ok seriously now
making things is suposably the beszt and all selfless and elflike but really now is it good? do you want me to make you a cd-r or buy you a real live record? do you want me to make you buy you a raleigh or assemble one out of cardboard and coathangers?

I want you to fucking chill out and have some eggnog with me.

I like it when people make gifts, it really shows thought has gone into it. I'm lucky that I have friends who are artists and stuff so they tend to like making damn good cartoon xmas cards and whatnot, and my nan makes me bikkies.

does it have to be eggnog but yes point taken

what's bikkies?

I can't make you the CDs I'm buying you, you punks. (If I'm buying you CDs, that is.)

bikkies = biscuits = cookies.

it just has to be alcoholic. I prefer drinks with friends to just about anything they could get me. Every year mr teeny and I have a gigantic fight because I never want anything for xmas and he insists on getting me something, but he's hopeless at figuring out presents, so he just nags me to tell him what I want. It has come down to wrestling several years.

My other half would be very happy with wrestling me as a present! :D

you can make cd's easypeasy nowadays ned i misundersatnd

i think minimal presents makes a lot of sense for couples especially couples who basically split their cash anyway, teeny, - like unless someone has an idea for a special thing - but even if you're not REALLy buying presents you should stil go to the dollar store and buy about 20 bucks worth of stupid crap

I bought my mum 50 fish fingerlings. They came early. She was excited.

My family are all Jehovahs Witnesses so I don't have to bother with Christmas much. Aren't you all jealous?

my parents are jews!

but seriously, i don't bother with presents unless they're for immediate family or boyfriend-like people (or friends that i bestow mix cds upon).

― stockholm cindy (Jody Beth Rosen), Tuesday, 21 December 2004 13:16 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm not jealous, I love Christmas. Though I'd be just as happy with a general midwinter celebration, as long as it still involved giving loved ones presents, eating chocolate and roast potatoes, and drinking.

I like made AND bought presents, as long as thought and love has gone into the choosing/making.
