This is satire, right?

Of course, most women are content with something pink and expensive under the Christmas tree

With lines like that I bloody hope so..

it does look suspiciously like any other christmas shopping suggestions list so I think they might be being half-serious.. or deliberately poking us.

If it really flew, I'd be totally up for a broomstick for Christmas. Just not Granny Weatherwax's one, I couldn't be doing with all that running backwards and forwards to get the fucking thing to start. Had enough of doing that with cars when I was a student.

Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg would sort all of this current nonsense out, with a combo of sharp looks from GW, and frank talk about biology from Nanny.

The tee shirts reminds me that my budding elec eng DD might like a funny one... so, spot the difference between the womens and the mens. Hmm

Some of us don't need broomsticks of course.Dragon

Well jel!

Broomsticks are nice, but I never really got around to learning witchcraft, so wouldn't have much use for one.

A sword and a chainmail shirt, so that I may the better slay patriarchy, on the other hand ...

Not just Pratchett references! Xenophile admirably picks up STP's style of writing GW's speech patterns. Kudos! Xmas Smile
