yardhippie 0 #26 November 9, 2005 Im not a fan of xmas trees, but that I might consider. Just to freak out my friends! Goddam dirty hippies piss me off! ~GFD "What do I get for closing your rig?" ~ me "Anything you want." ~ female skydiver Mohoso Rodriguez #865 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brains 2 #27 November 9, 2005 QuoteAs for me, I'm installing mine sideways this year. Oh yeah, it's going to be all the rage! Hmm, that would be kind of like you waxing nostalgic thinking of all the windblown trees in OK right? Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

hungarianchick 0 #28 November 9, 2005 In my BF's restaurant it's an old tradition. They hang a small, decorated tree from the beams upside down. It looks cool there and it goes with the rest of the scene... But the one you posted looks weird indeed. "I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food."

Kris 0 #29 November 9, 2005 QuoteHmm, that would be kind of like you waxing nostalgic thinking of all the windblown trees in OK right? Exactly! But I'm going to have one end piercing the heart of an adult deer, as an homage to my need for violent retribution for having my last car destroyed by one. I'm all about the realism / symbolism dichotomy of fine art.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rebecca 0 #32 November 9, 2005 QuoteWell, you could fit more presents under the tree that way! That's the rationale... but it's still weird... I'm gonna look into this... you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lolie 0 #33 November 9, 2005 I seem to remember Omri sending me a picture of his upside-down Christmas tree a couple years ago. Maybe if he ever posted anymore he could confirm this. -Miranda you shall above all things be glad and young / For if you're young,whatever life you wear it will become you;and if you are glad / whatever's living will yourself become.

Dagny 0 #34 November 9, 2005 QuoteWell, you could fit more presents under the tree that way! Is this really a problem? Do people have so many presents that we need our trees to be flipped to accomodate them? I need a tree with NO space for presents underneath that way no one will be disappointed to see so much empty space!

Dagny 0 #35 November 9, 2005 QuoteWeird is buying all matching fancy stuff, getting on an airplane, going to 13,000 feet, jumping out, goofing off while falling to the earth, pulling a parachute to save your life, landing and packing it back up to do again! We should ALL have upside down Christmas trees! Hey, man. In a world full of conforming, socially acceptable, right side up Christmas trees, us skydivers are all upside down. Take me, I am the drug; take me, I am hallucinogenic. -Salvador Dali Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sinker 0 #38 November 9, 2005 i'm buying one for the satanist in the family... he wears an upside-down cross, why shouldn't he have an upside-down christmas tree? -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebecca 0 #39 November 9, 2005 Quotei'm buying one for the satanist in the family... he wears an upside-down cross, why shouldn't he have an upside-down christmas tree? Funny enough, after looking into it, upside down is a traditionally accepted display method, both for Christian and Pagan celebrants. It just hasn't been around for a while. Well I'll be a sky's uncle. you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
