The Season To…(Be an Asshole)
I hate Christmas.
I hate the lights. I hate the decorations. I hate the greed that causes people to ask for everything under the sun. I hate the fact that people feel the need to spend money they don’t have on worthless crap that will end up in the trash in less than a month.
Now don’t get me wrong, there are some things I like. I actually enjoy spending hours in the kitchen making junk that we shouldn’t eat. Countless types of fudge. Cookies. Divinity.
I like seeing the kid’s faces light up when they open a present they really wanted.
I DON’T like seeing the kids get pissed off because of the one present they didn’t get. Or because they really want something another child got.
I DON’T like my mother insisting we do holidays at her house when I am allergic to her 4 dogs. And her real Christmas tree. Oh, but she doesn’t care if I’m miserable, as long as she gets her way.
I don’t like the fact that I spend more time in the car on holidays as I shuffle my kids to their various other family members than I do at home.
I definitely DO like the fact that AEW Rampage will be on Christmas night this year, instead of its usual Friday night. That will at least give me something to look forward to.
Do me a favor. Don’t be a greedy asshole this holiday season.
