'Twas the Night Before Christmas --- my parody of the classic


My parody of the classic poem with 17 large pictures. Warning: Crude humor

View them using the cut below, or by visiting my gallery.



'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the flat
All us Slobbes were a-stirrin', except for our womrat.



The stockings were hung at the mantle with --- surprise! --- care,
But they were well-worn and grimy and fouled up the air.



The kiddies were raiding the kitchen for food
Stuffing their faces and up to no good.



Me and the missus were breaking the bed
Woohooing as if we were still newlyweds.



From out of the silence there came a great roar
It ruined the mood, so I cursed and I swore.



I ran out the door wearing only my briefs
More than ready to hand out a whole lotta grief.



My nuts felt like ice cubes but I didn't care
The sight was so curious, I just had to stare.



'Twas a snazzy red car pulled by eight metal deer
With Ol' Nick in the driver's seat grinding the gears.



With a laugh and a wink he leapt out of the car
The first words he uttered were "Do you have a bar?"



I replied, "Yes indeed, my jolly old friend."
Come inside for a glass of some Slobbe's Special Blend."



So we plied him with brew and with cookies galore...



'Till he passed out abruptly and started to snore.



Then we heard a low rumbling, and when it was through,
Poor Nick bolted upright and dashed for the loo.



Nick's pants hit the floor then he groaned and sat down,
And out of the bathroom came agonized sounds.



He spent half the night with the porcelain god,
While we smustled away to our brand new iPod.



He concluded his chore with a sigh and a flush,
Then ran back to his car through the snow and the slush.



"Go to hell!" He exclaimed, as he drove out of sight.
"You'll get nothing but coal from me, after this night."

lol You can find the Major Award at:

The gingerbread cookies come with the Holiday Edition (I have the one from last year plus this year's mini-pack but you don't need the mini-pack to get the cookies). It shows up in your sims's cooking options. :)

No problemo!

Re cookies --- I'm not sure what level cooking skill your sim needs to be, but I think the game gives it to them pretty early on. Watch out for the real Santa though --- he usually shows up a few hours after they're done. I usually have my sims make them at around 6 or 7 pm so that Santa shows up before midnight. :D

Go buy another one and as SOON as you get back home it's looking you dead in the face. Yep. . . That would be me.

I do love that voice but the "call me as soon as you get this" message wasn't really inspiring. His little daughter was very sick.

Huge thanks for reading and enjoying the piece! lol I'd almost forgotten that Maxis gave us those tight briefs. As soon as I saw them, I knew Mr. Slobbe would really appreciate them. ;)

LOL! This was very funny. Is that really what the wormrat looks like dead? Santa's a bit of a grouch. I guess I would too if I got the "Slobbe's Special Blend" ^_~

Thanks for reading and enjoying the parody! :) And yep, that's the way the poor womrat ends up, poor thing. When the pic was taken, it hadn't yet begun to give off noxious green fumes but after several hours --- whooo boy. ;)
