I tried to start a fight with a guy once for sitting down next to me and playing a didgeridoo fart stick. I still feel that this is the appropriate response.

"Colored" lights are only acceptable if you are white trash or gay.

colored lights are NEVER acceptable on a tree. Unless it's outside, and even then it can NEVER have ornaments on it.

@ 2 & 3,

Kiss my butt! My x-mas tree is as gaudy as I want it to be!

say to to coloreds.

or, no rather.

lord.

Fuck all y'all talking shit about colored lights on trees. I suppose you prefer fake trees as well, you uptight heathens? Trees with white lights always make me think the person who put it up spent too much time gawking at the Macy's windows for ideas.

Real tree and colored lights all the way! (I might be a little intense since I just finally put my tree up tonight, complete with colored lights and balls.) (And half a bottle of champagne to aid in creativity.)

Our tree is real and our lights are blue LEDs. We've not mixed other coloreds or whites with them.

LEDs are Satan's illumination.

Paulus speaks the truth. Say "nay" to LEDs.

And white lights are only OK on silver trees. Green trees demand multi-colored lights. Though I must complain that the colors available are not as sweet as they were when I was a boy; the reds and blues are off somehow, not pure but tinted, and tainted. I blame the rage for faux "Victorian Christmas", which has replaced the jolly cartoon red Santa with horrible burgundy velvet and lace. The real Christmas comes in primary colors.

Brave Republican Troll is on a smear campaign against Dan Savage today. He doesn't care about the children dying in Iraq. All he cares about is the fact that Savage supported the war at some point in the past.

My disgust cannot be overstated. When all you care about is smearing people who disagree with you while overlooking the suffering and death we are causing - and even supporting it - you are a lousy human being.

My apologies for the repeat posting. I'm hunting Troll. Big, fat, blubbering Republican Troll.

I had a similar interaction yesterday with my sister. While discussing christmas tree lights in a small local department store, I said, "I prefer whites. They're just classier than colored." But I was in Eastern Washington, so the comment probably didn't raise any eyebrows.
