Nobots are on my "Do not get this for me or I'll make you eat your socks" list. I have enough problems with something making loud noises just by walking by it.

It's called a dog.

I've never got a decoration for Christmas. Tho, I have made a raindeer once out of a clothes pin when I was a but a little kitsune cub. Hee, hee, I was so cute then. And so rabid. Good times.

Anyways.

Don't know what happened to it. I know the family still has it somewhere maybe. To me, stuff like that holds the same "Keep that hidden for life" values as baby pictures in the birthday suit. You keep it as well hidden as the Holy Grail and hope no adventurous idiot happens to fall upon it.

As for the email itself, I quite enjoyed it. It's a change to see Strong Bad and Marzipan getting along together. And I think they make a good team in making fun of some of the stupid gifts to get someone on Christmas/Decemberween.

9/10, the creepy nobots knocked off the last point.

Just so creepy.

No one has mentioned yet that the nobots in flower pots are a reference to the Rock'n Flowers from 1989. I seem to remember that they were very popular for at least a short time. The Homestar looks like it operates in the same way as the flowers even. The flowers just had a stiff, bent wire rotating inside of the stem, causing the flower to bob around. The Homestar would just need a curved wire inside the legs that would spin and give the appearance of 6 moving knees (and probably a small connecting wire to spin the propeller). One difference is that the flowers did not play music, but they had a sound sensor. You could put a radio by them and the louder the sound, the faster they would move.
The only place I could find images was on ebay, so here is a comparison.

I swear I get stuff like :sb: describes for Christmas from my Grandma every year. I think the funniest aspect of the e-mail is how true it is!

I'm so happy to see more of Marzipan :) I thought it was pretty funny so I wasn't too disappointed.

I was hoping we could actually see him get fifty bucks for an omelette (or however it's spelled).

Would that also be your list of characters in order of great to not great? Because that would be the only thing that makes sense, considering the Poopsmith is 7, and he shovels crap...

No, I put them in random order, maybe except for Trogdor.
And Poopsmith shovels crap and says nothing, what's better?

Since the Holidays are coming, this email was awesome! I like how Strong Bad makes fun of those bidding adverts they have during the winter holidays.
