The Shaman,
Naughty, naughty, very naughty.

elQuintoConyo · 10/12/2020 09:22

Xmas Grin fabulous! I'm bopping round my living room in my onesie rather than writing reports!

Welcome FindHungrySamurai (is that a bit like hungry hippos...?)

@elQuintoConyo

What's the chemical formula for snow?
H2O surely?

As long as it's the white snow, the yellow stuff will have a very different formula. 😖

Feel free to identify the source of my NN for a virtual bonus point (it’s not particularly difficult TBF).

Stompythedinosaur · 10/12/2020 10:46

I think H2O too - surely it is just water?

OhLittleBoreOfWhabylon · 10/12/2020 10:55

How have I missed this?!

Yes, H2O for snow, although I often add NaCl to my front path.

InTheCludgie · 10/12/2020 13:58

Shaman sang Ebenezer Good (takes me back!)
Agree that snow is H2O

'Find hungry samurai. Even bears leave the forest when they are hungry.’

elQuintoConyo · 10/12/2020 23:54

I googled the hungry samurai - ashamed to say I've never seen the film, but I am married to someone who's seen it about 100x if that makes up for it?

welcome OhLittleBoreOfWhabylon I take it that's your Christmas name change? I'm always worried I wouldn't be able to change back - and how'd you all find me??

Friday is here, hip hip hooray!

Another Christmas song question for today.

Q11:
Which two reindeer are mentioned in the song Here Comes Santa Claus?

and.... now I've got an earworm!

AdaColeman · 11/12/2020 09:54

Vixen and Blitzen 🦌 🦌 🦌 🦌 🦌

I've eaten reindeer (not a whole one) when I was in Poland.

TrickyD · 11/12/2020 10:43

Late on parade here. I think AdaColeman is correct.

InTheCludgie · 11/12/2020 11:55

I'm running the sun through my head but can't identify any reindeer names. Obviously not paid enough attention to the lyrics in the past!

InTheCludgie · 11/12/2020 11:55

Song, not sun! Some sun would be great tbh, pouring it down here

AdaColeman · 11/12/2020 15:40

Oooh Tricky, that's very formal, just call me Ada! Xmas Smile

elQuintoConyo · 11/12/2020 17:29

Is there... is there some flirting going on here? Xmas Grin

which I always thought was a weird thing to sing!

Yes, it's Vixen and Blitzen. Which made me think of pne of my favourite reindeer quotes, who said this in a sitcom:

"I've been on Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, I've been on Comet and Cupid, on Donner but not Blitzen, he likes to watch!"

Yo Vipers! Saturday is here, can I get a woop woop?

I love embarassing myself [frgin]

Has no one recognised the reindeer quote from above?

Question 12:

Can you name either job the female leads have in the Christmas film The Holiday? (starring Kate Winslet and Cameron Diaz)

OP posts:
TrickyD · 12/12/2020 09:16

Iris, Kate Winslet, was a society gossip columnist, Amanda, Cameron, produced short films.

Hello, Ada, 😘.
Must keep elQuintoConyo happy.

Not quite, TrickyD , but very close.

OP posts:
FindHungrySamurai · 12/12/2020 09:47

Oh these are fiendish. Never watched The Holiday, and no idea about the sitcom.
I’m going to guess that one of them was a party planner and one of them was a civil engineer (yes I know that one’s unlikely, but it would make a nice change for a rom com heroine, no?)

elQuintoConyo · 12/12/2020 10:04

Actually, as romcoms go, it wasn't that nauseating. Jack Black was shit, Kate Winslet really got the fuzzyend of the lollipop. But I'd take The Holiday a millions times over Love Hate Actually.

Plus, Rufus Sewell Xmas Smile swoon!
