What are you going to do on Buy Nothing Day?

!@#$%! · 11.21.2007, 08:42 PM

confess, this has the potential of being more entertaining than your dull weekends

will you get together with friends and play games?

will you stay in bed and fuck all day?

will you get together with friends and fuck them?

will you do one of those charitable things i never think about, like feeding the homeless, clothing the poor, and saving innocent children?

or are you going to the mall to burn credit cards like a big slut?

say it. say itttttttt.

Cantankerous · 11.21.2007, 08:52 PM

if so, i plan on going christmas shopping with my mom + other family members and helping my mom get a christmas tree and decorating it and the evening will be spent lying in bed drinking whiskey with mr cantankerous.

Inhuman · 11.21.2007, 10:09 PM

I was supposed to go to a birthday party for someone I don't really get along well with, and I would be buying beer anyway if I go. So I'm just going to stay home

Dead-Air · 11.22.2007, 03:19 AM

I will use the internet to comparison shop for the very cheapest Nothing to buy, preferably with a full warranty.

atsonicpark · 11.22.2007, 03:26 AM

Cool, how about I buy a USED Buy Nothing Day shirt? Does that still count?

sonicl · 11.22.2007, 04:01 AM

I'm gonna do the same as I did on No Music Day - Carry on as if it wasn't happening.

the ikara cult · 11.22.2007, 07:05 PM

Ive been getting the emails about this since i was 15, every year.
I have about 100 Buy Nothing Days a year, i have done since before i knew about Buy Nothing Day, and after.
If it makes you feel good, go for it, im not saying it makes you a prick if you do it, i just dont think im in a position to say what its like to stop buying things on impulse

schizophrenicroom · 11.23.2007, 02:59 AM

almost every day is buy nothing day for me. tomomorrow i'll sleep until noon, attend a football game, then pretend to study.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead · 11.23.2007, 05:52 AM

SynthethicalY · 11.23.2007, 01:56 PM
