I've Been Avoiding It

But the time has come to go Christmas shopping. I read in the newspaper that shopping was super low this year, that retailers were suffering. Now, I'm not an anti-capitalist nor do I hope for recession or anything like that, but I must say, I sniggered at the fact that people were doing less shopping - GOOD! I loathe Christmas shopping, the lines, the bullshit items that get passed off as gifts. The sentimental bullshit on the TV for jewelry, clothes, electronics, whatever. It's all such bullshit. But the pleasure of the season is giving - unless of course, you have no money like me, so the pleasure of the season is getting shit you would have bought it you had a job.

Wish me luck!
