I **** my family
I dont like mindless obligations. "its the holiday that we all celebrate because its just what we do. so we'll keep on doing it for no reason until everyone dies". and the conversations with family you dont see often is dumb. 15 people having the same convo over and over "how are you. hows work. hows the wife/kids/gf/whatever"
If the holiday falls on a weekday - Im losing money
if the holiday falls on a weekend - im losing a day off

I have no other family in Aus other then my parents and my sister, so there are no dumb family dinner conversations.
But the only reason I like holidays is because I get days off and still get paid for itDrinking Enthusiast with a Car Problem

I had an exgf tell me I ruined christmas for her cause I went on a rant about how gifts are dumb. and if there is something I want that I dont have, its because I cant afford it. So that means it must be too much money that nobody is going to gift it to me. she asked "like what". A new car, house, better paying job? give me any of that for christmas and I'll marry you right fucking now lol
