I hope Jimmy continues this type of series, just chatting with friends while creating a small part of a town in every episode.

[@flippinharmon2933]

I really hope he does a specific biome build for the next collaborative project.

[@RisingRose]

yeah, it's been very nice and cozy. kinda podcast-y vibes, and I love it. I love watching Jimmy hang out with different folks we don't usually see him hanging out with a ton outside the life series, like Tango and Skizz last time, and just kinda vibe and build stuff. Or Impulse this time around- they play a lot of the same stuff but I don't think they've played together a ton? Which I think is a bit of a shame, so I was very happy to see this episode. Plus, I stand by that Jimmy's builds have improved a good amount since when i first started watching his videos, so i'm deffo not opposed to seeing him work on more town stuff with people :]

[@_Pixelated]

Yeah, like a crazy new year or like a crazy summer!

And he can extend the town to create a whole country with different themes lol

[@aliciahipwell9634]

My family is American but we lean really heavily into our German heritage. We learned about the Christmas pickle from our German relatives. It’s an ornament that our parents would hang on Christmas Eve and whoever found it got to open the first present Christmas morning. My brother used it to propose to his wife. He put the ring on the ornament and we all pretended to look and let her find it.

[@Dyrasal]

The Christmas Pickle is not a german thing at all ... that's made up ..

[@beatdj24]

⁠​⁠@@DyrasalI live in Wisconsin. Full of people from German descent. Lots of Christmas pickle here. Google gives two answers. Either it’s a tradition from old world Germany or it originated from a random story about a German-American soldier during the cilvil war. I’ve never heard the story from the civil war before but I do know it’s been passed down from generation to generation on my 100% German grandmothers side. So 🤷‍♂️

[@Vares65]

The teleportation thing seems best. With all the time zones in the world Christmas isn't really just 24 hours, so you could combine the teleportation with getting really awesome gifts for you family. As soon as Christmas starts in like Australia you start teleporting and getting cool thing, like a fresh orchid from the Amazon Jungle, or some special food from Brazil, or some special perfume from Paris, etc.

[@RisingRose]

The timezone thing is such a good point! Wholeheartedly agree with this

[@kwowka]

You’ve got literally 48 hours of travel. Free. It’d be great.

[@Emmulah]

Plus, like they said- knowing what the best gift is isn’t the same as being able to give the best gift 😅. I bet a lot of people’s best gifts are fully unattainable and then you’re stuck knowing whatever you get them isn’t as good as it could have been

[@CFGalt]

That’s exactly what I was thinking!

[@GhoulishStorm91]

Using the time zones for an advantage is a big brain move, didn't think of that till I read it

[@Fierycascade]

For Grian's question, teleporting. Absolutely no question. Being able to visit all my friends and family on Christmas would be amazing.

[@dasffs]

My thoughts exactly. I moved to a new continent, away from my family earlier this year, (I did move to join my spouse, but still) and Christmas was kind of a big deal for us. If I could teleport to visit back home, for free, I know *I* would be the best possible present. 😎

[@100StepProgram]

Especially because knowing the perfect present doesn’t mean you can afford it, what if they want a new house or something 😂

[@MoonlitBookworm73]

9:40 The Christmas Pickle supposedly originated in Germany, but no one really knows where it came from! I believe the tradition celebrated the most in the US though. The tradition is that someone hides a small pickle ornament in the tree and everyone else has to find it. The person who finds it gets an extra present/gets to open a present early. (Depends on which one your family does) For my family, we had a package of Andes Mints and me and my sister would try to find the pickle so we could get the package. I never found the pickle, but she always shared with me so it never really mattered too much. I miss those times.

[@sappical]

I have german origin and we did this! However, instead of the pickle being hid on christmas eve, we did it in the mornings and whoever found it first got to open the gifts first.

[@catdoessomestuff3090]

I have German family and I haven't heard of a Christmas pickle until this series

[@sunnytabby]

Im german and i have never heard of the chrismas pickle before gem and kathrine,i promise you,i could ask every single person i know and they'd all look at me as if im crazy

[@lotrbuilders5041]

@@MoonlitBookworm73no, it’s not a thing at all in Germany. The Christmas pickle coming from Germany is a known myth. Wikipedia has a more likely explenation

[@sydneydenny7491]

I already love watching Impulse but he's now earned brownie points bc he likes Pentatonix 😊

[@ShinyFeesh38]

I was genuinely considering teleporting into a bank vault for Grian’s question, and was SHOCKED when he just read my mind 30 seconds later

[@misso7799]

Idk if pearl might’ve forgotten to mention, or if it’s a selective experience here in Australia, but we also get Christmas hats. They’re basically really thin coloured paper-towel-like crowns that come out of Christmas crackers. Christmas back then was much fun, everyone hanging around the BBQ in the hot sun wearing all these silly little crowns, the colours dripping down faces and necks due to sweat. Good times.

