The Holidays Are Teh Sux
September 11th, 2008 by fruitloop(Sorry for butting in on your post, but I just wanted to let everyone reading this know that the site is now for sale.. Please see my post on the front page about this… Toodles, your pal, Nutcase)
My family sucks. Wingnut’s family sucks even more. At least mine only visit once a year. Wingnut’s family comes much more often. In fact, they’ve invited themselves up for xmas. Which means they’ll want xmas dinner to be at my house. With my food. At my table.
Well, Wingnut and I have decided to boycott xmas and all other religious holidays. No more cards, no more presents, no more crass commercial shit. In fact I already told my mother the other day. I kid you not, she said, “well you still have to get something for your mother.” How the fuck old is she? FIVE? No I fucking do NOT. That’s what I hate about xmas. It’s the fucking obligatory gift giving even if you have to go into debt to buy some walmart piece o’ crap that no one wants. Fuck that shit.
She will get nothing and like it.
Now, about Wingnut’s family visiting. Fuck. Come on, we’re not a fucking hotel. We love them, but for fuck’s sake, stay home. No xmas in my house. Not one fucking drop. I’m done with it. I’m done with company too. Four fucking visits a year is too much! Go away, so I can appreciate you more. What’s the saying that is oh so true? Oh, right… there are 2 of them: Absence makes the heart grow fonder. And the other one: Familiarity breeds contempt. Too fucking true.
Your post made me think. I already been boycotting xmas. I haven’t had a xmas tree in atleast 10 years.
LOL @ your mom’s response. It crazy that’s how most people respond. I bought my grandma a 10$ necklace set from Kmart one year. She acted like she loved it to my face. But I heard her talking about it after I went to bed.
Awesome lolcat
Hey, I thought I replied to this comment already. Sorry to seemingly ignore you Colleen. Yeah, it’s time to join you and fully boycott xmas. Funny how I’ve decorated with an xmas tree for the past 8 years when I’ve been a full blown atheist. In my defense I had no religious decorations, only wintery Santa kinda stuff. Nothing Jesusy.
Gotta love the lolcats.
Yikes, Fruit!
I guess we know where NOT to go this holiday season!
As a jew, my parents have never expected the exchange of xmas gifts, or channukah gifts, or any of that commercialism, so technically… i’ve been boycotting xmas for my entire life! YAY JUDAISM, i guess!?
HA! Sorry, Miss Peach. I guess I snapped after the last visit. So, um.. ha ha… what are your plans for xmas and channukah? Mazeltav! or whatever? ha. ha. (excuse me while I go pull both feet out of my mouth.
