Why is there nothing to buy people?

Why am I such a terrible shopper?

Why does noone have a list?

Why does passing out cash "ruin the point of the holiday"

Yes, this needed to be a thread.

Why do people you haven't heard from in 5 years suddenly feel the need to send you something? Especially when thought you were done shopping?

I'm worried about two things. My daughter exploding due to the sheer amount of crap we ended up buying her, or that she'll ignore every last piece of loot and instead play with the box the tricycle is in.

Because everyone you know can buy their own stuff leaving nothing affordable for you to get.

Because some people dont get that the point of the holiday once youve reached adulthood is to spend time with loved ones, and give gifts to the children. If your going to give money, then just do away with the whole idea. saving them the money from buying you a gift is the same as giving them money afterall.

I hate trying to decide on gifts for adults. I told my family last year that we are done doing presents for birthdays and mothers/fathers day and just worrying about Christmas, and to pool the money together and buy like 1 expensive gift. Last year I got a new , presumebly expensive, office chair and it was a wonderful gift. My brother and I are pooling money together to get my Dad a sweet new driver.

Im genuinely excited to give these gifts, because they are things that i know they would love, but are expensive enough that they didnt just go out and buy them on their own.

Why is this fish so bad. I am so mad. When people ruin my food I want to reach out with the invisible hand of the market and strangle them.

Well, yeah. If you are giving someone fish for xmas, buying it 3 days ahead of time probably wasn't the wisest idea.

My daughter could very well be a cat in a human disguise, which would solve TLW's aquatic problem.

It is specifically this type of over reaction to messed up food that makes me want to kill people.

It's important, ok?

This is the over reaction of someone who spends a lot of money on food.

Pretty much when my Mother passed so did any kind of Christmas for me. I have few friends and no family any more. Having to start completely over with literally the clothing on my back has been hard.

I worked for UPS for three years, that's nothing. Trust me, the last thing drivers and package handlers care about is the contents of your package.

It was a bike chained to a light pole and missing a rear tire. And here I was thinking I was missing out on some great inside joke... Smiley: lol

I'm laughing way to hard at this image you've given me of godraiden, with his paranoia preventing him from acquiring actual bomb making materials, trying to macgyver together a bomb using a shoe string, some cat turds, moldy grilled cheese, a paper clip, a cardboard papertowel tube, and his stellar intellect.

I sent my dad a gift card to a restaurant. He sent me an email thanking me, and saying, "we mailed you a card. No money. We are broke."

Yeah. Moving to Hawaii is expensive, too, dad...
