Get the bank holiday mug.It's the feeling of dread hanging over you when you have to go to work on a federal holiday because your company skimps on holiday pay and only offers the "6 major holidays". This is usually triggered by seeing your spouse still in bed as you head out the door to work. Holidaze may be accompanied by bitterness and envy.
Sara didn't want to go to work today. She made lots of noise getting ready to rouse her sleeping husband, kicked the cat, and silently prayed for a cable outage so that her husband would be bored all day. Sara has a serious case of holidaze.

Get the holiday mug.this is a website that was created by a british guy named mike marsden informing people on a number of ways to commit suicide. the website gave specific instructions on the many methods to kill yourself: how long it will take to die, the availability of the method, the certainty of death and any remaining notes on the method of choice. The website was not a joke and was meant to be taken very seriously. Micheal marsden took his life and the last official maintainer of the website was angela watson otherwise known as "psycho kitten"
"I'm going to that website Alt.suicide.holiday to read up on ways to kill myself."
Here is an example from the old website:
1)SLITTING WRISTS (often not effective)
Time:Minutes if major artery cut, eternity otherwise.
Available: You really need a razor sharp knife. Razors are pretty tricky to hold when they are covered with blood.
Certainty: possible if you cut an artery, improbable otherwise
Notes:Don't bother with this method.
2)Bleach
Dosage: A bottle (litre or half litre)
Time: Hours/days
Available: Easily available
Certainty: Uncertain
Notes:Bloody painful - depends on your stomach getting corroded, the stomach acids escaping, and doing their dirty work in your vital organs. I have heard of people throwing themselves through plate glass windows in their death agonies after drinking this.

Get the Alt.suicide.holiday mug.Holiday Ass is the anomaly that occurs when everyone comes home for holiday breaks and hooks up with the same person. This is not an ongoing relationship, but is a no-strings attached hookup that occurs between two people who have in the past had latent sexual energy building since they were in 4th grade together.
This Christmas, I wonder how much holiday ass I will get- either it will be with my high school crush or my tenth grade teaching assistant....