[@joegoff1895]

We also get them in the UK! Not sure abt US tho

[@MidnightCheerios]

@@joegoff1895 Christmas crackers in general aren't a thing over here. I only know about the hats and crackers from Harry Potter, as a kid I thought they were talking about, like, food crackers lol

sad to see that this series ended but hopefully there is another one next year!! Happy holidays and Merry Christmas everyone!! Hope you all have a great day and holiday!!🎄🎄❤💚💜

[@TheDeadlyPlayer_8]

Impulse was describing my Christmas intirely and Jim was like, “What?! That’s crazy! So cool!” And I was just like, “bruh” 😂

[@Ishn01]

Definitely teleportation. Knowing the best present for everyone sounds good, but that doesn't mean you can afford/provide the best present for a person, let alone everyone.

[@mothersteele3218]

I’d definitely go with the teleportation. My partners are literally on opposite ends of country so being able to spend time with both of them on Christmas would have been the best gift I could ever have asked for

[@randomaussie8498]

Pearl be honest. Our traditions are going to the beach, getting black out drunk, waking up on the sand in the morning and getting ready to repeat it on New Years Eve.

[@pathagenic1648]

Impulse deflecting the conversation deftly away from the dead people polar express was next level skill 😂😮

[@trash__queen]

Impulses sight seeing tradition reminds me of when i was little. My grandparents use to drive me around like that, and when your a kid its the best. Feels like the whole world is the north pole even if it isnt snowing

[@nikkiklosterman3373]

My whole family really loved this series 😍🎄 Thank you all for a little bit of magic, a little bit of joy, & a lot of laughter this holiday season ❤️

[@widdershinnz]

Knowing just everyone’s perfect gift is so OP, y’all’re CRAZY for wanting to teleport once a year only on Christmas. Imagine what you could do with knowing EXACTLY what someone wants-that would open so many doors for you all year round.

[@derek4710]

Can confirm, as an American, I know people who do Christmas Pickle. For Pearly's "why a pickle" it's because it's green to match the tree and just generally funny to find. Prize can be first gift or a bunch of lottery scratcher tickets

[@r_dave]

For Grian's WYR: Definitely the gift one. My sister is fantastic at picking out gifts for people, and some of the nicest, joyous, most useful things I've ever gotten came from her. I'm not very creative at all, but I like making people happy, so being able to know someone's ideal gift would really come in handy. Of course teleportation is super cool, but it being limited to Christmas Day makes it not worth it imo.

[@Eryn-oo2me]

What an amazing series Tim!! Thanks so much for all the fun ! ❤

[@isabellefuoss9737]

This was an amazing series for the season it was nice and chill ❤. Can’t wait too see what’s in store for next year!

[@RebeccaDresen]

The Christmas pickle started in Germany and has slowly spread as a Christmas tradition. If you find it you get to open 1 gift early.

[@RespecterAlexander]

Grian gave Santa a back. He’s grown so much!

[@beaniebear1122]

I hope you do this again next year. This series was very fun to watch!

[@falsterino]

It really feels like listening on a podcast which is so wholesome. Hearing other's traditions is so cool like I can imagine how would it look like and seem to feel like experience it and it is lovely. I absolutely love this series and once again Merry Christmas to all! :)

[@Animaldialogue]

Jim left out joels “big a** tree!” In the tour 😂

[@345tom]

Teleportation- a lot of peoples "best present" is going to be like buy them a house, or a ferrari or get their dead dog back. Stuff I can't do. If I can teleport, I can see a bunch of people and have multiple christmas lunches.

[@Greenriyder620]

I loved watching this series! I hope it returns next year!

[@Bookworm-re3ou]

My family do two Christmases - we host a Swedish Christmas on the 24th and an Australian Christmas on the 25th at the same location, and all the family come to both. So I wouldn't want teleportation because it doesn't help with the 24th, and travelling interstate means staying over at the house where both Christmases are located anyway. The presents one is super useful though. It kills me to give up teleportation, but Christmas Day is the one day of the year where I wouldn't even use it!

[@mattmyers8471]

Grian by far is the most mischievous one that helped build toy town

[@Fabtastick]

I love how many times Jimmy made a build and restarted it over and over again

[@Velocity_AU]

Id love the teleportation for christmas, cause I could then get presents for friends and family around the world, and deliver it like santa

[@justyouraveragenerd5152]

One problem with being able to teleport but only on Christmas day is getting stuck halfway around the world because of time zones and its not Christmas there anymore or of time zones don't matter, just forgetting to teleport home before time is up So I obviously choose best gift knowledge

[@KhloeTaylorsVersion-jt4ro]

Grian saying “wHeReS daDdY goNe?” Was actually hilarious

[@Ocean-rg8wm]

Ultimate Minecraft wish : VERTICAL SLABS

[@TheIvyShadow]

So with Grian’s would-you-rather, knowing what everyone wants and being able to teleport around the world for one night? If you pick both options you can become Santa Claus, or the next Amazon. On another note, this series was a joy to watch :)

[@Sylveon17]

So sad this is ending!! Was such a fun series!! So many lovely builds and even more amazing conversations!! Thanks for the good vibes

[@Cybercraft-lr3rc]

I FREAKED out when I heard Grians favourite Christmas movie is a muppets Christmas carol. Literally the ultimate Christmas movie.

