Tra La La Which is a Fancy Way of Saying Absolutely Nothing But This

If the holiday spirit doesn't move you while watching the following video then I don't think we can be friends.

Which is a total lie because while I love this video and would be disappointed if you did not feel the same I still think we could be friends if you gave me all your People magazines after you were done reading them and the page corners were not smudged with something horribly brown in my no-good imagination, or if you do a spot-on Kim Zolciak impression, or if maybe you also like nutella on toast with butter and then a second slice with slightly more butter and nutella. Yeah. (Things to consider: please order me a chai if you are going to Starbucks before meeting me--I'll pay you back--and you'll need to overlook the fact that I suck at doing accents even though sometimes I feel moved to speak as if I am from some British enclave in the Deep South.)

Screw it. The video is cool and all but being friends with you is the awesomest.

Missed you,
S

I think it will be a good day now. What a start.

I think your shared love of Nutella would assure we would always be BFFs. Speaking of, I received this catalog in the mail recently. They claimed this was better than Nutella. Is that possible? I am going to procure some for myself to do an official taste test.

I think our husbands should buy us this for Christmas:

It took me a while to comment because I have been feverishly forwarding this video on to everyone I know.

I think you just made my Christmas.

Awesome - love the Fosse walk.

I also adore Nutella and Starbucks (skim, no water) Chai.

I love that you are posting even while busy with your new job - thanks!

Sharon - I have not tried the Zingerman's nutella, but their food is great if you are ever in Ann Arbor - they also have great candy you can buy at Whole Foods.

i am going to walk to the store today to buy some nutella and some eggnog.
today is working up to be the best day ever...

I'm older than you are, so you might not have had this reaction. I am sitting here with tears in my eyes that those guys wanted to perform, were able to, and the crowd was going crazy. That would not have happened in my high school gym. Thank goodness times are changing.

What a a sight...a gaggle of gay men with better high kicks than the Rockettes. I've crossed that one off my Christmas list. Thanks!

Awesome. And I never use that word.

I do have a whole stack of mint Peoples - where should I leave them? And while I agree with you completely on the Nutella on toast, I have to say I think the butter would dilute the yumminess, no? But perhaps I'll give it a shot...

Wow. This is almost (or maybe it is) better than the "Party In The US Gay" video - no Miley Cyrus in that one, Sweetcheeks. No siree, just those fabulous gays.

And I love it. Sometimes videos like this make me wish I could go back to my high school job - working at Banana Republic.

Thanks for posting.

p.s. I was Kim Zolciack for Halloween.

1. I just watched the video with Troy hoping the fabulousity of it would rub off on him.

2. I used to have a gal that worked for me at the shop. Everytime she came in, she would bring me her magazines:People, US Weekly, Glamour.
I didn't even mind paying her; it was like she was paying me.

3. I bought store brand Nutella a few weeks ago and just found out it was recalled. I KNOW.

Do you think they had a cat-fight over who would be called Dancer or Prancer? ;)

The guy in the black tank-top was my total fave!

Is Zoey still on a princess high from Disney?

This is the most awesomest video in the history of ever!!! :)

SO GOOD!

MFAMB said...

if the gap knows what's up they will make the 12 gays of christmas into a commerical.

The first thing I'm going to do when I become rich is get a subscription to People magazine. When that happens I won't share my old copies with you because I'll get you a subscription too. Then we can sit around, eat Nutella and read it together while commenting on Jessica Simpson's wardrobe.

Petunia Face said...

I wish we could all get together to recreate this dance. Not that we'd kick that high or be that fabulous, but it would still be fun to try.

amber {daisy chain} said...

hilarious! I'm pretty sure we need to do this, as in our group of friends do this for the holidays. can you imagine how great that would be??
