Yeah, it's unusual for a photo of your beer delivery guy to make it on the family Christmas card, but it's been an unusual year.

2020 brings a whole new meaning to that part in It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas that goes "and Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again."

Zoom office holiday party tomorrow.

I wonder how Janice from Accounting will get drunk and show us her secret tattoo that she’s “never, ever shown anyone,” like she does every year?

i’m back to the old yearnings from the beginning of the pandemic where I’d pay $900 to flirt under some christmas lights at a bar that smells weird

Not for nothing but Mariah Carey could become even more of a legend this season if she did a new version of her holiday classic called "All I Want for Christmas Is You (To Not Spread COVID to Your Loved Ones)"

What’s another way of saying “The best thing about the pandemic is not having to see any of you losers?” I really want this Christmas letter to pop.

I miss not being able to lie about why I can’t go to your Christmas party.

My family has decided that for Christmas dinner we're having dino nuggets and pizza.
Because if 2020 has taught us anything, it's how good it feels to say, "fu*k it" and just do what makes us happy.

Someone on Hinge just msgd me, “Hi! Any holiday travel plans?” Dude, read the pandemic!

This year I won't be sending out Christmas cards.

I'll tell you it's because of infection risk or whatever, but honestly I just can't be bothered.

One of my kids ate all of the chocolate in his advent calendar on December 1 and given how unpredictable this year has been, I totally get why he’d want to secure some guaranteed joy up front.

What will I miss most about Christmas this year? Slowly descending to the floor on a leaking air mattress while a collection of nutcrackers stares at me, open-mouthed.

Me, pre-COVID: You’re too old to be going into your attic, Mom.

Me, post-COVID: You’re on a ladder on the roof fixing Christmas lights in the snow? Good for you for staying home and keeping yourself busy.

Nearby town holding their Christmas parade during a pandemic because “there was a lot of community support” is like giving your toddler candy for dinner “because they really, really wanted it.”

The silver lining on my covid Christmas is that it's not safe to see any of my wonderful loving family, so I don't get any of their weird catholic guilt either. It's a trade I can make just this once.

At first I was worried my kids would see all the Amazon packages arriving with their gifts since they’re home all the time.

Then I laughed and realized they never look up from their devices.

We just took our holiday card pic at home. It’s later than usual. Actually, usually, we have tons of photos to choose from with all the fun things we’ve done and outings and trips throughout the year, but The Covid wasn’t tryna hear it. *deep sigh*

Looking forward to Hallmark’s holiday offering “A Very COVID Christmas,” when a big city lawyer and a country candle maker accidentally meet when they go to the wrong zoom meeting.

The Nutcracker is weird. A Christmas Carol is weird. Frosty the Snowman is weird. In 2020 let’s take a beat and come up with less weird and unpleasant holiday traditions moving forward

Hmm...COVID started spreading right after Christmas last year. What if it turns out the culprit all along was Elf on a Shelf?
