I’m 26 and my husband and I still do stockings! But they’re filled with random grown-up tit like shampoo refills and socks
completely agree. I think the drawn-out disclaimer is like beating a dead horse, it just makes it so much worse. Just say “I’m grateful, privileged, this video was highly requested” and MOVE ON.
I haven't watched the video yet. Has she really been given a girls summer uniform dress? Seriously?! Why would you gift something like that to an adult?
), I counted how many gifts she got: including the contents of her stocking, and all the consumables (because they are all branded and therefore expensive), she received 38 presents. Two more than Dudley Dursley got for his 11th birthday, and 30 more than I got haha.I legit thought the summer uniform dress was meant as a joke from Martha, until Ruby said she had it on her depop wishlist.
I really don't understand why an adult would want that. Unless of course she has (a) deep seated issues or (b) into kinky tit.
I seem to remember Ruby's other gift videos that Martha is always very thoughtful with the gifts she gets for Ruby. But it's hard to tell under how many layers of irony Martha's gift giving is
Can't say I judge Martha for that. If I can't stand an edited 10 minute video of Ruby, I can't imagine living with her
In defence of the dress, tbh I really like the style (not ironically and not as kinky tit
), maybe it doesn’t scream childish to me because I think in my country that isn’t really something young girls would wear (?) Idk, I can see how she would simply like the style of it.I’m in my mid-twenties and my mum still does a stocking for me each year (apart from this year as we didn’t see each other). It’s just tradition - my mum handmade my stocking when I was a toddler and we still use the same one so it’s just kind of nostalgia, you know? But my family isn’t well-off at all so it’s mostly just things like chocolates, maybe some cheap stationery, things like that.
snap!
I still get a stocking from my mum at 24 to be fair, but that's because she really enjoys finding small, surprise gifts (say 4-5 things like a book, pen, hat, etc.) for my siblings and I because we all ask for something specific for Christmas, haha, and there are no aunts/grandparents/etc. who send gifts. We did discuss when she would stop doing stockings though and I definitely don't envision getting one after say next year. My mum definitely isn't as over-involved or well off as Ruby's but for her it's a little extra thing she enjoys doing at Christmas. I can see why in Ruby's case, in context of all the other million gifts (I haven't seen the video so I'm assuming her other relatives got her things) the stocking seems super extra though.
I mean, it looks like any other bleeping picnic hamper, it just has F&M branding slapped on it. Which doesn't even look that nice imo
So glad this wasn't just me! Even Ruby sounded slightly awkward when she replied, it sounded like she was talking to a small child. It definitely suggests to me that her mum still treats Ruby and Martha as kids not adults, which given they're 20 and 18/19 (?) strikes me as really weird. No surprise Ruby still wants to dress like a child if she's basically treated as one.
I was schooled in the UK and had a dress exactly like the one Ruby was holding up (in a different colour) that I wore in the summer up until secondary school, so for me it's a bitIn defence of the dress, tbh I really like the style (not ironically and not as kinky tit
. I remember holidaying in my parent's home country and really liked the style of some dresses, then my parents explained that's the style for school children there 
(but in my defence, I was 15 at the time, not Ruby's age)
