Happy Horny Werewolf Day 2012. Yeah. Not Gonna Let Go of This Tradition Anytime Soon
Posted by mistergroonk in Artist, Holiday, LOL on February 14, 2012
And now here’s the day as we’ve come to call it since 2007, 2008 and 2011. 2010 could fuck right off, apparently.
Always remember: Valentine’s Day is a Christian corruption of a pagan festival involving werewolves, blood and fucking. So wish people a happy Horny Werewolf Day and see what happens.

Twitterer @RonSalas retweeted an old Christmas card @CalamityJon created a few years ago.
The Krampus is an old myth that the Venture Brothers introduced us to a few years ago. Take a walk through YouTube and you’ll find tons of contemporary parade and Traditional Krampus videos all up in there.
Now imagine our surprise when we learned obscure mythologist writer most extraordinary, Neil Gaiman, did not know of the Krampus.
@neilhimself whaaaa?!Really?!*I* knew about Krampus… how can this be?! #DogsAndCatsLivingTogether #NothingMakesSenseAnymore
