• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

How many here do them? They're kind of a tradition in my family. (I have quite a large extended family.) Partly perhaps because we don't see each other. It's one of the only ways we keep in touch. Literally, it's been over 24+ years since I saw some of them!

It's such a waste really too- isn't it? Not exactly environmentally friendly. I don't blame people opting for emails. Plus, it's crazy expensive.

I have to do mine soon. I'll probably force myself to do them now. Life's so full of chores. It's pathetically agonizing. Anyone else forcing themselves to do them? Maybe I should get drunk... Make my writing more and more illegible as I go.

It used to be even worse when new people started to send them. Work colleagues, new neighbours. Like FFS. Not more! I'm such a Scrooge!

Who here likes all this Christmas stuff? Writing cards, wrapping presents? Does anyone?

Actually, that reminds me. When I used to work in retail, this guy would come in each year, literally last minute gift buying. It was obvious he detested it. Each year, he would seem that little bit more drunk! One year, he was in over two days buying the same stuff because I think he said he'd left the first lot on a bus! Poor guy. I admired him for still making the effort though. I don't know. Is it good to make an effort or, do you suppose it's better to just be honest? I try to agree not to do Christmas presents with family now. It's stupid. We barely know one another now. We just end up buying shit the other person doesn't need or want.

I'm not in charge of writing Christmas cards in my family as I live with my parents and my mother does them. I think she had them done in October this year lol.
Have no friends so don't need to worry about that. OK actually I do have one friend, but she moved and I have no idea what her address is.

I DESPISE wrapping presents. It's completely stupid because it's just for my parents and they usually know what I am getting them. But I suck at it so bad. And it's the same concept as me trying to rip aluminum foil off the roll. I suck at that too

I have never made Christmas cards. I just randomly spawned into existence and can't keep up with all these pointless obligations. Idk why holidays keep happening year after year, it's relentless.

I don't like doing it for the people I don't give enough care to such as family members but I do like doing for my best friend as I want to show that I care about him so I actually put effort and make a card for him with some writing and drawings instead of getting a brought card and just signing my name at the bottom which I do when parents of my sibling give me a card for a another family member.
