Yeah, I have no idea how the current is supposed to relate to the trope. The suggestion isn't all that strong but is better than nothing, so for the switch.
It gets my vote in lieu of anything else.
(Annoyed grunt)So, Seen It A Million Times used to have a picture (from this Evil Inc) that spoofed how common Saving Christmas is. Since Seen It A Million Times has been made an Administrivia page and stripped of a picture, that strip could be used here.

Either the first and last panels, or the last panel by itself, could work.
I think the last panel works on its own.
(Annoyed grunt)Agreed.
^^ Definitely.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Last panel of Evil Inc works.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?Let's go ahead and run with the last panel, then.

I don't think it needs one, unless someone's got something droll in mind.
I'd go with no caption.
(Annoyed grunt)"At this rate, you won't be seen until December 26th at the earliest!"
Moon◊Ooh, good one!
she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope Report^^ Sounds good.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"That is pretty good.
Pretty good, though I can do without the last three words. They seem like unnecessary word cruft.
16 works well, although I do agree with Adept that it can do better without the last three words.
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows."At least December 26th", as a compromise?
That'll do.
(Annoyed grunt)Any other thoughts?
Three characters talking. The only thing vaguely Christmas-related visually is that the character on the right is wearing a partial Santa suit, which probably isn't even obvious at first glance. I'll open with this one◊ of The Berenstain Bears.
