| 3225 | Article | Vaporman87 | It's easy to forget traditions that are gone. Once they are replaced by new ones, the old ones seem to get obscured by the passing years. After reading this, I tried to recall some traditions of Christmases past that are now gone. To my surprise, there are a lot of them. From the get-togethers at my grandparent's houses, to even the get-togethers (in more recent years) at my dad's and also my mom's house. We no longer do any of those things. My grandparents and my mom are no longer with us. My dad, getting divorced now for the second time, lives alone. No more family gatherings there. Those are just the big ones. There are so many more small traditions that are no more. All replaced by new ones that I and my own little family participate in. I hope these new traditions last for as long as my children want them to. I must always be keenly aware of what little things may mean a lot to them during the holidays.

| 3224 | Article | Rick Ace Rhodes | Thanks guys. I know it didn't seem Retro enough, and that's something I try to avoid in general. However, I figured since it happened long ago it fit alright. | The Post-Christmas Video Game Marathon | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 3223 | Article | Hoju Koolander | The explosions and makeup parts were fun, but I am more touched that you got along with your Mom's boyfriend's daughter. I had as similar experience, where my Mom's boyfriend wasn't my favorite guy in the world, but his Grandson and I were best buds. They could take as much time for hanky-panky as they wanted as long as the two of us got to hang out. We're still in touch today and have many years of adventures to look back on. | Expl-ho-ho-ho-sion | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 3222 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I laughed at your comparison to Cousin Eddie, that really set the scene. All my extended family lived out of state growing up so Christmas time was celebrated with just my older brother and sister's families, I would have loved a huge party like this to complain about years later;) | What a Stuffy Party! | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 3221 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I can totally see this being a network Christmas special sponsored by Atari in 1981 starring Scott Baio or Michael J Fox. Such a heartwarming tale for the holidays. | Perfect Game | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 3220 | Article | Hoju Koolander | At my work Gift Exchange the only thing offered seems to be various bottles of booze, so I really miss the days when an action figure or Ace of Base CD could be up for grabs. This was a very fun story and the fact that you made your own Sailor Moon costumes is awesome. I used to do the same thing for my Spider-Man toys, building him armor and doing re-paints. | A Mature Gift Exchange | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 3219 | Article | Hoju Koolander | I think more kids should get the gift of stilts. Pogo sticks and unicycles are so played out, only the truly original choose stilts. Seriously, that's awesome. | Retro Christmas Presents | Dec 14, 2015 | |
| 3218 | Article | NLogan | @vkimo, mine were tattooed former airborne rangers at 6'6" and 6'4" respectively. One put us on his Harley Davidson motorcycle and wheelied scaring the crap out of me. The other had the nickname "Tree" and had his own slot machine one armed bandit that you could play. It never escalated beyond beating them at chess and losing to them in arm wrestles. By the time I could actually take them in high school I was heavily into martial arts and they were both in their late 50s. But I still remember the, "Say boy, c'mere lookit this". | Bah Humbug! | Dec 14, 2015 | |
