I’m attached to this one, particularly because of how frustrated I get– A: untangling the lights, B: stringing the lights, and C: not having them go out as SOON as you get them hung up perfectly. I can get pretty enraged about these things.
Maybe you recall the old parody/joke Christmas song from the “Twisted Christmas” soundtrack, “The 12 Pains of Christmas”. This is a tradition at my house to play while decorating… and I crack up at the guy who is just SCREAMING about the christmas lights: ” What happened to all the extension cords?!”…… “One light goes out, THEY ALL GO OUT!” …..“FINE! YOU HANG UP THE LIGHTS!”
Been there, done that!
Remember those old lights where one burnt out bulb = the whole string going out? You had to check each bulb, one by one, to find the culprit. AND no matter which side you started on the bad bulb was always fated to be the last one on the opposite end! GRRRR indeed! 🙂
The tangle is the dying Christmas lights defense mechanism to keep you from plugging them in and causing the last great fizzle of death.
