What's a boardinghouse?

Hey, Arnold, you know a lot about this Christmas thing?

It's kind of like the Ari Apartments, actually. But instead of getting an entire apartment, you rent a bedroom. The living room, kitchen, and dining room are all shared with the other residents. I lived in an old boardinghouse, so it didn't have a whole lot of people living there.

I'm no expert, but I know some stuff. I'm guessing you came from somewhere without Christmas?

Ohhh! That sounds kinda fun!

Yea, I'm kinda in the dark about all this stuff... Would you mind answering a couple of questions for me?

Belated comment, but LOL at "Hey, Arnold". XD adultlike_child December 14 2009, 22:04:28 UTC

Yeah, I get the feeling that it was.

I'll do my best! Do you want to meet somewhere? I was thinking about going out to take a look at the gardening center. You could join me if you want?

Heeeeeeeeee ^__^ catslooklikeme December 14 2009, 23:13:57 UTC

That sounds good! I appreciate the help! I'd kind of like to know what this 'santa' thing I'm supposed to emulate is... And Danny was talking about someone getting nailed to wood... what's that all about?

^^ Thread this or just continue here? adultlike_child December 15 2009, 12:51:01 UTC

Well, Christmas is supposed to be a time you show friends and family how much you love them through exchanging gifts, singing carols, and spending time with them.

Parents tell their kids story about Santa who brings gifts for good kids and leaves coal for bad ones. The guy getting nailed to wood is Jesus who was born on Christmas. The latter story gets kind of complicated.

I'm down for anything! Your choice! catslooklikeme December 15 2009, 18:05:24 UTC

Ok that first bit sounds good!

...but it must be complicated, because I'm confused again about how there can be two different stories involved with this holiday with two completely different people.

...unless this Jesus guy and the Santa guy are really the same person? Ya know, dual personas, like a superhero?

I'll set up a thread in a minute. Sorry for slow. adultlike_child December 21 2009, 14:34:44 UTC

Like I said. It's kind of complicated.

And, no, not really.

I'm gonna be heading to the shops to see if I can find a gardening center. I'd be glad to try and explain if you're willing to help carry stuff.

No worries! catslooklikeme December 21 2009, 20:16:15 UTC

Carry?

Uhm, yea, I can help with that, no problem!
