Does anyone else hate this?

While we're on the topic, I really hate buying presents for people. Who's gay stupid idea was it that you have to buy shit for them? I don't want anything for christmas, so why should I give other people shit that they probably won't want either?

Well, my holiday spirit just when down the shitter. (j/k) Yeah, I know what you mean. Not only is there nothing I want for Christmas, but I have a lot of people I have to buy for between family and friends, easily spending around $500. Thank God I don't have a GF to buy for this year.

Well I soon began to realize that the US putting up christmas lights quickly turned into me un-tangleing, stringing up, and adjusting lights while she sat there on her ass and not doing anything but criticizing everything I had just took a few hours to do. Just seems like a pain in the ass to spend hours putting up christmas lights that no one is really going to appreciate (I live on a dead end street), only to run my electric bill up and have the joy of taking the lights down and packing them up for next year. Am I alone on this? I'm not "Scrooge" or anything, but I was kind of thinking about it here at work and thought I'd make a post about it.

I totally agree with you. We don't put up christmas lights because its stupid. I don't see the point in freezing our asses off to string up some ugly lights, send our electric bill sky just so maybe one or two people will either say "oh look lights" or "man they did a shitty job" lol.

We do a put put a fake tree and I change a few things in the house, like the tableclotha nd center piece, etc but otherwise thats the only "festive" stuff we do because its pointless and Christmas wasn't started for freaking lights and santa anyway.

The only group worse than women for saying "we" but meaning "you" is the military. I can't count the number of times an officer or a chief (very senior Enlisted Navy) has used that line, then proceeds to get coffee, smoke cigarettes, and "supervise." What can I say, it's good to be the Chief!
