I think it may be coming up on Xmas in the Wapsi calendar just like ours...

I think you're right.

I'm old and un-hip-enough to have so little familiarity with anime that I can't even begin to guess which two anime characters they are referring to. Presumably one is thoughtless and the other is needlessly loud or is prone to anguished self-criticism. Any suggestions as to who these are, or what their Attributes are?

(I'm also old enough that "they" for Santa is a bit jarring. I wish spoken English had a unique word for third-person-animate-gender-neutral, as opposed to third-person-animate-plural (and third-person-inanimate-plural as well). Lumping all of these into "they" is so imprecise... :( )

You would have to narrow it down to a year to find out which annoying anime girl they are talking about, and even then most years would have multiple candidates. :ugeek:
I'm partial to Lum, and the extended cast of Urusei Yatsura for my candidates, but there are those who would find candidates in Macross.
