I hope this one isn't too much of a downer. If you're not having a good time this Christmas Eve, I'm sorry. Just remember that every kind of pain is temporary. Nothing is unfixable. And most important: Alcohol is never a solution!

That being said, if you are indeed having a good time, merry christmas to you! Or happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or whatever you choose to celebrate.

Panel 1:
G is sitting at a desk, having a video call with H.
G: ...but isn’t it strange that we call it the celebration of love when it actually separates people like no other time? I miss you.
Panel 2:
On G's screen, H is standing among their family.
H: Aww, I’m sorry. But I haven’t seen my parents in such a long time. Now you go and make sure this isn’t a sad comic. Christmas comics need to be wholesome!
Panel 3:
G is lying in front of their Christmas tree, surrounded by bottles of wine.
G: Whole ... some. A whole ... and then some. So I had a whole bottle of wine ... and then some. I see now how this might not have been what Chicken intended.
