  • I'm allergic to real Christmas trees. As evidenced by the fact I've been sicker than a damn dog for the past 5 days. My eyes were glued shut for two of those days, and my nose is still clogged up.

    My doctor told me it's a bummer to be allergic to Christmas trees. I said at least I don't have to worry about tree fires.

    A spinal cord injury that involves breathing difficulty is usually between C2 & C3 which, technically, is a neck injury.

    Doctors, especially surgeons, make us be precise.

  • This is the one my sister started singing to the tune of the carol "O Christmas Tree": "O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree. I'm mad at you 'cause you fell on me" hahaha...

  • what. do Americans get Christmas trees in middle of November? Here in Northern Europe we buy or cut the tree a week before or later and throw it out after new year

  • @rbrrosebitrose I believe it is a hat of some sort

  • Respond to this video... If you're climbing a tree, even if you don't have"proper" safety equipment (harness/ropes), at least tie *something* around your waist to prevent a long fall.

  • @hyperbaricchicken101 There's nothing like a real tree, but I buy them from tree farms, and double up on the smoke detectors.....
