roof? If there is, I can’t think of it. If anybody has one of these, please explain to me the thought process here, I just don’t get it. And by the way, my county has a serious meth problem. Coincidence? I think not. The bottom line is, there are a thousand better ways to spread holiday cheer then to erect a mammoth illuminescent condom on ones roof.

    can’t help you there. my idea of christmas decorating is those little electric candles in the windows with white bulbs, if i even feel like that. then again, i take my “my personal opinions are none of the rest of the world’s business” quite to an extreme since i may have been the only person who didn’t ever hang out an american flag after 9/11.

    i say you go to wal-mart (yes i know, not your favorite place) and conduct an exit poll of people buying those pieces of crap. hell, ask them why they shop at wal-mart at all. and report back please.

    LMAO I haven’t had the pleasure of seeing a huge homer simpson dressed up like santa on a roof in my area. Thank God! I’m so sorry! I like the other posters idea of taking an exit poll at Walmart about it though.

    There’s a weird almost-tradition here in Lancaster (UK). Every year, someone puts an inflatable/illuminated Homer on his/her (no, I think it does have to be ‘his’) roof. Someone steals it. The local paper reports the theft. The following week’s letters page is full of people mocking such decorations and hoping Homer is found in the river.

    I wouldn’t be entirely surprised if the paper runs exactly the same story each year ;)
