The Airing of Grievances and New Year's Resolutions

They may be late but the Festivus tradition of the "Airing of Grievances" will not be broken!

Due to the fact that it's Old Year's Night and a new year is upon us in a few hours, we'll also list New Year's Resolutions that you asshats should live by.

Let's start with MC, since he did us waaaaay dirty this past year.

MC

Your Most Heinous Grievance of 2008 -

How is it you managed to find a woman and engage she before anyone has even met her?! Mk does not count as the lot of us having met her.

You also did not come this way for Thanksgiving either but taking the other grievance into consideration, this is the least of our worries.

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

Make sure there's good food at your wedding.

TD5

Grievance of 2008 -

We can't believe you really did find Jeebus before you found us last year! But luckily you did find us this year before TOTALLY finding Jeebus.

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

Not so much as a resolution but a concern. We're concerned that this may become a yearly thing with you...this Finding of Jeebus.

X

Grievance of 2008 -

Worst than ever before, your runk like a skunk behaviour was way out of control. And if not for an in house Holiday party this year, WHO KNOWS what kind of hooker-ing was going to go down and what this grievance would have been.

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

We thought kicking you out of The Oxtails would sober you some, but clearly you are wrong and strong. Please be try to less runk and more skunk. Skunks are cute.

Frass

Grievances of 2008 -

Not as severe as last year but on principle we have to have three. We recall you disappeared on us at some point during Spring but came back in full force by bestowing us with candy from London and almost successfully defended it from the bottomless pit that is your sister, free dinner (and maybe you should have a grievance with us for inviting Alex and X but let us not talk about that...moving along), and bringing us lots of alcohol. However, you also downsized H1's gift from Italy and suggest that her fierceness was not fierce enough.

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

We think you should strive to be less angry about not having parties.

Beetchie

Grievance of 2008

You went to Grenada to get away from being in servitude, then demands stuff from us while over there. As Watanuki, that is not how things work!

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

Be a proper servant.

CLee

Grievance of 2008

Smug! Your smugness increased in 2008!

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

We would you like to be in NY with the HOchieS for TWO months and of course, try to stop liking the smell of your own farts.

Bughie J.

Grievance of 2008

At first we thought this was a grievance free year for you once more but H1 suddenly remembered that she did not get any brownies yet.

The HochieS resolution for you in 2009 -

We require two batches of brownies. Perhaps we will make them Easter brownies to give you some time.

Pandy

Grievance of 2008

We used to be BFFs. For the entire year, we were BFFs and then you went to Australia and you fell off the face of the planet (there AND when you got back!)

The HOchieS resolution for you in 2009 -

You too are to ensure that the food at your wedding is good, or else you'll find yourself higher on the grievance list.

Diderick and The Cheat

Grievance of 2008 -

While I thank you for my Royal Dansk butter cookies, you truly did me an unkindness. You know I suffer from an addiction!

Or 2's resolution for you in 2009 -

Buy a smaller tin for me next Christmas.

Or 2

Grievance of 2008 and resolution for 2009

Stop making me watch your damned anime!!! - H1

H1

Grievance of 2008 and resolution for 2009

You'll watch my damned anime if I want! - Or 2.

The HOchies Don't Do New Year's Resolutions

At least not for ourselves... directly. We decided that this year, we'll do resolutions for you guys.

Yes, Yes. Beetchie already "ewww-ed" me.

But hold on, it's not as obnoxious as you think. We're not making resolutions we think you people should follow, we're doing Resolutions HOchie Style. For instance:

1. X. This year, we will no longer be cateering to High Maintenance X. You can kick shoes up and down the stairs, corridor or house as much as you want but let me tell you, you're going to have to find your own leopard print bedroom slippers to do so.

2. Mitch Connors. We don't have one for you. Don't forget: D.T.U.

3. SF. Never strive to be more than you are - being stupid is not a sin. We love you the way you are and that is our resolution for you.

4. TD5. Okay, so we lied. We actually do have a resolution for YOU to follow. Try being less of an ass this year. And thanks.

5. Bughie J.. Or 2 actually has a real resolution. I will try to not harrass you too much in my requests for anime and music. Umm, right after I request Bleach. =)

6. Beetchie. Stop judging us, but even though we know you will continue to do so, we won't care. And stop chewing the cud as you read this.
