A least you didn't get jumped by 5 idiots that wanted to beat the crap out of you -- (I have no idea how I didn't literally get the shit kicked out of me, sore ankle and knee is all.) And then had to cancel Christmas lunch for a disabled ol' fella cos you can't wheel him to your house with a sprained ankle. Spent the day alone, watching TV and wondering whether my sister was going to phone and tell me Dad is dead - he's in a bad way but hates me, so mmm.promethean75 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 25, 2024 5:11 pm Repost of a Prom75 Christmas Classic:
"this year i didn't do anything but drive around looking for somewhere open to eat. not a single 'merry christmas!' passed through my lips. no trees or nativity scenes of something that probably never happened. no turtle neck sweaters. no eggnog. i gave no presents and got nuthin from nobody... becuz i got nobody.
i am
utterly
alone.
i walk the street at night and pass a brightly lit house. through the window i see a family gathering around the dinner table. i can hear them laughing. the joyful banter of holiday cheer. after a brief prayer, they begin to pass the food around. sausage cheese balls. i love sausage cheese balls. i sit down on the curb and pretend to be with them. i can taste the greenbean casserole. it's delicious. i smile and crack a joke to uncle dave; hey dave, take it easy on the turkey, big guy. u know what they say... u are what u eat. he lightly punches me in the arm as everyone laughs at my lame joke. sinatra's christmas is playing now. what a great song i think, gazing up at the stars in the winter sky. that one there! look dave, that's the star that led the wisemen to the manger. yeah, he says looking up. it sure is, prom. it sure is.
then, out of nowhere, a car zooms by and hits a pot hole in front of me. a giant wave of mud water smashes me right in the face, breaking me out of my reverie. well how do u like that. guess i better be gettin home now. 'goodbye everyone' i whisper, wiping the mud water from my face, 'and merry Christmas'."

Now, I gotta hobble up the shops because me and the ol fella are doing lunch tomorrow now and his next door neighbour is coming, another ol fella - and boy, has that dude had some bad karma throughout life. Should have been a millionaire but now lives in a tiny little council unit!
Ever since my Mum died, I keep away from Dad and the family still spend it with him so ya, I try and help out the ol' fella, he has nobody (Christmas can really make for lonely times for some)accelafine wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 3:02 am How sweet that you and your degenerate misfit afflicted Houso friends get together at krissmiss

Just be careful when you take photos of your Mauri neighbours.
My GOD you are miserable. I had an extremely poor friend in primary school, even he got presents.accelafine wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 4:08 am It's just another day. Why do people always assume others want to do crap on that particular day? The people I feel for are children who get nothing from their worthless parents. Imagine how they feel with all the hype and all the children around them getting excited about all the presents they will be getting. Stuff the old farts. I bet they hate getting wheeled out for brownie points.

That old fart loves our Christmas catch ups, he used to be in the Merchant Navy where he used to play a lot of chess (he's shit tho, has never beat me
Why didn't someone warn me its f'ing Boxing Day - none of the grocery shops were open while I hobbled around with my sore ankle!

What a sheltered little life you must have lived. There are neglected, unloved children all over the place in so-called 'first world' countries. Just look at the child abuse statistics in your own country. Poor people can still love their children, idiot. I'm talking about parents who don't give a shit about their children.attofishpi wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 5:43 amaccelafine wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 4:22 amSo you don't give a shit about those children.

Can't say I have ever met any children in that situation. I suppose if I travelled to Africa I might come across some, but I don't think they're particularly into Christmas anyway.
I was pretty certain this conversation was about kids that don't get presents at Christmas. The statistics must be mind blowing for you (someone that doesn't get annoyed at anything) to ark up so much.accelafine wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 5:50 amWhat a sheltered little life you must have lived.

Brilliant deduction.

The only one 'arguing' was you. You seemed to think there weren't any except in Africa (why is it ALWAYS AFRICA?) It's natural for old people to be lonely and miserable. A force-fed xmas dinner isn't going to change that.attofishpi wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 8:48 amSo what is your argument?accelafine wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 8:42 amBrilliant deduction.

Ban Christmas, or allow more abortions so that scummy potential parents can't have children that they then decide not to provide Christmas presents for?
Obviously, you are a case in point!
