Autumn Barker does not endorse this snowman...


Meet Creepy Snowman. He is abnormally shaped, has almost no head, could poke your eye out with his disturbingly solid and sharp limbs, glows in changing rainbow colors in his stomach and has the words "Christmas Eve" written over his belly (why would it have Christmas Eve written on it? I could see Merry Christmas or bowl full of jelly...?) and let's not forget the glitter all over the bottom.

This is the snowman that was on my desk when I first started my job at FSTC in January 2009. It was left over from Christmas and didn't last long atop my desk. (It was agreed in the office at that time that it was a pretty creepy snowman and it was discarded.) Somehow it "magically" reappeared this Christmas and despite my protests everyone decided to display it, as a kind of joke, stating that it should be our office Christmas mascot! I agree that it's funny but there's one small problem...to display it means that it has to sit on my desk. And the negative side of it being on my desk is that everyone will think that it belongs to me and I LIKE IT. So as a compromise I will display the snowman but I will make a sign that says "Autumn Barker does not endorse this snowman. ;) Good Times

I don't endorse post-apocalyptic snowman either. It really creeped me out. But Christmas is almost here. Hopefully they'll let you remove him after that. Ewwww..... :(

Aw, come on...ugly snowmen need love too! I wonder who dreamed up this guy and why? It does make a fun story though and someone in your office likes to tease.

Sydney likes him, but also says he's "spooky"

I'll take the snowman and endorse it! I love kitschy crap like that! I have a red and gold battery-powered cat on my desk that waves as you walk by.
