Yule Log
And going into the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshipped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts of gold and frankincense and corn.

Why do I never have any money?
December 24, 2012 at 4:22 pm
I am seriously considering buying this for my father.
December 25, 2012 at 10:36 am
OMG, I think we have the same father, this is exactly what I was just thinking.

I like it better lying on its side – “the poop that defied gravity” should be a Christmas miracle.
December 24, 2012 at 4:25 pm
Holy shit! These are a thing!
December 25, 2012 at 4:18 am
It gets even better, there’s another Catalan Xmas tradition about a log that you feed every day until Christmas then it shits out presents! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tió_de_Nadal

This changed my life.

You want to know what’s scarier than the fact this exists? The fact it’s actually a really popular tradition in areas of Spain, Portugal, and Italy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caganer

The best part is they sell all sorts of them now. You can get pretty much any cartoon character you want. The biggest one is located in Italy every year though.

It was the Hello Kitty caganer that got me laughing.

Please don’t be offended by our surprise that pooping characters exist. We just don’t know shit about tradition.
December 26, 2012 at 11:46 am
My dad’s from Portugal. I thought this was disgusting. Tradition doesn’t necessarily make something is sacred or impervious to criticism. It feels so good to say that after Christmas!

Scary is less about what it’s doing and more about the “quality” of the craftsmanship.
January 4, 2013 at 12:56 pm
What the fuck is wrong with you? how dare you compare tragedies like school shootings to people making fun of your precious shitting figurine?
If you’re not just trolling you ARE crazy, sick, and scary. Adjust your fucking priorities and seek professional help.
December 24, 2012 at 6:11 pm
Holy literal shit.
Regretsy is nothing if not educational.
December 24, 2012 at 6:15 pm
I had no idea. None. I’ve lead such a sheltered life. The only…interesting…statue I’ve ever heard about was Manneken Pis. You’re supposed to learn one new thing every day, and this is it for me, for Christmas Eve.
Now THAT would make a hell of a Christmas present, a set of salt and pepper shakers. Caganer could crap pepper out of his ass and Manneken Pis can provide the salt!

My personal favourite is the Pope one.

Also here are some excellent Caganer:

Funny that people seem to be coming over all eeeeuw over a well-established southern European tradition. Still it is a bit odd, I suppose.
December 24, 2012 at 4:31 pm
why do they say “large” when it obviously isn’t?

Once again, 666 Lake of Fire Terraces, 4th Circle, Hell. Red house, screams of agony emanating from within. See you there!

What? Tintin poops? There goes my childhood…
December 24, 2012 at 7:58 pm
I’m disturbed by the fact that Snowy’s poop appears to be white. Like, I don’t care if he has white fur; his poop isn’t turning white until it’s been sitting there for a week, minimum.
If I were crass enough to own and display these (which I almost am) I think I’d get the Pope and Spongebob so I could place them together for Maximum Sacrilege(tm).
December 24, 2012 at 8:25 pm
I can’t decide which one I like best. Einstein looks mildly pleased to have crapped out a log, the queen looks a bit constipated, and look at how stylish MJ looks! Whee-hee!
December 24, 2012 at 9:31 pm
He’s wearing two white gloves though. That ain’t right.
December 24, 2012 at 11:33 pm
One’s for wiping and will be discarded.
December 24, 2012 at 11:01 pm
I like how the poop is color-coordinated – Snowy’s is white, SpongeBob’s is yellow. And I’m sure the Queen’s has no smell.
December 25, 2012 at 4:48 am
Something about the legacy we leave behind, I suppose.
December 24, 2012 at 4:40 pm
Do they have an all-mac-n-cheese diet over there in Italy?
December 24, 2012 at 5:17 pm
Thank god the Downthumb Grinch is here! It’s a fucking Christmas miracle!
December 24, 2012 at 5:40 pm
I thumbed you up, Matt. Merry Christmas!
December 26, 2012 at 8:42 am
Merry Christmas, Melagrana!

