Courtesy of the Spec the Halls project for Christmas-themed science-fiction, a trio of holiday yarns with an emphasis on heavy use of the traditional yuletide automaton: Merry Christmas, Mr. Yao; Last Christmas; The Christmas Robots.

Full disclosure: I wrote the story at the third link, but my mom said it was probably good enough for submission to the blue. Merry merry!

Christmas on Mars
Self-linking is naughty, and will probably get this otherwise perfectly adequate post deleted.

Since this is obviously a sophisticated joke, you should explain it quickly before the post is deleted.

If that were an iron-clad rule, we wouldn't see posts with the "full disclosure" addendum on them -- but such caveats are hardly rare here. I think it's more likely that self-linking is discouraged in order to keep abuse at bay.

This post isn't meant as MeFi-abuse: it's topical and timely.

Nope, it's iron clad. Flagged.

Oh. Well, okay then. Flag on, if you feel you must.
