	I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard at otf_wank. And I learned some fascinating new Christmas traditions! Shit, log! (Reply to this)

	I will never again claim that Puerto Ricans are weird. Cleary, the Catalonians have us beat. And whenever I'm down, I will ask myself, "How much wank can a nose cause?" (Reply to this)

	I remember hearing about the pooping logs before... either here or on fandom_wank. This place is so educational! looks around nervously for men with too many noses (Reply to this)

	How does he pick which nose to discard each day? Does he say, “Today I pick you” to the nose running away squealing, “’Snot fair”? This would make him the noses’ Bogey man. *hides (Reply to this)(Thread)

	OH BLOW ME. I'm suing you for soft tissue damage sustained when I read your post, fainted, and my head collided with my desk. My laywer says I have a case, as everybody nose puns are bad for your health. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

All right, I have a confession to make.

I don't know how old I was at the time, but I dimly recall being VERY confused about how Jesus could grow up and become a rabbi in only a few months (born on Christmas, died on Easter). I figured it was supposed to be a miracle or something, and didn't question the logic any more than I would have questioned his turning water into wine.

My mother didn't have any kids that lived :(

I had that dillema, and briefly I couldn't work how he could be dead before he was born, in my mind easter comes before christmas. I believe originallyI resolved it with he was the messiah, which meant he was basically superman in sandals.

And then it clicked and Sunday School made a little more sense than normal. I blame the fact that I also readily believed the flood, and Genesis, so if all that could happen so quickly then so could Jesus's life.

	I think a lot of kids ask that question at some point. The one I usually hear from adults, though, is "If Immaculate Conception" is Dec. 8th, how was Jesus born on Dec. 25th? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A blessedly short pregnancy? (On the other hand, nine months compressed into 17 days sounds like... well, yes like a Star Trek episode, but also MASSIVELY UNCOMFORTABLE.) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Because the immaculate conception was Mary's, not Jesus'. She had to be pure of original sin to be the mother of God, but that's not possible because humans are created by sex and therefore tainted by original sin, so apparently some early Christian thinker just threw in the towel and said "It was immaculate, alright? Mary's parents were just really holy about their sex!"

	I pictured a Round Yon Virgin as something like a Tyson chicken patty. The "Yon" made it sound like something savory to me. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	When I was really little, I figured Jesus was the same kind of myth as the Roman or Egyptian gods, which I'd read a lot about. Being from a largely irreligious family, I had no idea what the difference was. I do not remember the incident, but I'm told I said something to this effect that very nearly gave my devoutly Catholic grandmother a heart attack. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ah, you failed to grasp the distinction that all those pagan gods are just mythology, but OUR god is TRUTH. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh, me too! In my case, I didn't realise people actually believed that stuff until I was in Grade 3. Our teacher asked us which came first, the chicken or the egg, and one of my classmates said that it was the chicken, because it made more sense for God to make the chicken first. I was stunned (luckily beyond words, or I might have said something unfortunate). (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I guess I failed reading comprehension, because I think he has NO noses. New Year's Eve? Last day of the year, there are zero days left in the year* = zero noses left on his face. Or maybe he has half a nose. Maybe his noses fall off in parts! * I know, cos I read it on Wikipedia. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	caito 2007-09-10 03:08 am UTC (link)
	I read that as "maybe his noses fall off in pants," and thought, well, that makes about as much sense as any other explanation, I guess. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Every topic worth discussing can be associated with muppets, y/y? The bit that this made me think of is at about 4:40. In other news, I want my very own present-shitting log! (Reply to this)

I'm Catalan and I love this wank and you for posting it. Yes, we are possibly the weirdest, most poop-obsessed culture in the world. Will post pictures in the lounge of the traditional Christmas Market of Santa Llúcia, where there are stalls upon stalls of shitting logs, pooping figurines (called "El Caganer") and even noses shed by the nose-man.

Also, trying to imagine Amélie as imagined by readyreadygo's definition of 'whimsy'... Amélie has just headbutted her dad.
