Popularized by Doc, the old bar owner in The Boondock Saints, during the scene leading up to the bar fight with the Russian Mafia.

Doc, who wants the Russian Mafia to gtfo, tells asks: "Well why don't you make like a tree then, and get the fuck out!"

Valentine's Day Tree

A tree one displays in one's living room in the middle of February. Generally, very similar to a Christmas tree, but much drier. Ideally decorated with small scraps of tinsel, but having a complete set of Christmas ornaments is acceptable. An alternate method of display is to lay it on its side in the front yard.

The proper method of celebrating a Valentine's Day Tree is to stay at least 3 feet away from it and not make eye contact.

A 4th of July tree is very similar, only with brown needles instead of green.
