In true pop culture fashion, people worldwide are celebrating Festivus, particularly the Airing Of Grievances. It’s beautiful, and garners a real sense of gorgeously hateful community spirit. We got a lotta problems with you, life, and now you’re gonna hear about it!

Are you completely and utterly lost, or didn’t own a television in the 90s? Well, we are speaking of the great and wise Frank Costanza from Seinfeld, and his greatest triumph in life: the creation of Festivus.

Here y’are:

The truly beautiful tradition has now translated onto ~tha world wide web~, so rather than completing the Airing of Grievances after Festivus dinner (how it traditionally celebrated), people now tell their families and friends how they’ve disappointed them via Twitter.

Here are some of our personal faves:

Now, the Airing of Grievances…or, as I call it, “Every single day in customer service.” #Festivus

my biggest grievance of 2015 to air this #Festivus is that I did NOT turn into John Cena pic.twitter.com/QqD4L8utFK

Please, if you didn’t want someone to use #Festivus, then don’t publicize it on a show that is Not funny. #Seinfeldsucks

Why do the display toilets @Lowes not have any plumbing? There should be signs warning you about that #Festivus #AiringofGrievances

The severe weather put a damper on the number of #Festivus references I was hoping to drop during the newscast.
