The worst thing about Christmas
 

Relatives who are bigger indie-rock snobs than you are who are older than you and have a bigger music collection than you do who want you to pick them out a CD.

My oldest sister is like that. Although the Gary Wilson CD I got her for her birthday a few years ago was a big hit.

This year I've played it safe, I got her a book that she wants to read.

Books are a great present.

I hate looking for presents because nothing is ever good enough for who I'm buying for.
This year I bought my best friend sketch pencils and a sketch book. How boring is that? Sure she likes to draw but I'm wondering now if she'll even use them.

That's why you don't buy friends presents. It creates a mundane excercise which you both don't care fore, but still continue to do. Girls are big on this, I never understood why. They go through the hassle of buying a present for most of their friends when they really don't want to, and really shouldn't be.

The worst thing about Christmas, in fact, is THE SAME FUCKING 6 FUCKING SHIT AWFUL FUCKING SONGS THAT ARE FUCKING PLAYED IN EVERY FUCKING SHOP THAT I FUCKING WELL FUCKING GO FUCKING INTO.

I'm angry about it already.

my friends and i just exchange silly gifts and shit
sometimes the chronic can be a wonderful present
i dont really put much thought into gifts unless its for someone i really care about
bought my girlfriend a chanel cuff bracelet for christmas
similar to this one


im pretty sure she'll like it, but girls are super picky about this kind of shit
keeping the reciept just incase

Believe me, it's nicer than having a buncha mullet-headed mechanic cousins/relatives that you have NOTHING in common with. Its like as soon as they hit 18, theire moustaches suddenly appeared.

For me, the worst thing about Christmas is knowing that while I am having a nice visit with my fairly hip parents, a good friend of mine will be elsewhere sitting at a family table with a lit up birthday cake with candles on it that says "HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS" in the frosting.


No, wait. That's what I love most about Christmas!

very true.

i'm still having nightmares from when i did some december holiday work somewhere many years ago. each day they had a loud playing radio tuned to one of those stations that plays the same 15 fucking songs every fucking hour, just only in a slightly different order each time.

from the dozen of christmas songs there were a few tunes that particularly pissed me off, like mariah carey's "all i want for christmas..." and paul mccartney's "wonderful christmas time". it was so bad that it was almost a relief when they played band aid or wham instead. :rolleyes:

More than the joyous sacrificing of goats during christmas dinner with an entirely caped Clone family?

i hate everything about christmas.

EDIT::.pokkeherrie: Ha

Hahaha, this isn't a "friend" though. This is my thought twin bonded instantly best friend.
I just suck at buying presents.

Fuck returning it. If she doesn't want it I'll have it. It's pretty :D

Merry Christmas!!

I would probably get bored of that thing in about an hour. I don't have the energy to flail my arms around all day.

Yeah really. If you want to get a gift for a friend, throw a party and do a secret santa.

I just get presents for people that I spend Christmas day with.

Secret Santa sucks balls. I did it last year with some good friends and their good friends. Ended up getting someone I hardly knew.

I find it sad that people are ONLY generous during Christmas, because they feel obliged to otherwise they'd be call cunts. Why can't people donate to charity in the middle of June?

Another thing I dislike about the holiday: getting ugly clothes that I hate from my Aunt who I'm not particularly fond of.

The worst thing about Christmas is not
having family and friends to sit around the christmas tree with while passing out presents and getting high.

Oh yeah, and not having any towels around to wipe up the knocked over eggnog.

I was created by a laboratory so I don't have any family.

So I hope you all will be my friends.

WooHoo!! Yeah!

Can we get high, too?

All right!!

<popeye theme music>

Man, I'm so high right now.

Get her some Sebadoh CD's.

I hate x-mas due to the fact that not enough thought goes into buying presents, and very unoriginal gift are given.We need more originality and well thought out gifts.

christmas?

what is this thing you speak of?

y'all should just stop complaining

Sorry, I feel like a right loser now in front of all you grinches but I LOVE CHRISTMAS. It is so super cool, I just hang out with my family (and especially my brother) drinking beers and eating lots of good food and everyone is in a good mood for once.
It's so JOLLY.

The only thing I truly dislike about Christmas is the tendency for some people to turn their houses into shrines to the creator of the neon light bulb.

I wish people would realise that the shops are only actually closed for two days; therefore, there's no need to purchase two months worth of provisions, some of which will still be knocking around at the back of the larder at Easter.

Oh dear God. I was thinking of Slade and Wizzard (both of whose throats I will actually slit if I ever meet them), but that Paul McCartney song is utterly abysmal. I used to really like that Pogues Christmas number, but it does me noggin now precisely because it's played forever at Christmas.

One good thing about Christmas is that I get to crack out the festive efforts by Low and V/VM.

Yep....stuffing your face with family is the bestest thing about Christmas...little sausages wrapped in bacon and a tub of cheeselets and I'm happy.

The worst part about Christmas is the entire day. I'm giving 2 presents and that's probably what I'll be recieving as well. Fuck this lame-ass holiday. THANKFULLY, I won't have to see my parents.

The purpose of this thread was to unload a bit and complain. Yeesh!
Thanks for your valuable insight, Pollyanna.

How are the preparations going for your Christmas Day address to the board, oh great rep king?

By then I expect to have been usurped.

I hope your usurper will be gentle with you.

The Wyrst thing about Christmas is when you buy that ungrateful bitch a fuckin Ipod and out of the blue she stops returning yr phone calls, and then you have to return the Ipod but you find it embarrassing and painful so you wait and hope for her to call so you can wyrk things out, but you know deep down in side that it's not gonna happen, and you just want to kill that broad.

cup of tea?

Yes, Rich, join jon boy and I for our afternoon tea session.

Perhaps you might care for a mince tart?

I brought my home-made strawberry jam.
