Happy Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas

our neighbors think we are weird

This is a drawing of our door, and we have photographic proof:

The scary face that looks like it's eating the turkeys is from Halloween ... the turkeys are from Thanksgiving, identified top to bottom, left to right: Rambo Turkey, Pretty Turkey, Crappy Turkey, Trogdor Turkey, O.G. Turkey, Demon Turkey, Zombie Turkey, Christmas Turkey and Mawrkey. We had people over for Thanksgiving, (for which Yuko made spiral-cut honey ham slow-cooked in apple cider and brown sugar, string bean casserole, sweet potato casserole, mulled apple cider, stuffing, salad and George made garlic mashed potatoes - and for dessert John made pumpkin pie and Yuko made apple pie) and had them all make hand-turkeys for the door, which you see above and further above. It was a good time.

A few weeks later, Yuko and I were in the living room watching West Wing when we heard some voices from out in the hall.

"What the hell is wrong with your neighbor's door?"

"Omigod, I know, right? I have no idea."

We laughed so hard. After Christmas and the New Year we're going to put a Santa hat on the monster's head and a champagne glass in his mouth. This door is great.

Also! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Hannukah, Happy Kwanzaa, and whatever else you guys celebrate. Have some good times! See you in a couple of days. ;)

I feel ashamed of the wreath my door is sporting now! D:
lol Really, neat idea I should try that sometime. The only time I ever did something that odd was when I covered my bedroom walls with news paper comics. Mostly Baldo, Zits, and Garfield. From ceiling to baseboard. Ah... good times. Happy yule! Or whatever!

I would be ashamed of this(what with my lack of decorating,) but I'm drinking pineapple moonshine spritzer so I'm about even.

...when you've confused the hell out of your neighbors. ;)

Haha, that's such a great idea for Thanksgiving! I will definitely have to do that next year. :D Awesome door.

So not only can she fit in a dryer and draw but she can also cook, probably use a computer, be used as a makeshift weapon, frighten children and small animals, be used as a unit of measurement and who knows what other amazing uses?

Perhaps Yuko is that rare rare thing? A genuinely useful person!?

I wish my neighbors had a door that cool. =/ But they're all old and lame.

For anyone who reads Megatokyo, we now know what Largo's "Cool Thing" is. It's Yuko!! For anyone who does not read MT, you should. (Shameless plug)

As for the door, that is classic. Only a true genius, or a four-year-old would come up with something like that. And it just so happens, my next-door neighbors just happen to have a four-year-old on hand. They have: a stocking and a raven made of construction paper, and two "wreathes" made from paper plates. One is definitely a Christmas wreath, but I cannot tell what the other is that is underneath it. I think it is something for Thanksgiving. I definitely remember there being a hand turkey on there.

I think you should keep going with the decor for St. Valentine's Day and St. Patrick's day. And maybe even Easter.

So now Yuko can compress her already tiny lovely body into a tiny tiny container and be light enough for someone to carry around with no signs of exertion?

AMAZING!

But yeah I'd buy one of those cool things if it had a Yuko in it lol. Then being such a nice bastard I'd set her free and have my throat torn out by an angry midget XD

Dude, you gotta reel it in a bit ...

Yes massa I'll go back to shooting zombies on the zombie farm

You are entering the vicinity of an area adjacent to a location. The kind of place where there might be a monster, or some kind of weird mirror. These are just examples; it could also be something much better. Prepare to enter: The Scary Door.

I approve of your door.

Happy Non-Denominational Winter Solstice Oriented Celebrational Period!

Christmas Turkey bring cheer to all the good girls and boys, and is obviously the best.

Far better than that MAW turkey by any stretch of the imaginatination.

Also I'm tipsy commenting. Take THAT Ananth and Yuko.

damn now i'm hungry and awesome door oh and can i get a recipe for the ham it sounds great and i'm gonna have to try it next time we get a ham

(reply to this comment)

That's such an awesome door. I wish people around here would do stuff like that more often, but alas, I live in LA and we'll probably get crack/pot heads at the doors "admiring" the deco. Or just have it rudely taken off by management and fined a ridiculous amount of money, who knows.

That food sounds absolutely scrumptiously delicious. Hope you guys have a great new years!

I haven't laughed that hard in a while - that door is AMAZING. Post a picture after you put the Santa hat on it!

This is also a fair incarnation of what I've always imagined Domo-kun to actually be like.
Rambo Turkey save us all.

(reply to this comment)

I'd be very scared of that door. That's like a crazy turkey death squad guarding your door.

The rambo turkey will shoot you with a bow and arrow(with explosive tip), the trogdor turkey will burninate you, followed by O.G. turkey pulling an AK-47 outta nowhere lighting you up like a christmas tree, to which christmas turkey would proceed to bombard you with presents and coal, all while demon turkey mutilates you, zombie turkey devours you, pretty turkey paralyzes you (because it's too damn pretty), and the crappy turkey will crap on you. Not necessarily in that order.

Perfect to scare off solicitors though!

It's like you were channeling the spirit of Assume Vivid Astro Focus!

Yay Prettyturkey!!

I'm amused that i apparently made the smurfette of the group...

The maw is still my favorite.

^^ all you need is a shamrock and a weird V-Day heart, and you're all set....maybe an Easter egg too

WEST WINNNNNNG

(reply to this comment)

Wow, that door is the stuff of genius. what i really like are the different species of turkey (trogdor turkey is the best :P). I'm new to the comic but I enjoy what you are doing.

Domu Kun <3 Turkey Dinner :3

(reply to this comment)

I am so going to do that. Because my imagination is just not as uber as yours.

Idea! Fan submission of holiday door pictures! Who can keep it going for a whole year? ^_^

Well done. Love the comic.

(reply to this comment)

My roommate made a giant construction paper Red Robot for my door when I passed my robotics class. It never occurred to me to dress him up for holidays... UNTIL NOW.

(reply to this comment)

Whats the recepie you used for the ham? i wonder if it works for turkey...

(reply to this comment)

TROGDOR TURKEY!!!?

(reply to this comment)

This was amazing! My roommate and I were really sad when you took this down.

(reply to this comment)

...I think I love you all forever. <3
