"Yule boasting is an old Norse tradition of getting shitfaced at the winter solstice feast and standing up to proclaim all the great, infamous, and wildly improbable deeds you will perform in the coming year."

Screengrab from Tumblr, black text on white background. dragon-in-a-fez: this will be the year I finally convince everyone to abandon New Year’s resolutions in favour of Yule Boasting, the clearly superior tradition allow me to explain. Yule boasting is an old Norse tradition of getting shitfaced at the winter solstice feast and standing up to proclaim all the great, infamous, and wildly improbable deeds you will perform in the coming year. can range from an unlikely but technically possible claim, like “I’m going to rob 300 banks”, to something you’d have to bend the laws of the universe to actually accomplish, like “I’m going to punch a god in the dick and steal his horse”. these are not plans. they’re not even goals. they’re the things you’d do in a self-insert superhero fanfic. and honestly all I want this holiday season is for a bunch of friends to go all in on this nonsense with me and hype ourselves up in ways previously unimaginable
