Speaker A:
Good morning, It's Haystack and happy national take down your Christmas tree day.
Speaker A:
Yeah, the most magical time of the year when we finally admit that Christmas is over and start to dry a drag a dry, flammable tree carcass out the front door.
Speaker A:
And look, I get it.
Speaker A:
It's.
Speaker A:
It's the 6th of January, which means the 12 days of Christmas just ended.
Speaker A:
And by the way, nobody knows.
Speaker A:
People thinks it leads up to Christmas.
Speaker A:
No, they start on Christmas.
Speaker A:
So all those partridges and pipers were technically late.
Speaker A:
Santa's already on a beach somewhere snipping eggnog out of a coconut while we try to figure out what to do with a tree dropping more needles than a porcupine in a barbershop.
Speaker A:
Look, also, if you have a real tree, it's so dry, if you sneeze too hard, the whole thing could spontaneously combust.
Speaker A:
It's a tinderbox, so try to get rid of it.
Speaker A:
Which means you know you're gonna make a mess.
Speaker A:
You start off like, oh, I'll just.
Speaker A:
I'll just gently carry it out.
Speaker A:
And then there's a bazillion pine needles in your socks and your cat and you.
Speaker A:
There's a trail through the living room like a holiday crime scene, only instead of.
Speaker A:
Anyway, it's.
Speaker A:
It's.
Speaker A:
Look, just get rid of the tree.
Speaker A:
Take it down.
Speaker A:
If it's.
Speaker A:
You know, if it's a fake one, it still needs to go.
Speaker A:
This is the day all of your decorations are supposed to come down.
Speaker A:
The wreath, the lights, the inflatable Santa who's been deflated but still in the yard for the last week.
Speaker A:
Poor guys look like he partied too hard and passed out on the lawn.
Speaker A:
Anyway, it's time to take it all down.
Speaker A:
It's over.
Speaker A:
But if you want to leave your tree up all year long, I can think of some good reasons why you should.
Speaker A:
Best way to start your day.
Speaker A:
These six jokes he's about to say.
Speaker A:
Listen up.

Speaker A:
If you're so gung ho about getting rid of wasted space in your house, just toss out your spouse.

5.
Speaker A:
That fresh pine scent can mask the smell of the drugs you're cooking in the basement.
