Christmas Trees

So how is everyone bringing their christmas trees home from the shop? I found this on LS1tech, but good thing I got a 300zx to use to do this with.

So, last night I went to bring the tree into the house and set it up. But I had it in a bucket of water, and it froze. FML.

man ever since my sister stopped putting up the tree,
the floors have been cleaner, there's no annoying lights on when i have to pee in the middle of the night, no tinsel on my socks, random shards of glass that she didn't clean up after breaking an ornament, no man trying to get the presents from under tree without getting stabbed by fake turf.

god i love it

Real trees are way better for the environment.

I get mine a day before Christmas for 5 bux at home depot or superstore (family comes a day or 2 before Christmas) . I once brought a tree back in my Civic hatch and was still finding pine needles a year later.
