|
Come one, come all! There's a sale! Buy one tribal mask, get a spear of dubious origin half off!
|
|
Dad?
|
|
|
No, little lady. I am not your father. But I can say that if I was, I would strongly encourage you to try these authentic ancient kimonos!
|
|
I don't know what this is about, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to hate it when I find out.
|
|
|
A tough customer, indeed! But look here! I have a Himalayan Singing Bowl that just howls to be purchased by such a discerning patron!

|
I was really hoping that, just once, a strange character would show up in Springfield without being a caricature of something awful.
|
|
I'm sorry that I couldn't make a sale, but I'm glad you stopped by! Tell all your friends about us!

|
|
Excuse me. Can I talk to you?
|
|
|
That depends! Are you here to inquire about our line of stained-glass teapots from the early fourth dynasty?
|
|
|
No! I want to know what makes you think you can come in and take my street corner!
|
|
I do not fully understand your question, good sir.
|
|
This is my corner, where I promote our company's crackers. And you are standing on my cracker crack and peddling inappropriate cultural knick-knacks!
|
|
There's no need to be hurtful.
|
|
|
Just...move along!
|
|
|
I had planned to do that anyways. This sales expedition can't be limited to just one spot!
|
| If The Ghost of Christmas Present is owned: Task: "Make the Ghost of Christmas Present Sell Out". The job takes 4 hours.
|
|
Sir, did I hear you right?
|
|
|
That depends. What did you hear?
|
|
|
I heard you say that you have authentic relics from the holy land at a steep discount.
|
|
|
That we do! Whether it's a "Shroud for Touring", or a wall so discounted you'll be wailing at it, we have it all!
|
|
I don't know which is worse. The puns, or the fact that you're making money off religious heresy.
|
|
|
That's what I call a two-for-one special!

|
|
I give up.
|
|
|
What's wrong, my future customer?
|
|
|
I don't get your deal at all.
|
|
I mean, you annoyed Lisa, so that's a point in your favor. But even I know that you're not exactly what we've come to expect from a spirit taken from "A Christmas Carol".
|
|
|
Yes, I get this question a lot, and I'll be happy to explain, if you're willing to wait until I finish up our latest promotion.
|
|
Okay, I'll bite. What's the promotion?
|
|
|
Buy one ancient artifact purloined by a colonizer and get it gift wrapped for free.
|
If The Ghost of Christmas Present is owned: Task: "Make the Ghost of Christmas Present Wrap Complicated Presents". The job takes 4 hours.
If Bart is owned: Task: "Make Bart Watch in Fascination". The job takes place at Appropriations Cultural Artifacts and takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
Thank you! We look forward to your business once more!
|
|
That was awesome. But seriously, what's your deal?
|
|
|
Well, my lad, for decades, people have read Dickens' original text and interpreted "The Ghost of Christmas Present" to mean "The Ghost of Christmas Right Now".
|
|
|
But the hacks behind this year's Christmas Event chose to read it to mean "The Ghost of Christmas Gift".
|
|
But what's with your weird jargon and cultural appropriation jokes?
|
|
|
That's just icing on the fruitcake.
|
|
|
Fruitcakes don't have icing.
|
|
|
Let it go, boy. It's almost Christmas. Everyone just wants to go home.
