I read a book about the TV show Seinfeld. It told how a lot of the story lines got written.

In AZ the airing of grievances goes 2 hours just to get through the AZ Republican Party.

(1,688 posts)1. I read a book about the TV show Seinfeld. It told how a lot of the story lines got written.
Many were from the casts and writers family, friends, and acquaintances' personal experiences. One writers father invented the holiday Festivus in 1966 as a family tradition and to be celebrated as an alternate to other holidays, not just Christmas. There were many rituals in the celebration, some of them were included in the show, some were not. One that was not included was the traditional hand-painted cardboard sign on the mantle that read, FUCK FASCISM.

My "airing of grievances" is probably going to run quite a bit longer than usual this year. 😉
