CaptainSarcastic posted:They also did this amazingly annoying thing at Christmas where only one person opened a gift at a time so everyone was watching you open your gifts. It was nerve-wracking. We still do this! Our Christmas dinner (European) is slammed down in barely an hour, then we have ~4 hours of opening presents. One. at. a. time. You'll go through a lot of coffee during this. It's great!

Poo In An Alleyway posted:I originally wasn't going to post about this Christmas' gift from my best friends, but I've realised in the last ~24 hours that I'm honestly more pissed about it than not, and will probably be bringing the gift to a charity shop in the next couple days along with various other 'I'm moving house soon and don't wanna carry this poo poo' odds and ends. Sometimes a gift is just a miss. Maybe they thought that the Lego set would be used by both of you. Maybe you like reading, and Star Wars is popular enough that they thought it would still be something you'd like, however niche it is. I'm just saying that this could be a fluke, and they genuinely thought it was a good present idea. I'd hate to see good relations break down over a misunderstanding.
