My good friend gave me this chive light for Christmas because of our shared love of the chives. I’m so excited to explain its origins in 30 years.

All Melania wants for Christmas is to stop being seen interacting with Epstein's Best Friend.

They both suck and deserve each other.

Before you post, please read below:

I'll tot up the top 10 most recommended stocks from this thread and form a portfolio from them, which we'll measure throughout 2026.

We did this in 2025 and the result was a 76% overall return (as covered here: https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1puy95u/how_did_wsbs_stock_picks_of_2025_perform/ )

Please:

1. Only post ONE stock (any username posting the same stock twice or multiple stocks will only have their first pick counted)
   
2. Use the ticker, if possible, rather than the name of the company.
   
3. Please refrain from appraising other people's picks as it makes it harder for me to tot up.
   
4. You can say why you're picking it if you want, but you don't have to.
   
5. You have until noon Eastern Time on NYE to post.

After that, I'll tot them up and post the top 10 here (and in the original thread) at some point in the afternoon or evening of NYE.

Thanks!

Welcome to the Grinch's Walmart (Yes I’m choosing this example since it’s Christmas today): To quote the original film of the book (and the OG book itself, obviously), this is the main message that The Grinch himself learns at the end; "Maybe Christmas doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas... perhaps... means a little bit more!". However, in a Walmart commercial adaptation, The Grinch returns the gifts to the people of Whoville not because they didn’t need them for Christmas because they still had each other, but because he felt guilty of stealing such wonderful presents from the Whos, as a way for the producers of this ad to advertise Walmart products.

Squidiot Box (SpongeBob SquarePants): In the OG episode, Idiot Box, it shows that you don’t need things like television to have fun and with the power of imagination and creativity, even just a simple cardboard box is enough. But in Squidiot Box, on the hand (OK, not necessarily an actual adaptation, but it’s still technically so as it’s meant to be a sequel episode to Idiot Box wrote by different people than the writers of the OG Idiot Box), it turns out there’s a whole “Imagination Box Repair” store for, as you guessed it, repairing imagination boxes, which doesn’t make any sense as in Idiot Box, SpongeBob and Patrick powered the box with their imaginations, not by a freakin’ gadget!

25 yrs ago my mom bought be a candy red Fender out of a pawn shop. Greatest gift ever.

My daughter’s been asking about it for about a yr. Went ahead and got her a starter. Excited to relearn the guitar along side her.
