I do want one of those candle headdress thingies. But knowing me, I'd forget I was wearing it and go to bed with it on, and light the whole house on fire. So maybe I'm not gonna get one.
I had to Google translate that (yeah, my Sweedish is rusty, OK?!), but nice to see that the US ain't got no stinkin' monopoly on racist asshats. 'War on Christmas" THIS, mofos!
It was supposed to auto-translate! gah! But yeah, it's basically that this Swedish company was trying to make a commercial that was inclusive, with a dark-skinned, gender-neutral Lucia, and when the commercial aired, the Swedish version of the Alt-right lost their shit.
Which is ironic, because the saint that the holiday celebrates was actually Italian anyway, and so probably not blond but instead dark-haired and dark-skinned, and everyone one in Sweden knows that.

And |here's the one I posted last year,| because I still like it best.

I've always liked them, too, but I'd totally have to have an electric version for the same reason.
Electric Landlady?

Before that you'll have to figure out how to get wax out of your hair.
I thought wax was to get out hair.

As desperate and lonely as I may be, if a chick gouges out her own eyes and gives them to me, I'm not calling her back.
Maybe she can hook up with Van Gogh…
I've never been exactly sure either how that's supposed to be inspiring.
Lose the eyes to protect the hymen!
Protect the patriarchy!
The eyes have it!
I guess they hadn't figured out saddlebacking back then yet.
And there's no reason the men can't get in on a little holiday illumination: http://www.boredpanda.com/beard-fairy-lights/
Goddamn hipsters!
So Jebediah is OK with electric light now?
It's a beard, it's a nightlight!
It is better to disable one streetlight than to curse the light pollution.
And happy belated | Our Lady of Guadalupe | Day, papists!
