Hating NYE

[jaydot]

No he's being fucking Scrooge

Scrooge was a fassy, got shook by apparitions. If it was me I would've lenged Tiny Tim out of his crippled misery.

Man educating us here on Dickens..

stop being sops imo

just get fucked enough that everything is good

thats what new years is really about... buying 2g when u usually only buy one

I'll go out because I don't want to be sitting at home thinking I could be having the time of my life. Then about midnight I'll be wishing I was at home. I know this and I can't stop it.

Do you do that every friday or just NYE. seems like a bizarre way of thinking.

I'm all for having a good night when I feel like it, not because I'm supposed to. It's not a useful way of thinking, granted.

Sound advice for life in general, tbh. Why stop with nye?

Aha. You've posted a picture of that thing that people keep saying. Cunning.

The only problem I have with Christmas is the glorification of consumerism throughout the entire month of December.

[DJoe]

who cares. if people want to buy each other presents let them. if you don't weave your loved ones a hemp jumper or something

[Laszlo]

If you want to fine, but being pressurised into it by a perceived societal standard perpetuated by the capitalist machine is a bit shit, imo.

[ezza]

no more shit than saying stuff like that ^

o'mighty one

[Harkat]

Xmas is only a consumer thing if youre weak and you let it become that. Xmas is more about time off/partying/playing videogames etc than just presents

[DJoe]

Thats bollocks man obviously capitalism an everything is a bit evil but if you dont want to be pressured into just don't do it. Loads of ppl don't bother with expensive presents and stuff. plenty of people I know just buy small stuff for their family because its nice. All the secret santa stuff is a bit too much for me so i dont do it. but ill buy my mum some earings or something because its a nice thing to do.

[ezza]

yeah its nice to be nice

fabricated or not lol

[Laszlo]

if you dont want to be pressured into just don't do it.

Most people aren't that strong. I admire your optimism if you think they are.

What I done this year in the end was wait for xmas eve when the crackers and gift boxes went on sale dirt cheap in M&S, then took out the gift from the crackers and put them in the gift boxes. Looked like I made an effort and spent loads, spent £6, my sister was well chuffed her nail-file and nail clippers, don't know who got the mini chrome yoyo though.

i always spend ny with my family so idk