Thumb, they told me, down thumba-thumb thumb.
I am a poor-excuse-for-a-human – down-thumba- thumb thumb.
December 24, 2012 at 6:00 pm
I’m typing this on my phone with literal thumbs in a bar after having a few. RESPECT, BITCHES!! (It took 10 minutes)
December 25, 2012 at 8:23 am
Merry Christmas, drunk Zippy!
December 25, 2012 at 9:07 am
Back attcha, hopefully-at-least-tipsy Mel!
December 24, 2012 at 10:58 pm
You should be reassured, Matt! Wouldn’t you be lonely at this point if your downthumber ever left?
December 24, 2012 at 4:46 pm
Don’t poo poo this – it will be the gift that keeps regifting…filled with tons of subtext!!

SO HELP ME IF ONE OF YOU MOTHERFUCKERS OUTBIDS ME
December 24, 2012 at 5:04 pm
I could Google it, but I would really love for one of you scholars to edify me as to the significance of the pooping shepherd.
December 24, 2012 at 5:16 pm
Well, according to the tradition…this guy was the one unfortunate idiot stuck on the toilet when Jesus was born. Now Italians make fun of him every year and one city even has a giant statue of this about the size of a one story house. Welcome to Europe folks. Enjoy your stay.

Lesson:
If Mary could pop a baby through her virgin hymen and very shortly thereafter receive company, you can ignore the turtle head long enough to pop in for a “Hey howyadoin’, nice baby! Gotta get back to the shi…eep” so as to avoid eternal butt shaming.
December 24, 2012 at 6:17 pm
Anyone else besides me get a chuckle when they ‘logged’ out?

Iiiiii’m dreaming of a whiiiiite shitmas…
December 24, 2012 at 7:49 pm
This seems to be a literal interpretation of what Precious Moments are ironically.
But why the fuck is it orange?!!?! If your shit is Cheez Whiz, you need to see a fucking doctor STAT.
Though I think I can predict the diagnosis…

Jingle bells, pooping elves
Selling on eBay
Are these the elves
Sitting on the shelves
Watching you night and da-ay?

I can honestly say this is one figurine my mom never had in her manger scene. Clearly, her cultural knowledge was lacking (we lived in a small town in Iowa, we’d never even heard of Catalan). I don’t think she would’ve been offended by it, though. We had various plastic farm animals from we kids toys in the scene(including pigs, which were definitely not Kosher), as well as a Pilgrim man and woman made out of corn husks. My mother wasn’t what you’d call a purist.

“We’re gonna need more Frankincense in here.”

That was very myrrh-thful!

You’re spreading it on thick.

The face of the figurine is so disturbing…there’s a Regretsy Math in there somewhere, dammit.

EEEEEWWWwwwwwww…
p.s.- Are we not getting any more posts until 2013? This is making my work day pretty boring.
December 27, 2012 at 12:12 pm
I know how you feel about the posting forecast.
December 27, 2012 at 12:36 pm
I feel like I discovered this site a little late. It seems like they’re just phoning it in at this point. I guess all good things come to an end at some point, right?
December 27, 2012 at 12:56 pm
I’ve resorted to playing Words With Friends, with strangers.
December 27, 2012 at 1:01 pm
I can’t do that. The setup of this site is so well suited to how I have down-time at my job. I can just type my lame joke and walk away, then come back and enjoy the downthumbs any time I want.
December 27, 2012 at 1:03 pm
Upthumbs from some of us!
December 27, 2012 at 1:14 pm
I was just kidding. I just get downthumbs from my one or two superfans.
What about you? Do you work or are you at home?
December 27, 2012 at 4:44 pm
Work. But I’ve been in bed with flu for 3 days now, so entertainment has been crucial.
That includes you and your superfan’s battle of opposing thumbs.
December 29, 2012 at 11:40 pm
It’s been 2 days. Did you two get a room? Was there any free food or drinks you didn’t scarf down? Tiny chocolates? Did you guys use up the bathroom stuff?
December 31, 2012 at 2:39 pm
Matt hogged all the conditioner!
December 30, 2012 at 12:55 am
I’m guessing they just took a few days off. It is holiday time after all. That’s what most people do.

Oh, hi, I gave your baby Jesus a blumpkin for Christmas.
