Holiday Cards See Nostalgic Twist

Sparked by a handwritten note marked “How do you ask a Ninja for a free hug?”, Twist Image disseminates its take on the holiday card, which is less holiday card and more video collage of happy 2006 moments. Some inclusions: the “free hugs” guy, the live-action Simpsons intro, Animator v. Animation and the viral OKGo treadmill video.

Lee Hopkins claims this is the best Christmas card he’s ever seen. While we think those are strong words, we’re inclined to agree, and not merely because they remembered to include Ask a Ninja (which automatically grants all-star status). We wish the cats at Twist an equally happy holidays.
