A price check? How many decades have you been alive?

Lol what? The store didn’t know the price so it took them 10 minutes to check for the lady in front of me. 99% of the time they just ask the person what they thought the price was and they take their word for it when it’s something this cheap. Jfc some of you

It's a rare poster who can combine such bad takes with a totally abrasive persona. Kudos!

I can't find Stratego for under ~$60 anywhere. Even walmart is $80, some places are $100. I'm not going to buy used on ebay for an xmas gift, but even those used are $35.

Trying to knock out Christmas shopping on etsy, but getting a 2 week span of delivery, some after New Years. Probably should just buy a year of NYTimes for some.

Sidenote: I am 50/50 on putting a lump of Kingsford charcoal in my 8 year old nephew's stocking. He is a piece of ****, but the parents don't have a great sense of humor.

Reminds me of the quiz question I came across once, which verb meaning "to abandon" has both a homophone and a homograph?

That's good. Now they all know what they are worth. From nothing (no Christmas card) or from say, 50 cents or less to $100 buckaroos. Or more.

Soon almost everyone will hate you and you will not be sending out Christmas Cards at all. The perfect win/win situation.

I hate the obligatory gift giving thing.

I buy gifts randomly for friends throughout the year, but being crunched with having to buy **** for family with no idea what to do for Xmas sucks.

The past few years, I've just been doing the same gift for everyone. For example, a nice journal with a quality pen. Easy to just buy a ****load and have extras for any surprise presents you need.

**** like that is what pisses me off, you're wasting money on me for something I'll never use and now I am obligated to buy you some **** you'll never look at again.

Regifting is an option along with the Human Fund, I suppose.
