No snow here, so I look to these instead.

I see Tubby's influence... And Niki, have you seen the remake of Funny Games? One of the two intruders keeps objecting to being called Tubby by his companion. Was that so (in German, I mean) in the original? |

I used to love Calvin & Hobbes - had lots of books of their stuff, but I think they all disappeared during house moves over the years, unfortunately. |

Ramsey: No, I didn't see the remake. And I don't remember any "Tubby" references in the original, but it just gives me an excuse to watch it again. Christmas needs a bit of cruelty. |

That's brilliant, Niki! Thanks for sharing. I can definitely see shades of Tubby's brand of comedy in there... |
