Badvent Calendars (2017)


So, with it being December 1st (at least it is right here, right now, where I am) it's time to open the doors and floodgates to awful tat that arrives neatly packaged in boxes of promise.

I bought this year's calendar blind. Other than the general content I didn't have a clue what it contained. The box doesn't give anything away either, so this could be good, or it could be bad(vent). Let's find out...

Alrighty..
Let's get going!

Day 1.

Duerr

Lesson of the day. Although it seems there's oodles of Jam and/or Marmalade in there, it really isn't all that much, and doesn't go well over 2 slices of toast.
For the rest of the calendar I'll be sticking to 1 slice of toast.
...
FFS, not even enough Jam and/or Marmalade for 2 slices of toast.
Bah, Humbug.

I guessed right! Yay!!! This is going to be fun!

Did they use every possible ingredient in that teabag? Me thinks they are trying a bit too hard (or couldn't find a taste that they liked that hadn't been done before).

I've always wondered what a battery sounded like. Now I know. My imaginings were better...

Roll on Day #2

Suppose you could move your December breakfast rota to alternating toast/cornflakes. That way you can save up two days of jam.

Yep 25 (yes, 25!!!) erasers. This calendar comes up with the goods, even on Christmas day

The only mistake you won't be able to erase, is buying that advent calendar!

Otakupunk's doing his usual "A Shot A Day" Calendar.
He also usually plays my annual game calendar, but since I haven’t made one this year, he's having to improvise.

How dare they call that tea? That's not tea, that's just any old shit thrown together. Bleurghh!
Do the boxes all fit together to make a nice picture at the end?

I thought marmalade too. Maybe tomorrow you'll get lucky. Maybe Paddington will vist.

You'll be building a nuclear reactor soon. Just wait til North Korea come calling!

Yeah, I think the boxes make a picture. They all have a weird picture on the back, so I’m assuming those fit together, anyway!!

Some very strange brews so far.

I'm buzzing with anticipation at the next bit of the circuit!

Still calling that muck tea?

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmarmalade. Jam tomorrow would be my guess.

Breadboard. Doesn't taste nice with jam or marmalade on it.



For my Festive fetish fortune I have yet more rubber.

This one's a bit random again -