[@nickadams1897]

Grian NEVER stimulated that you couldn't teleport you and your family together in the 'would you rather'

[@chademond]

Teleport. And diehard is 100% a Christmas movie.

I loved the wholesome podcast vibes of this series. Even if I don't celebrate Christmas it was great to get to know about how people celebrate their holidays in general in other countries. Hope to see more such series! Happy holidays everyone!

[@LTAstr0]

Ok but think about this catch with the perfect gift. Most people's perfect gift you probably could not afford.

[@noatmealcookie02]

Yayy!! thank you for returning this series!! I would rather be able to teleport anywhere in the world, I don't have much friends but I know very well those who I have, so choosing Christmas presents isn't that hard; also I'm sure my friends wouldn't mind that ability for me even if it means I'm leaving them behind for a day

[@adamhayes4691]

That was an incredibly easy would you rather. I love staying at home and spending time with my family on Christmas Day, so I’d have no need to teleport. And I hate getting presents for people because I have absolutely no idea what would be a good present for them. Also Grian, Pearl, and Impulse all together in a video with Jim for thirty five minutes!? Perfection

[@CubicCreeper7914]

Would really love to another series like this, was great fun to watch!

[@iammeandthatshowiam]

Honestly, I would go for teleportation on Christmas if I had friends internationally like this group does. You could pop in to America, Australia, England, etc. and see all your online friends that you’d normally have to pay out the nose to visit. Loved the series! It was a charming idea for the Christmas season :)

[@marting9112]

These episodes were fun. I hope you'll do something similar in the next year. It is so fun to just chill and hear you talk about random irl stuff. Best of wishes for 2024!

[@RespecterAlexander]

Yay! Grian!

[@Sylveon17]

16:00 I've been the driver in this scenario! Was just turning into the driveway and instead of turning it just drifted on. Was not fun but I didn't panic and it all ended up alright. Lighter cars are worse as they don't get good traction. Sometimes it's just better to stay home when the roads are bad!

[@qwertyuiop19283]

After watching these episodes it really got me thinking about what my favorite Christmas movie is. I’ve never really had one, but recently I’d have to say it’s Christmas in Connecticut. A close friend of mine introduced it to within the last couple of years and it immediately shot up as one of my favorites. It’s a movie from the 40’s that has a such a charm to it that I feel a lot of modern movies don’t really capture. Every character is likable and EVERY joke lands (my friend and I spent the entire month making our Discord statuses quotes from the movie). It has the right amount of cheesiness to it that anybody could enjoy!

[@bayleybee]

Teleportation hands down. The best gift I can get for my mum is specific food from Italy that she really misses from her holiday, and the best gift I can give my friends across countries is myself. Bopping around everywhere is fantastic

[@Vinaco1]

As someone who spent Christmas driving around trying to find an open grocery store, the answer is teleportation. Plus drinking with no risk of driving is a W.

[@kellerator251]

The Christmas pickle originated from Germany. It is a common tradition in my family, and it’s been passed down for generations. The elf on the shelf originated from tompten little elves with beards that would watch over the farm. To thank them, you would leave a bowl of porridge out on Christmas as a thank you to all their help. This tradition originated in Sweden.

[@connoralexander2209]

I love how pearls sleigh looked like it was being pulled by wombats

[@mindfulbynicole]

This was such a lovely, wholesome series and I loved every minute of it ❤ For 'would you rather' I would probably choose the knowledge of what to get everyone before Christmas Day just 'cause that would be so cool, as much as I love the idea of teleportation. Also, me and the family watched Die Hard on Christmas - 100% a Christmas movie for me and a great one too 😄

[@alilbirdtoldmeto]

I am American and my Mimi did the Christmas pickle thing with our family when I was little. it was an ornament and whoever found it first on Christmas got the extra gift!

[@ramblewheels2044]

This was a fun series to watch, seeing all the different the people and having a fun chill time together. The Would you rather got me thinking, specifically the teleportation one. With Christmas Day starting and ending at different times around the world, when would your power begin or end? Would it be dependent on the place where you live? Or would it include all the time that is perceived as Christmas Day? If it’s the latter, than your power would be longer than 24 hours, starting from when the first Christmas Day begins to when the last one ends.

[@Just_some_random.Girl.]
