National Lampoons Christmas Vacation



I finally did it!! I actually watched National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Go ahead, pat me on the back. I wrote down my thoughts while watching the movie (using a Hannah Montana pen in case you were wondering).
  • I don't know what I was expecting, but the movie was more quirky that I ever thought it could be. Sometimes in a funny way, and sometimes in a "MAKE IT STOP!" kind of way.
  • I now have an incredible urge to go Christmas shopping. Like, in a Mall with department stores.
  • I will never look at RV's the same again. When I think of RV, all I see and think is "poop". EW!
  • If I ever become that narcissistic about Christmas lights, be a real friend and punch me in the face. Or something.
  • When it's about time for me to become a homeowner I'll first pick a house I love, then stalk the neighborhood to make sure my neighbors are cool (ie NO Griswalds). Does that make me creepy?
  • "I pledge allegiance to the Flag...." I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants. I'll let you decide if there is any truth to that last statement.
So that wraps up my summary of National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. And, I just realized that I was SUPPOSED to just watch National Lampoons Vacation, but screw it, this counts!

P.S. I wasn't lying about the Hannah Montana pen. How we became owner of this bad boy (err....girl?), I do not know.

  2. Ok, I've never seen half the movies on your list and have never even heard of a few of them. Perhaps I need to join you in some of your pop culture education.
