Merry Christmas ( an over rated expression I feel)
Just so I don't sound like too much of a Scrooge I'll start out by saying Merry Christmahanakwanza. Politically correct version.
Now, on to my story. This has got to be the most depressing time of the year, and what a rip-off. I spent approx. $2k on presents and all I got was a pack of t-shirts and some colonge. I realize that it's not about receiving it's about giving, but come on and give me a break. If it wasn't about receiving then people wouldn't even go to parties. They would just mail their presents to one central location and let them collect for years before they finally find their way to some city dump somewhere. So what do we really expect out of the giving season. I realize that we don't expect to receive the same in gifts that hand out but why shouldn't we. If you actually do the science of the whole thing then we should come out even. but we don't, nobody does. Which is why I'm boycotting the holidays next year. It would be cheaper to go on a family vacation than to sit through four weeks of left over dressing and stale rolls.
I'm sarting a revolution. Who's with me? CPT Pyro said he was with me to a certain degree. So lets all unite for the one cause that we can all actually benefit from. It will saves thousands of dollars per household garruanteed. I need supporters.
Fa la la la la la F#%^ this S&*%.
P.S. Martha Stewart is now an official raging alcoholic. But don't take my word for it. Read the egg nogg story here.
