This tape gives us a rare seasonal snapshot: winter in Bootstuck. And, true to form, it’s not exactly what you’d call conventional. Dave is apparently wrapped in Christmas lights—possibly by accident, possibly as a coping mechanism—and the others decide to just leave him like that. As a display. A living, blinking reminder that Bootstuck celebrates the holidays... differently.
We’re also introduced to Caleb, the town’s unofficial lumberjack. He chops and stacks wood around the township like a festive squirrel—but here’s the twist: they don’t burn it. Not for warmth, anyway.
Instead, Bootstuck relies on a woman named Rita. Described as heavyset and—let’s say—generously cozy, she arrives during the cold months to provide communal body heat via prolonged snuggling. This is apparently the primary method of winter survival.
At this point, I can’t help but feel like I’m being pranked by a very elaborate, very rural performance art piece.
I just want one tape that explains anything.
