Seriously, we don't give a shit. We hate Christmas. We hate the whole exercise of shopping for gifts. We hate that it's a litmus test for our affection for you. We hate spending the money. We think the whole thing is silly.

We really don't want anything, either. Honestly, half the time we invent stuff to put on our "list" so you'll shut up and leave us alone.[/quote]

Yeah, this is my husband, only its not just Christmas, it's all holidays.  The only way I get a Christmas, birthday, anniversary, or any other present is if I explicitly tell him, "I want this," and give him a link. Sometimes not even then.  He bitches every year about having to buy gifts for his mom and dad--what a hassle it is, how stupid it is, etc., etc.  He [b]doesn't want to buy gifts for our 2 year old because he says she's too young to care and she's getting a million things from the grandparents anyway[/b].  Today, I told him I needed the car (our only car) to finish Christmas shopping and he sulked for three hours because it meant he couldn't go to the gym and play basketball.  Half the things he does buy are online purchases that don't show up until New Year's.  It's lazy and selfish.

Here's a newsflash guys: it isn't all about you.  Grow up.[/quote]

He's probably right about that.
