Canofceleri Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Anyone else hate this bullsh*t? Christmas sucks, the Holidays suck. I even hate Birthdays, it's bullsh*t. I swear, all my friends at this time of year try and give me and each other really cool presents and where does that leave me? I don't want to spend money on their asses because of some bullsh*t religious holiday. And why does anyone deserve material goods for being born? I hate holidays. f*ck!

The Killa Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 For me being in college, getting free clothes / money is an absolute godsend. I don't see a reason to whine like a pussy because you're getting free stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDude5000 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Is it worse to get stuff when you don't want it, or have virtually every one you know f*ck up every single plan you had for this month? I have friends who screwed up plans to go to movies at the last damn minute, people who screwed up buying Christmas presents, even the damn Fed-Ex morons botched the shipping for this awesome Terminator stuff I ordered on eBay. All in all if you think you have a sh*tty week, you have no f*cking idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bauer Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 You are a very angry, pessimistic person. But yeah, I told my family not to get me a damn thing. I just hope they'll understand when I arrive at Christmas empty handed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saggy Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Dude, I really hate getting people gifts. The reason why isn't because I'm cheap or anything like that, but I'm really self-conscious about what I get people. I know that sounds kind of ridiculous, but I don't think I've ever given a gift to someone that they actually liked. In any case, I just sort of, stopped getting people gifts a long time ago, and I don't really think about it that much anymore. People don't really come up to me and ask me for a gift, so I mean, why worry about it? I do hate the holidays though, but it's not really just the holidays, it's just what it brings out in people. I mean, this time of year just seems to make people either try to put on the biggest, fakes smile possible, or turn them into the biggest asshole they could be. There are people from the salvation army outside of every store ringing their god damn bells relentlessly--why do they think this makes me want to give them my money? You can't seem to walk around anywhere without being bombarded with the fact that it's the holiday season. Also, I hate the fact that it is now designated, "The Holiday Season. Not the PC aspect of it, but the fact that it just seems to be blending in to each other. I mean, it's like once you get done with Halloween crap, you have to do Thanksgiving, and before you're even done with that people are trying to shove Christmas down your f*cking throat, until you're sitting there on Christmas morning and they're already f*cking advertising Valentines Day as if it were the f*cking New Year! I'm not going to bitch about the corporate drive or anything like that, but it's just like the sh*ttiest f*cking time of the year. Why don't we have this sh*t in the middle of summer, you know? I mean... Here's the crazy sh*t, I know people that were buying kiddie pools and super-soakers in the middle of Winter just to take advantage of the holiday sales. It makes me wonder what's next after the 4th of July. I mean, if the holidays really are just the "corporations" like everyone thinks, they should be milking more than just the 4th of July. Can you imagine it... The Holidays, year round. We're going to get to a point, where we're going to have to have a day that is not a Holiday as a vacation, and it will be the most festive time of the year. Afterwards everyone will go back to their job as shopping-mall Santas and Elves and Salvation Army bell-ringers. Then once we've exhausted our resources or we've all suffered a stroke from the Christmas cheer, we'll repeat the same cycle all over again, buying each other gifts only once a year due to our strife. So I say f*ck The Holidays, f*ck opening presents and cooking turkeys. The only thing it ever brought my family was undue stress and empty wallets. What's wrong with not spending any god damn money on elaborate feasts and presents, maybe spending about $50 for a pizza and an 8th of pot or a six-pack and getting wasted while watching cable TV all day? Oh, but NO, you can't do that either, but you're f*cking dealer is stuck doing sh*t with his f*cking family or the god damn stores are f*cking closed. Anyway, I just generally try to sleep through the actual holidays now. It's still sh*tty going through the holiday season though. I mean, it might as well be Christmas today.

Torcidas Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I spent too much money. That's probably my greatest concern over the holidays as well. I gotta drop 200 AT LEAST for like, 4, 5 goddamn family members. Not to mention you can't find sh*t inside the stores anyway. I usually end up purchasing sh*t I could easily bootleg (DVDs and such), or I just go for the gift cards. f*ck all, buy whatever you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otter Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I left it too late and instead of a $300 ring, I ended up buying a Sony digital camera.

Digïtál £vîl Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I understand what you mean about the commercialism of "holidays". I really hate it. I'm a college student who is obviously tight on money and this time of year is a pain in the ass for me. All I can hope is that I some how balance out in my costs and what I receive (but I highly doubt it). Things I spent my money on: I had to buy my boss a birthmas (birthday/christmas) gift. - $40 A gift for an office secret santa thing. - $15 Gifts for family (7 family members). - $160 Gift(s) for girlfriend - ??? (yeah I haven't bought anything yet because we are going "shopping" when we get back) Cost of parking at the airport. - $50 And cost of housing my cat at a pet hotel for a week. - $56 I'm sure there is much more that I am not considering, but I'm packing for my flight, so I can't be assed. It all adds up and I really hate it. I have rent, insurance, and tuition I need to be paying for. Not holiday presents for people!!! Thank god I lucked out on buying a ticket for flying up. That would have been much more in cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otter Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I'll tell you though, my favorite part of the hollidays is giving presents. Every year, I have a large chirstmas party and get something for everyone. I don't spend much money; that's not the point. I just love giving people stuff. Those wacky Natives and their potlatches - they had the right idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just another thug Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I'd rather not have the holidays happen. I'm flat broke and feel like an ass for never getting anyone anything. Then I receive things that I don't really want or need (or really can't take back to my dorm). I wish I could just fast-forward to the 28th so I can be on my way to NYC.

Claude GTA3 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Did any of you know that THE ORIGINAL Santa Claus wore a Green coat and hat.

guilty.by.association Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Hmm i do agree with you, and we get "free" gifts but we spend more on buying them than we receive. I don't see Christmas as religious at all, i know it is but i'm not into religion myself. I don't really give a sh*t about Christmas, it's nice but i don't get excited or anything. The food is good i guess but then you just get fat.. We all lose in the end. Christmas was only good when Santa Clause was around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRoper Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Images of Santa Claus were further popularized through Haddon Sundblom's depiction of him for The Coca-Cola Company's Christmas advertising. The popularity of the image spawned urban legends that Santa Claus was in fact invented by Coca-Cola or that Santa wears red and white because those are the Coca-Cola colors. In fact, Coca-Cola was not even the first soft drink company to utilize the modern image Santa Claus in its advertising – White Rock Beverages used Santa in advertisements for its ginger ale in 1923 after first using him to sell mineral water in 1915. Even though Coca-Cola was not the first to do this, their massive campaign was one of the main reasons for why Santa Claus ended up depicted as wearing red and white, in contrast to the variety of colours he wore prior to the campaign. source So yes and no... But mostly yes. Interesting for sure. $$$ MAKE MONEY WITH NEOBUX $$H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I only got presents for people the other day. I don't mind Christmas at all, it wasn't even a Christian holiday until they took over it. The uh I forgot the name of them, but they celebrated 'christmas' because they had nothing better to do in winter and would just get drunk/give presents and generally it was just one big party. The Romans then put a spin on it, and they celebrated it as well. And then well Christians had the holiday in January, but nobody ever caught onto it. So they moved it to December, when they knew people were celebrating for the hell of it anyway. Also, wasn't Jesus born in November? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsuo2501 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 I don't celebrate Christmas myself, only thing I do gift wise is me and my girlfriend each buy eachother one thing, and we go eat with my Conservative ass family. So the whole free gifts/money doesn't really fall into my 'Holidays'. But whatever, to each his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
