      Good point! I also omitted where they stick his head in the fireplace to, uh, "encourage" him to shit what they want. Next time I'll do a fifty-panel comic chronicling every step of this wacky tradition

    Catalonia is obsessed with crapping. We're talking about a part of the world where 'menja bé, caga fort i no tinguis por a la mort!' is a popular saying!

      Look, there are only so many Catalonian defecating Christmas traditions I can deal with at one time, all right?

    Been showing this to some of my Catalan friends, and they love it. :)

    And the whole Christmas pooing thing is weird... yet funny; how could you forget the caganer?!
