There's good news from the front lines in the War on Christmas. Word from Branson, Mo. (counter-revolutionary headquarters of the WoC) report that CNN forces are in retreat and the battle is reaching it's Appomattox Courthouse phase. (Too soon?)

We don't know about you, but God Damn it's gonna feel good to say Merry Christmas again. With that out of the way, it's time to focus on what totally thoughtful non-contrived gift will convey the spirit of the season to your Friday Afternoon Drinking Associate.

Not a moment too soon, here is the 2017 FADA gift giving guide:

Give the gift of Freedom by donating in that special someone's name to the Mike Flynn Criminal Defense Fund -- No, the other Mike Flynn.
This one may be more in the category of a new year's resolution, but your FADA pal spends too much time on the phone, amirite? This gift will wean him/her away from that shiny black mirror.
The Friday Afternoon Drinks Editorial team is routinely stumped finding pithy yet enlightening comments to make on vomit inducing behavior by once-beloved men in the work place. Again. And again. Annnnnd Again. Give the gift of editorial bliss by submitting your witticisms on Matt Lauer/Al Franken/Charlie Rose/Roy Moore/Donal Trump/Garrison Keillor (really? Garrison Fucking Keillor? Just, Ewww...)
Tito's. In all seriousness, Tito's.
