No Wrapped gifts, no refunds, no returns. Everybody is satisfied. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 832231That is what we do but we do it whenever we want. We like spontaneous giving. December is like any other month to us. |

Enaid User ID: 515273 United States 12/21/2009 09:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hell, I don't even have a tree. If someone helped me put it up and down, then maybe. But - pfft. I did some baking and made some silly reindeers out of candy canes. Bought some toys for tots. Bought a few obligation presents for in-laws. We will cook some cool meals and spend time together. Personal responsibility - try it sometime. Quit blaming others for your bad choices. Consequences happen. :enaid11: |

Bluebird User ID: 730536 United States 12/21/2009 09:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I guess I am different in this regard and actually like to wrap gifts. This year, the wrapping is going to be the best part I am afraid but at least it is colorful and festive. One year when the kids were little I didn't wrap the gifts and thought I would tell them they don't always come wrapped but one of them accused his brother of unwrapping all of them! Tissue paper is cheap and I tie a mean bow. It's the thought that counts. One of the most important aspects of conspiracy theories is being able to discern when there isn't one. Oh yeah, like you'd understand anyway. Where are we going and why am I in this handbasket?. . .J. Handy |

Well it seems so real I can see it And it seems so real I can feel it And it seems so real I can taste it And it seems so real I can hear it So why can't I touch it? So why can't I touch it?

That's what those Christmas bags are for! It's so easy to drop the gift in and you can use tissue paper to conceal. |
BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 844575 United States 12/21/2009 09:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Fuck Christmas. Nowhere in the bible does it say to celebrate it. When my youngest figured out that Santa makes no logical sense I stopped wrapping presents. Now I just buy them what they want and get it over with. They don't ask for much. Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 846689 United States 12/21/2009 10:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My daughter is 2. I don't know what I want to tell her about "Santa Clause." I believe in celebrating the holiday, but I don't like the Santa lie. I figured it out by the time I was 5 and didn't see the point. I'm perfectly happy and not depressed. I don't see the need for Santa. I mean, seriously, if you did the whole Santa thing when you were little, did you think Santa and God were buddies? They both can see what you are doing, know if you've been good, etc. It seems weird to me. I'm not rejecting Christmas as the celebration of the birth of Christ, but I don't understand modern Christmas. |
