This is the thread to complain about holiday related bullshit.

We are doing a very pared back Christmas this year, but I still had to hit the grocery store to get some last minute produce so it didn't wilt in my fridge all week.

Couples who bring their entire families to the grocery store during the holidays blow my mind. One should stay home. Other does the shopping. I'm trying to get in and get out and you're letting your 9 year old boys push a cart sideways down the aisle while the 2 in the cart scream. Don't let your loving kids push the cart.

I cook a lot. I like to play some music or listen to a podcast while I'm spinning plates in the kitchen. Please do not lean on the kitchen bench and scroll on tik-tok with the volume up. Something about 2 second clipped soundbites and that loving high pitched voice makes my forehead vein pulsate. It sounds like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjT3DeoEp0Y

ALSO, If I ask you to please stop with the annoying Tik-Tok videos, please don't explain that "its instagram" and continue to do it. I'm cooking you loving dinner. You're 24 years old. Stop acting like an angsty teen just because you're back home for a weekend. IF you're in the kitchen you're either helping or cleaning. We trying to make merry here.

STFU about politics. All of it. Yes, even you. There always has to be one aunt or uncle that has a half glass too much sherry and needs to hold court. S.T.F.U.

Anyways I'm sure I'll find more reasons to bump this thread in the coming days. Merry chrisler

No more Santa at my mall. leftist sectarian publicists k-gang members got to him

Just had the thought: there is almost certainly a non-zero amount of santas that have gotten fired for espousing Q-related political beliefs to children

You think they got fired instead of promoted? I'm not sure what a Santa promotion entails I assume they get made king of the santas or something.

Guess it really depends on if the person running the mall is based or not

Couple years ago I was drinking alone in a bar on Christmas eve in Cleveland, Ohio. It just sort of worked out that my folks were traveling for Christmas and I had to work so driving home wasn't really an option.

Some young manic pixie type was trying really hard to convince me that it was sad to be alone in a bar on Christmas and I was like "no, seriously, this actually rules and I'm very much into it" but she didn't believe me. FUCKIN CHICKS MANNNN.

turkey liver on toast is deee-lish

more whine:

Every. loving. Year. Father in law insists on bringing cheap store-bought duplicates of everyone else's usual holiday contribution.

Sister in law makes a macadamia crusted ham and its delicious. He buys a $20 vaccum packed ham from the supermarket.

I made fresh poached tiger prawns. He shows up with a shrimp cocktail.

Brother brings a beautiful fresh salad. He brings a store bought tub of macaroni salad.

I'm certainly not above regular leg ham, shrimp cocktail, and a macaroni salad - but like, MAN, we asked you to contribute soft drink and you've showed up with a super low effort parallel meal that only you and your family pick at. Its just weird and kind of annoying when others actually put effort and care into making something nice.

I literally stood in line for good tiger prawns. Next year I'm just cooking everything and asking for a nominal monetary contribution.

Oh and BIL showed up with nine (9) devilled eggs on a plastic plate with the film pulled back because he got peckish on the 20 minute drive over. THAAANKS BRO.

He's rad if you want to talk to a mid 30s dude about Apex Legends and Steven Crowder.

Nerf is not loving around with the new rifles. Young lad hit me HARD in the balls with a dart and Ol Righty is the size of an apricot now.

Poor lil dude felt bad and I felt bad for screaming loving poo poo**** (australian slang for person) so loudly on Santas birthday.
