    This year I'm going to purposely by shitty presents for everyone just to piss them off. After all, they've done that to me the past few years. (Whether it was intentional, I don't know...)

    Well it's the thought that counts, even if those thoughts are dominated by hatred and bitterness... that's what I always say.

    I'm getting a Nintendo DS for Christmas! \o/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 620 ✭✭✭Kêrmêttê


    I can say, truthfully, that I don't really want anything for Christmas this year.
    I've way too much crap and clutter... I'd love some more DVD's but I'll get them meself because other people would only get the wrong ones. :rolleyes:

    As an aside, I've bought all my Chrimbo pressies for everyone since the end of Aug / start of Sept in the Summer sales... I hate the last minute Christmas rush and over inflated prices. I'm really sensible... honest! ;)

    So what would be a good present for a guy then???
    I have a Dad, a brother and a boyfriend who always cringe any time I give them a present! :D

    Me too - one year I bought my stepdad an aftershave set - I was only a teenager now - he has a beard and don't shave :o . I have an uncle who is great to me and helps me out a lot and would love any ideas for what to get him.

    Myself for xmas I'd love a new picture phone, digital camera, pc and broadband at home.

    The usual selection of normal-ish gifts for people (aftershave/perfume gift packs, CDs, DVDs). I'm buying my mam an MP3 player. I don't really want anything for Christmas, not big into the whole presents thing I've realised...

    Lucky Koneko's Mam :) . I love giving the presents just as much as receiving them. I love getting my Mam a really big present. This year I hope to pay for her trip to Lourdes. She went last year and had a great time. Its around €350 so if I have the funds she will def get the tickets.

    If I was pushed to say I wanted something, it would probably be RAM.
    My birthday is 6 days before hand, so I'll probably just ask for money.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,889 ✭✭✭Third_Echelon


    im defo getting and I-River. Was thinking about buying a mountainbike... oh oh oh and a surprise...


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 6,525 Mod ✭✭✭✭sharkman

    Oh and peace and harmony in the World and a Kylie callender and some socks and jocks and Buckaroo !

    my own place fingers crossed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    We do a Kris Kindle (how ever you spell it), so the family sends around a list of things they'd like to eachother, then pick a name from a hat. Works really, really well. Also saves the having to think about presents bit. In a family of four sons, that's a Godsend :D

    I ****ing hate christmas. No really. It's just so crap. Forcing people who most of the time don't want to be together together and then listening to people gushing about the hilarious set of golf-pants they got from cousin ****head. Spare me. Christmas is what's wrong with the world.

    Don't go if you don't get on with the people. Jesus....

    People thinking that they have to see everyone and put on a false pretence is what's wrong with the world. Don't go see the people you don't like. Problem solved.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,169 ✭✭✭dangerman

    Couldn't agree more. But it's unavoidable if they are coming to your house.

    Actually I've been thinking and I know what the worst thing about christmas is...those little joke santa mechanical things that you press a button and they rotate/do a dance and play a little tune. Anyone who has the spare cash to buy anything like that, please, just don't. In the hands of a drunk aunty that thing will seem even funnier every time.

    /me makes plans to leave country.
