"Alright, check THIS out. Your grandma gives you this ornament, right? Says it's 'priceless.' Says it survived forty years. FORTY. YEARS. It made it through Nixon, made it through wars, made it through your Uncle's second divorce—and probably a tornado. You put it on the tree, you step back, you admire it. You think, 'This is nice.'
Then Mittens—Mittens, who weighs nine pounds soaking wet—comes flying through like he's been shot out of a cannon, hits that tree like a linebacker, and now Grandma's 'priceless' memory is glitter dust on your floor. That's not an ornament, ladies and gentlemen. That's a fuckament. And you know what? Grandma's ghost is watching from heaven like, 'Well... shit.'
