9 writers on the holiday-themed pop culture moments they think about a lot
Photo: Snap Stills/Shutterstock I Think About This a Lot is a series dedicated to private memes: images, videos, and other random trivia we are doomed to play forever on loop in our minds. In honor of the season and I Love the Holidays!!!!! — our week dedicated to holiday excess — we asked writers to share the holiday-themed pop-culture moments they think about … a lot.
The song “Dominick the Donkey” Last Christmas, I gave 23andMe my DNA. The very next day they gave my heritage away by revealing a shocking truth: I’m only 8.3 percent Sicilian. My name is Crissy Milazzo — but it should really be Crissy McMajority Irish, as that is my genetic truth. Still, my suburban New Jersey upbringing demands I reflect on “Dominick the Donkey.” Or as my dad called it, “that stupid song about the paisan donkey.
The Princess Unicorn toy from The Office The Office’s “Moroccan Christmas” is my favorite holiday episode for obvious reasons: Phyllis shoves baby Jesus in a drawer , Meredith’s hair catches fire, Michael shares his recipes for a One of Everything and Orange-Vod-Juice-Ka . And yet, I find myself thinking about the enigma that is Princess Unicorn year-round. She’s everything you’d want to be: half-girl, half-unicorn, owner of a sharp horn that “can pierce the sky.
When I first watched the music video and saw Mariah wearing that legendary dress, frolicking in the snow, I thought to myself, Can a gal like me, ever? I also saw her perform the song live, in the dress, and fell in love with the look even more. Back then, it wasn’t as easy to find such a costume. There was no Leg Avenue or Yandy.com creating cheap versions of every character costume in existence.
One of the parts that pops up in my head the most throughout the holidays and the rest of the year is when Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello are tasked with making Christmas cards. Annette explains she’s making the Christmas cards using “the stencil process,” with a tree stencil and a toothbrush and a screen and a cup full of green paint. “I hope you remember to wash that toothbrush before you wash your teeth, though,” warns Pee-wee.
