I completely agree, people go far too out. Too many decorations, too much food, too many presents, all for one day. I think a lot of people suffer from a crash because the realisation that they didnāt need that much to have a good day, yet now are in 6-7 grand debt because of some sort of need in them to make one day a year a little more exciting.Yeah I do get that, I just hate the term
I actually just put this on a Christmas thread, one thing I hate about Christmas is the extreme indulgence which then leads to a massive crash emotionally after,
āgod Iām gonna sound like a right Scrooge, but I bought nothing extremely extra, a few biscuits and chocolates the others are making their way through, and I consumed nothing extra, bar maybe more vegetables at dinner and more coffee, so so much more coffee
Iām not gonna binge over 2 days and then spend January feeling like tit going on crazy detox diets.ā

i just canāt be arsed with people who make comparisons in what theyāve spent or how āthoughtfulā they are
If youāre basing how much you like someone on what they give you then youāre in need of a gifted personality.
People who go to the post office paying bills and doing god knows what else. Whenever I go to post a parcel Iām stuck in a huge queue and wonder what people are doing. I canāt understand why people pay bills that way in this day and age. Why donāt they have a direct debit set up? I just donāt get why you would want to keep going queuing at the post office.
Mint chocolate is disgusting. Why would I want chocolate that tastes like toothpaste? 
Whole families going to the shops together are ridiculous. Iāve just been to Primark and in front of me there was a family of parents kid and grandparents out shopping together. In Primark! Why?!
Why go to the PO to post a parcel when they now collect from you.
thatās a lie, to quote a dear tictok friend of mine on this thread, you should be embarrassed by yourself.Mint chocolate is disgusting. Why would I want chocolate that tastes like toothpaste?
Really controversial, nobody who went/goes to the next sale at 5am/7am on Boxing Day have worked a day in their lives, they always smell bad as well.
sorry.
I'm guilty of this, though since last year, I've telephoned and done the bills automated pay line

Because Iām often in back to back Teams meetings and donāt want to be disturbed. Itās easier for me to go out when I know Iām free. And you have to pay for it, when itās already expensive to post things. Cost me over Ā£8 to send a relatively small parcel by special delivery today.
my mum did up until last year, just to keep bin charges and certain other charges like TV license to cash payments and not bank withdrawals.
you need help.Fruit flavour chocolate is far superior
My point was just like you have a reason to not have the PO pick your parcels up, others will have a good reason to also be at the PO and not do things other ways. I've not stepped foot in a PO for years and just don't understand anyone deliberately walking into one willingly
There's a woman at my work that gets all of us a little bag of pressies for Christmas & birthdays (there's only about 10 of us) - it's always tat, that she picks up from charity shops, and so I feel I have to get her a present, when I don't even like her, and I certainly don't want any tat! It really winds me up 
Plus I know in her household they aren't great with money and I just wish she'd stop wasting the money, on all of us.

My MIL received a lamp from her sister this year. Her sister literally took a lamp from her sitting room and gave it to my MIL (MIL recognised the lamp)
Like what the duck?
MIL's sister is pretty wealthy so it isn't like she couldn't afford to buy something.. My MIL doesn't care for presents and wouldn't complain if she didn't get anything but she definitely doesn't want a lamp that is fit for the bin

Hereās one. Drag Race is boring and unfunny. Canāt see whatās appealing about men dressed as women going āoh hunnayā and making stupid innuendos. People go wild over it and itās so dull.
Oh the topic of presents, I hate when people assume wealthy people should give expensive gifts! I can honestly say the majority of really memorable gifts I've received have been worth little monetary value but extremely high sentimental value! It's supposed to be the thought that counts, not the price tag!
Yes! Yes! Yes!!!!!! Couldn't agree more!!!!
Me too. Drag is hugely offensive to women.
Thankyou for saying this, I'm so sick of drag infiltrating every aspect of 'culture' these days, from dominating LGBT spaces to the huge toxic impact it's had on makeup culture. When can it die please!
Same for mint ice cream, it's just wrong.Mint chocolate is disgusting. Why would I want chocolate that tastes like toothpaste?
I've muted a friend on Facebook because she posts multiple pictures of her kid EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
My kid is not very good at posing for photos, so I tend to take 5 or 6 pictures at a time, then go back and delete the bad ones. This woman will take 10 pictures of her kid doing something mundane, like sat on the floor playing with a doll, then she uploads them all. So instead of one nice photo of the kid, you get 10 identical shots, where her hand might have moved slightly in one, or her head is in a slightly different position.
Half the time they're not even decent pictures. She's not doing anything worth sharing, just going about her day. We don't need to see it once, let alone 10 times!
