Woomeister's Countdown To Xmas Thread.

[Woomeister]

So its 12 days to go till xmas, but what does it really mean to you? Religious festival? Family time? Happy time? Sad time? Lets here what you think about the biggest western world 'celebration'.
Personally Xmas was just an excuse for times of debauchery until my son was born, he was 4 in September and this xmas he is excited for the first time. The tree is up and we are going to lapland for 3 days over the holidays. Log cabin, reindeer ride and memeories in the making!

As long as your family is together and the atmosphere is good then presents arent everything... I understand it is hard with when you want to give them everything. I am lucky that things are ok for me and im sure things will get better for you bro!

Thats the most depressing thing ive heard in awhile

Christmas is when your family pretends to like the gifts you got them.
Your eating perogies, cabbage rolls, turkey, potatoe salad, egg salad, coleslaw.
The kids are waking you up at dead time to open christmas presents.

 

[Heads Up]

Being completely honest, it's a mixed bag for me. I miss the love of my life. Ten years and there is a hole, an emptiness that I doubt will ever go away. On the brighter side, I've finally found out how to live with myself, by myself and be happy, in a relative way. My parents are both gone, my only brother is an asshole I don't speak to...and my dog died and my pickup won't start.

I made up the last two.

I must also admit, it's kinda' nice not having to be caught up in the christmas shopping drama. I can give what I want to whom I want, nobody expects anything from me.

life's depressing bro.... here, get your mind off of reality...

life would be worse if you didnt have your 4 year old or wife or other family my friend. I spent 8 months in rehab including the xmas and new year of 2000, now that was depressing!!!

Seconded. I actually think I might...

 

[ruderalis88]

well i tried, did some chanting and wand waving, dunno if it worked or not. santa's such a magic-gannet this time of year. what he should do instead of giving out presents is give out magic abilities. that would be saweeeeet

santa is dead.... thats the story here

Bah humbug....part of the magic of xmas for children is the imaginary world of santa! Even if you cant give them what you do it in a way that they will always remember.On xmas eve get some glitter and sprinkle it up the stairs and under the kids beds and leave whatever you can under the bed. Tell them that the glitter falls of santa as he walks up the stairs, the look on their faces is worth a million pounds!

 

[Brevity, The Soul Of Wit!]

I take it you've never been truely broke..... glitter takes money, gas, and tires to get there...... yeah..... merry fucking christmas to all

CHEER UP!

 

[Brevity, The Soul Of Wit!]

You need to get some tab of X.

In 1999 I was homeless and destitute with a severe alcohol dependency, cocaine addiction and stuck in a country with no passport. The only thing that saved me was the fact that I phoned my friend to say goodbye before taking an overdose. I was found minutes before dying due to the help of an international operator tracing the line I rang from and the fact that i left footprints in the snow (I was in the French Alps). I understand hardship otherwise I wouldnt say things that could be construed as patronising....

 

[Brevity, The Soul Of Wit!]

can my son wear that and keep warm???

Well technically yes but I was talking about for you to cheer up.
