I’m assuming she’s talking about the Die Hard picture and doesn’t know that’s Bruce Willis, but I’m not fluent in crazy so who knows. She also called me out for “celebrating death” which I assume means she does not like my festive cat skeleton and said that it is “unbelievable that I would mock the homeless in such a manner.” This one informing our protagonist that she was “beyond childish” and her “behavior is ridiculous.” Photo Credit: Facebook/FranktheGargoyleĪpparently, this was a step too far. Wanting to add a little more of a “reason for the season” touch to her Christmas display for her next addition, the owner decided to attempt a living nativity.īut it turned out to be more of a non-living one instead. Photo Credit: Facebook/FranktheGargoyleīecause yes all you non-believers, Die Hard IS a Christmas movie. On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, a picture of Bruce Willis in Diehard the mooo-vie. Which clearly wasn’t offensive enough to warrant a new note but which was seen by “Karen” as evidenced by our savior’s own note being left “crumpled up and in my flower bed so “Karen” knows it’s on.” Our Christmas savior kept true to her word and started adding one Christmas-themed item per day.įirst up, Frosty the Snowman. And we’re pretty sure we all know which list he’s putting you on, and it isn’t the Nice one. You better watch out “Karen.” You better not cry.īetter not pout. Too bad my porch is so small, I could really deck it out. I may add one item a day now like an advent calendar. I decided to add an elf on the shelf and leave a note back that the elf is always watching. Got a new note wanting to know if I think I’m funny. Because just as predicted, Karen left another note. Lucky for us this is the gift that keeps on giving. I like him even if he’s not so great at warding off evil KarensĮvil spirits, maybe. Frank is very heavy and he doesn’t get moved and 2. I’m pretty sure that this is not what they had in mind and I look forward to the future note stating as much, but 1. She accompanies the post with the following caveat: In a Facebook post that has gone viral with thousands of likes, comments, and shares, Frank’s owner posts the following photographic evidence of her now Christmas-compliant gargoyle decked out as Jolly Old St.Nick (& I don’t know what could possibly be more in keeping with the Christmas spirit than this): Photo Credit: Facebook/FranktheGargoyle And it is neither “appropriate” nor “in keeping with the Christmas spirit.”įrank’s owner received a note about her wildly offensive non-Christmasy gargoyle in which the author (Karen) “firmly suggested” that she “rectify the situation immediately.”Īnd Christmas has just come a little early folks. One person is facing the wrath of the neighborhood “Karen” for having a gargoyle statue on her front porch. At least according to one nosy neighbor who is here to suck the merry right out of Christmas.
Decorations, if allowed at all, must be HOA-approved.Īnd apparently? Gargoyles are NOT HOA Christmas-approved. You can’t just go decking the halls and spreading Merry little ho-ho-hos all over the place. We all just need some freaking joy.īut if you happen to live in an HOA there are certain rules and regulations that must be obeyed. My neighborhood? Is lit up brighter than the Las Vegas Strip. It’s as if Clark Griswold himself sneezed out twinkling lights and they scattered everywhere. Within weeks, Frank’s first fundraiser raised more than $80,000 for Dayton’s Foodbank Inc.And they are going ALL OUT in the decorating department. Some began to offer donations to help Starr build up the display, but Starr thought that money would be better suited to helping others. “They send their personal stories and how the page makes them laugh and helps them through a difficult time so that’s really the coolest thing for me,” she said. Weeks after she posted about “Frank the Christmas Gargoyle” and his battle with a neighborhood “Karen,” Starr said her Facebook page built up a massive following. It seemed to be something people needed after a difficult 2020. “But for whatever reason people really responded to it.” Next to Frank, there’s an army of skeleton creatures, Fiona the Hippo and a toilet covered in tinsel. Maybe some are wearing Santa hats or red or green scarves, but Starr likes her decorations to be a bit more unconventional. They all have the dressings of the holidays. “It’s kind of like an Advent calendar, countdown to Christmas so we add a new character every day,” she said. From then on, Starr’s made it a point to ensure her porch stands out, especially around Christmas time.Īs the holiday gets closer, she adds more and more quirky decorations to the display.
