Threatening is one thing but to actually carry it out you have to be a real idiot. Be a real man and get spending. All be be forgotten in no time.

I'm not a Christian, so don't go either way with Christmas.
I am also not a hypocrite, so don't pretend it's anything more than a public holiday.
Being self employed it is nice to have some time to put my feet up and this is as good a time as any.
I give my family presents, but insist that they are New Years presents, a week early.
I love New Year celebrations, but Christmas, Meh.

I'm slowly but steadily alienating everyone I know so I don't have to buy any presents.

Been trying that gradually for some years now. It DOES work, trust me.

You are not wrong there mate, just don't feel right, snuggling around the aircon and BBQ's all the time around the pool.
Takes some getting used to.
