Why does everyone I ask what they want for Christmas say "Don't get me anything" and then justify that with "I don't have the time/money etc. to get you anything"? (Although someone did say "Just your company is enough of a gift, which was terribly sweet.)

I don't know how I can say this any more clearly: I am getting you something for Christmas. You can either make a request, or accept what I blindly pick out.

Christmas is about giving. I neither want nor expect anything in return. Giving people things makes me happy. JUST LET ME BE HAPPY, GODDAMN IT.

I have the time, and I have the money, and you can't stop me from my holiday shopping. Sheesh.




Since when did Christmas become about giving gifts only to get gifts? And how did I miss that memo?

the last item on the christmas list i gave to my parents was "Fun/neat small stuff." I figured that's what you'd get anyways. What do you want from me?

Oh, God... ummmm... Anything The Litte Mermaid-ish, Star Wars figures, chocolate, whatever you feel like. Anything makes me happy.

XD I usually say "I don't want anything" because I don't usually know what I want.

I don't think I've ever said that, but I feel your pain D:

Something cute and stupid that reminds you of an inside joke of ours.
