Make The Best of Your Staycation!

From The Archives...

Sorry Kids, no Disney this year. How about a staycation?

“Staycation” is a grim word. It reminds us our economy is deeply clogged in the crapper and our savings accounts are filled with pennies, tumbleweeds and broken dreams. It's also a very lame word to say. You should only use it if you're a coffee-cup-holding, morning TV host giving travel tips and trading barbs with that talkative tub Al Roker.

If you gotta partake in one of these gas-saving, budget vacays at least try something a little different... with a much more descriptive name. Here are some suggestions:

Amwaycation - Spend the week with your friends and attempt to sell them crap they don't need!

Aaaycation - Spend the week wearing a leather jacket, punching jukeboxes and busting on Potsie!

Checation - Spend the week inciting a revolutionary overthrow of other people's vacations!

Cirque du Soleilcation - Spend the week with your kids dressed in leotards and heavy makeup performing extremely dangerous stunts with absolutely no training!

Come Sail Awaycation - Spend the week rocking out to classic Styx (pre-Mr. Roboto only)!

Disobeycation - Spend the week letting the kids do very bad things: cursing, fighting, talking back, even blogging!

Dorian Graycation - Spend the week getting Botox injections on a different body part each day!

Duvetcation - Spend the entire week in bed, blasting the AC and hiding under your comforter from the cruel cruel world outside!

Flambécation - Spend the week experimenting with alcohol and fire in your own little "Myth Busters" home workshop!

Gaycation - Spend the week watching wrestling!

Kid 'n Playcation - Spend the week hosting a house party, showing off your new hi-top fade haircut and quickly fading into oblivion!

Michael Baycation - Spend the week mindlessly blowing shit up and filming it!

Monetcation - Spend the week giving the impression you're having fun!

Rachael Raycation - Spend the week cooking and eating a massive amount of really bad food!

Replaycation - Spend the week watching old vacation movies and reenacting them in your house!

Toupeecation - Spend the week wearing synthetic hair, try a different rug or wig each day!

  • You might be the only person we'll let slide, Nicole. But everyone else from here on out is TOAST.
  • You hit the nail on the head ... I stand here guilty as charged for having produced a full 2 minute package on Philly Staycations as a host for a morning news program.

    :sigh:

    Nice one, Seth! Getting laid is very foreign to me, so that's probably why I did not think of it.

    Don't forget "Laycation" -- where you get laid a lot. By strangers! At home!
