CRACKED ROUND-UP: Winter Beer Edition

Finally, after hours of brewing and three months agonizing wait, our Holiday batch of beer is ready for consumption. The next month and a half will be a drunken blur of misspelled articles and staffroom beatdowns. Happy holidays, everyone! We'll see you all again once the month-long hangover that is January rolls around.

Celebrity deaths are always good to get eyeballs on the page. Soren took advantage of this because he is a bad person and a great columnist. Bucholz Bear related some heartwarming Care Bear shenanigans while Swaim introduced Cracked's script contest winner to the world. Brockway shared his love of incomprehensible Indian cinema and Seanbaby gave out so much bad advice that it qualifies as a war crime. Dan O'Brien closed us off with a plea to make people shut up about the bullshit parts of their life. That's the closest to public service we'll ever get.
