A Capitalist Christmas

<< < (6/20) > >>

Barmymoo:
Well sure we give presents, make jokes, are civil, it's just that we're realistic about it - it's time-limited. In my case I can take up to a week. In some cases two hours is easily enough. Family is accidental, you don't always get along.

Josefbugman:
Again, to me thats a bit strange as the part of the family that I meet (my mums side) gets along very well. I don't meet my dads side as much because they are a bit busy with themselves as they have all got grown up children and are usually in the al garve at this time of year.

You have no idea how wrong you are right here.

Jimmy the Squid:
I find it strange that you appear to have a family that likes each other.

EDIT: Ok I just wrote a huge, rambling and inappropriate post of the reasons I hate my mother with reference to specific examples that in hindsight I don't want to share with you guys (no offence but I don't know many of you dudes that well since the exodus). Suffice to say that my family is a drag because everyone basically hates each other which makes things like Christmas almost unbearable for the most part and frankly I wish I could comfortably opt out of the whole thing.

Josefbugman:
@Zing:

Because people turn into gigantic towers of flesh and bone every evening! I was more meaning that, quite often, people don't change as much as they believe they do. OFC as with most things I seem to have written here, that probably needed some form of explanation, sorry.

@JtS:

I'm very sorry to hear that mate. Is there no chance of them behaving semi-decently with each other?
