Supernatural Christmas Song "All I Want For Christmas is Food"

Because I had so much fun with the Harry Potter parody, I decided to go for a holiday theme today and a different fandom. So sing along to the tune of Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas is You as Dean from Supernatural:

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS FOOD

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don’t care about the demons
Out hunting for you and me
I just want some apple pie
And maybe to just stay alive
Make my wish come true oh
All I want for Christmas is food

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need, and I
Don’t care about the angels
Satan, Death, or changelings
I don’t want to hang a vampire 
There upon these rusty chains
Sam please just make me happy
Give this up for just one day

I just want to take a break
Eat some pie and a giant steak
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is food

I won’t ask for much this Christmas
I won’t even wish for Dad, and I 
I just wanna keep on eating
And forget that I’m so sad

I won’t stop at the gas station
And pick up some pointless gift
I won’t even spike some punch
To knock myself out, then get sick

‘Cause I just want some food tonight
Stuffing my face, it’s oh so right
What more can I do
Oh, yeah, all I want for Christmas is food

All the monsters grinning
So bloody everywhere
And the sound of children’s 
Screaming fills the air

And everyone is dying
I hear my mother crying
Sam just take a break
Please do this for me
Won’t you please slice this pie for me quickly

I don’t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I’m asking for
I just wanna eat some pie
And not lock the hotel room door

I just want to eat all day
And pretend that I don’t know
That we are surely doomed
Yeah, all I want for Christmas is food

All I want for Christmas is food


And maybe just a freakin break Sam. Here, have some pie.

Harry Potter "Hello" Adele Parody

Please don't copy this or use this without my permission. Please see my republication policy.


I had a lot of fun with this. Unfortunately, I can't really sing, so the text will have to suffice

Here is the Harry Potter parody of Adele's "Hello":


Voldemort: 
Hello, Harry
I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to see
If you can beat me honestly
They say that you’re supposed to kill me
But you ain’t done much killing

Hello, can you hear me
I’m in Malfoy Manor dreaming about who I used to be
When I had a nose and could sneeze
I’ve forgotten how it felt before the curse backfired at me

There’s such a distance between us
And yet none at all

Hello from the pureblood side
I must’ve tried a thousand times
To kill Potter, but he never dies
And it don’t matter how many times I try

Hello from the Dark Lord
I’m mostly just really bored
And I want to kill some muggles and cats
And I don’t care how you feel about that anymore

Hello, sss-haassh-see
It’s so typical of me to talk in Parseltongue I’m sorry
I hope that you’re ill
Did you ever make it out of the woods where nothing ever happened?

It’s no secret that the both of us
Are running out of time

Potter & Friends: 
So hello from the Potter side!
We must’ve tried a thousand times
To tell you Potter will win in the end
So go on, send all the deatheaters in!
Hello from the D.A.!
We’re gonna make you pay
For killing all our friends and family
And we want to see you fully destroyed evermore

Ooooohh, evermore
Ooooohh, evermore
Ooooohh, evermore
Evermore

James, Lily, Sirius, Remus, Snape, Fred, etc: 
Hello from the other side
We didn’t make it out alive
‘Cause we stood up to you and your army of death
But when we did you seemed to be one step ahead.
Hello from the Order
At least our boy destroyed you
And we know that he will stay strong
And he will be the Boy Who Lives on and on evermore


Hope you enjoyed it and sang it in your head, or out loud, whichever!!

Living With Chronic Eczema

You brush your shirt off to get the tell-tale flakes of skin off only to look down two minutes later to see a million more. This is living with eczema. Part of it anyway. Every day you struggle with the embarrassment of going out in public with your skin peeling so much you look like a zombie straight out of the Walking Dead.
It's not pretty, it's not fun. Most days I wake up scratching myself in the middle of the night, worried what it's going to look like the next day. I constantly worry that the fast rate at which I shed my skin is eventually going to leave me skinless, which is absurd, but it's what runs through my head.
I've tried every lotion, cream, and medication you can name. Natural, not: I've tried it. And yes, I even tried tanning. Nothing works. The first time I was racked with this horrible skin condition, the flare up lasted a full two years.  In that time, I saw EIGHT doctors, was allergy tested multiple times, and was tested for lupus (which included blood tests and MRIs). I was even put on dangerous medications usually used for organ transplants to suppress my immune system. NOTHING WORKED. 
Eventually, I switched jobs and the symptoms started to subside on their own. I figured it must've been something I was working with, which could've been anything because I worked at Kroger. While I was pregnant, my skin looked the best it has ever looked. And, not a month after my son was born, my eczema came back worse than before.
Now I am struggling with whether or not to even bother with another pointless doctor who will give me prednisone (oral steroids) to temporarily solve the problem and a steroid cream that won't work. In the two years I suffered before I was on prednisone multiple times and gained fifty pounds from being on that medication. Never was able to drop the weight either, which is seriously unhealthy for a 5'2" person.
So I go on. I lather lotion all over and try to keep myself from scratching my scalp, my face, my chest, my stomach, my arms, my legs. I'm crossing my fingers it goes away sooner than two years this time. It's not easy to live with, and it certainly doesn't help my battle with depression and anxiety.
There is currently little research on the causes of eczema and an even smaller amount dedicated to finding a cure. I encourage you to check out the National Eczema Association. Eczema is not a fatal disease but it is debilitating and we need a cure. Eight doctors couldn't help me. Who can?
