All you do is sit around and watch everyone open presents. How selfish of them to occupy MY holiday time!!

    Oh I'm sorry that you have to WATCH everyone else... I mean the least they could do is get YOU something so they could watch you open one too. :wink:

    And while we are at it, we really should cancel birthdays too... Not only do we ask people to bring gifts, how dare we ask them to sing us happy birthday too...

    No joke. Op is ranting about the is it rude thread where done of us, myself included, said being expected to go to a wedding gift opening party is strange/rude/selfish/fill in the blank.

    As long as I get presents, I don't care if anyone watches me open them. And they sure as he11 better not expect to play with my toys. They're MINE.

    NEVER!!!!! Halloween is the BEST holiday ever. Forget the candy, I love the costumes. although we did give out 10 lbs of candy last year.

    I actually love that over the years my family has sort of developed the "everyone opens something at the same time" approach instead of having people wait and watch each other. Barf! :)

    Wow...pretty interesting how when some people are called out for THEIR posts, they get all defensive all of a sudden! Hmmm...I guess flaunting yourself all over the internet for strangers to drool and unending flirting and internet sex is what being "grown up" is all about! Hmm...must have missed that memo!

    Maybe if you were nice instead of naughty, you would have presents of your own to open!

    Before christmas became a commercial holiday, it had and still does have a significance for Christians. It is the celebration of the Birth of Jesus, for everyone else, well you open presents and spend time with the family which to me is a win win situation. That is except you dislike your family

    Oh... you're one of those! Take a chill pill, honey! I really don't see how getting pissy because some people don't appreciate your traditions is worth the energy you're wasting here.
