Ratman2 2 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 The best part of Christmas is the 2nd of January, it's all over by then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Hate all the sentimental shite, am a Doorman and this is the worst time of the year, even the normally decent people are full of drink and stupid sentimentality. Went shopping this afternoon, shops full of weirdos buying crap they don't like, don't need and that will be taken back on Boxing Day by more ungrateful people. I opted out one year, had a huge row with an ex the week before and cancelled Christmas as far as she was concerned, I went to Church in the morning and refused to go to her dads for dinner, stayed in on my own, had a much better day .............. we split up soon after and I lost my share of 100 grand in the process, but it was worth every penny!!!! To all those who hate the commercialism of Christmas, get yourself to your local Church and see what it should be about, you never know you just might find something. Peace and love. A Edited to add, am looking forward very much to going out with the hunt on Saturday, thank you for the invitation! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fidgety 8 Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Christmas is great with the family, it's the gifts that are shit, everyone stresses about buying something, few can really afford it, and even fewer recipients really appreciate it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
