You posted this last year and it wasn’t funny then. Maybe try again next year I guess. It’s pretty clear you’re going to keep trying instead of just writing something new and better.
You know you’ve reached adulthood when you find yourself wishing the gift you’re about to open will be a really nice pair of socks. Your grandparents really were on to something when you were a kid, you were just too young to appreciate it.
As an adult-adult: This is exactly what I asked for! (because I ask for something incredibly low standard or in the self-interest of the giver to give me and ‘Santa’ buys me exactly what I fucken ask for so I’ll never be disappointed)
People apparently have figured -me- out. Under my miniature tree this morning, there are:
* A fkucign HUGE bag of York Peppermint Patties — full size ones, too!
* A bag of “factory seconds” of my absolute favorite candy bar brand — that’s not available in this state
* A Costco-size container of Sea-Salt Caramels
* TWO nice bottles of bourbon.
Nothing that I have to find a place to store, or keep clean, or figger out how to dispose of discreetly.
I almost startet crying after a friend gave me a present this year. A friend….. someone that is not in my family gave me a present because we are friends
I know what you mean. I’m lucky if I get one wrapped gift…
Lol.

Meh, I prefer giving presents. No one ever gives me a present of something I really like anyway.

I get PUMPED for socks
Opposite for me. I grew up loving every gift no matter what. Now I feel bad and guilty receiving anything even if it’s something I want/need.

It’s not so much the gift itself anymore, it’s the thought.
I don’t like recieving gifts. The idea that someone spends money on me makes me feels so guilty it gets unbearable
socks and sweatpants rank high on my list
Slippers with memory foam, baby

Well obviously the gift won’t be what you asked Santa for, since it is his father that gives him the present.
Age 5: cry because i got a Nintendo instead of a SEGA.
Age 35: cry because i got a $50 mini fridge.
I got toilet paper this year…. and i was damn grateful.
“That’s good, open it quick, we forgot the air holes.” lol

The older I get the more I realize Christmas is just how “they” get to abuse my bank account every year.
Presents are just things I’d buy myself if I cared enough to search for it on Amazon.
It better not be a mug.
Fingers crossed it’s socks and underwear!
Can’t say I give a shit about a present as an adult… Was much greater as a kid
Lol…I never got any presents so no idea what you are talking about.
