Grandma's been spending too much time in one area of the dealer's room. Laughing

Merry Xmas! Happy Hanukkah! Jolly Kwanzaa! And all that jazz.

I love grandma! But the burning question is: did Robin come up with the ornaments on her own? My roommates actually bought an ornament that for real looks like those... The only differences are that the tail was red, and he was wearing a little santa hat. o.o

Last year my family (my dad) decided to get an ornament of Kirk fighting Spock that actually plays the fight music from Star Trek. It is kind of big, but it is quite awesome.

Happy Holidays!

What... Lovely ornaments? Not sure what to think... I was expecting something more yaoi-related since it is good ol' Grandma...

Happy Holidays to all! ^_^

Grandma Rose's heart was in the right place, but seriously WTF?

I enjoy some Yaoi every now and then, but that's just not right.

Happy Holidays to all! Anime smile


Obviously, they're meant to be together! Their secret Merman Love will prevail! Splitting them up onto two different trees is just symbolic of the way Merperson Society has tried to keep them apart.

Hahaha, leave it to a seasoned citizen. Good job, Robin. Your work continues to amaze and amuse.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, everyone (especially you, staff of Rightstuf, now that your organization has all my spare change).

Heh, I ordered a bunch of anime related goods and sent them home for my mom to wrap. Later she texts me saying something like

"Well it's not really a surprise anymore since you bought all your own gifts"

"well buy me something and wrap it"

"Ah that will be a challenge"

"Well now you have reference material"

I wonder if she is actually going to attempt to buy me something anime related....
