The Bah Humbug thread

[Rusty Knight]

As I sit at work on another Christmas eve, the sounds of Phillipinos, French and some broken form of English fill my ears and all I want to do is sleep blisfully through the next 24 hours.

 

Tell me my fellow nerds. For those of you 'lacking' in Christmas cheer, how do you intend to spend Christmas day?

 

I intend to spend it asleep and trying to avoid doing anything in the contary.

LAUNCH THE LIFERAFTS

 

Had over trough from midday till just a half hour ago or so. Honestly, I got so much food and booze left I'm probably just going to be drunk tomorrow and see if there's some people on for rp, or else play some games/watch netflix.

 

Day after my mom will be dropping by, idk what we will do yet

 

my sister fell asleep on my couch earlier though, that was cute. Then again my couch is too good and amazing to sleep on naps sneak upon me like a ninja when I lay onto it, and I just get randomly ko-ed

[SharlayanBlues]

I can relate to the whole bah-humbug feeling.

I currently moved house about six months ago, the last house I was in was decorated from top to bottom the way we wanted it but the area was awful. We exchanged with another family and the house was in a pretty bad state but followed through with it anyway, but time and money has been harsh and haven't been able to get much in the house sorted plus with stuff being all over the place.

 

So this year, no decorations, no tree, no gifts, it isn't happening this year!

But I still wish you that are a very happy Christmas and I hope you enjoy your day!

As for me, I am going to go down to the pub and get completely shitfaced and wait for it to be over and a picture shall be taken later to prove my worth as my face is already around the RPC somewhere!

This entire year has probably been the worst in my life. I've been just wanting this year to be over. I'm usually very festive sbout the holidays but it's been so damn hot and muggy here.

 

We have no decor up, no tree, no gifts, no nothing for some reason or another.

 

Probably just going to drink all day. I can make my booze last through New Year's.

[Nebbs]

I'm another no tree or decoration. It will be just another day.

[MBajihri]

I intend to RP on FFXIV a lot and maybe have a friend over or something. Not feeling too festive this season anyway. The NJ weather has been 80 to 10 to 30 to 70. It feels more like a week in August!

[Michaux]

I do have some decorations up and I will be spending tomorrow with my family, but I haven't really caught the holiday spirit this year. I'm unemployed and my UI benefits are about to run out, so I'm fretting about money. I also have to move next month, and I'm not looking forward to that. And in terms of my mental health, 2015 has been the worst year of my life. I'm ready to just get it over with and see if 2016 has anything better in store for me.

 

I also have health problems which prevent me from eating or drinking any yummy holiday foods or beverages, especially anything alcoholic. So I don't even have the luxury of getting drunk tomorrow!

[Aaron]

I'm probably gonna just hang with the guys and be a idiot like we always are in public places akin to those guys from Impractical Jokers, just to go above and beyond for the holidays.

 

Got a tree and all that, my roommates gonna have her friends over and take over the place so I gotta find something to do while I'm out

[S'imba]

I get to work...though I can imagine I'll have to go rescue some drunk dude stuck his tongue on an icy flag pole.

[Sahb]

Bathroom ceiling collapsed this morning, so I'll probably be spending Christmas Day cleaning that out so that I can actually take a shower.

 

Except I probably won't because I'm missing half my ceiling and the pipe above is still dripping so it's all hilariously damp. Ah landlords.

[Kurt S.]

As a filipino myself, crap I don't feel the christmas magic.

 

Anyway, I'll go wherever the family goes. That means lunch a relative's, dinner at a relative's. Go back home like 6am on the 26th with the rest of the relatives. It's all about the family and the food. 

It's the same damn thing for the past 18 or so years the repetition is maddening I just wanna curl up and sleeeeeepppp

 

Santa came by early today, you know what he got me? Fat. I'm gonna be fat at the end of this day. @u@-b

 

As a silly future person, hey at least I'm like 9 hours (as of this post) in Christmas and the world hasn't ended or anything.

[Oroban]

I'll be trying to hit another level 60 (The glamour beast in me needs more clothing options). Well, that and cooking a 13 pound prime rib, but that's less because it's Christmas, and more because Christmas gives me a good excuse to spend 100$ on a fancy hunk of meat to gorge on without anyone being too judgy. >_>

Hahaha 

In Japan alone on the biggest date day of the year. 

Being a fuck and taking myself on a date while I think about how I moved 3,000 miles away from my friends and family for work and I am now my social life went from hanging out on weekends to playing ffxiv with people. 

Also...I am Jewish so Christmas is like whatever >>

[Kellach Woods]

I'm running the Scholasticate questline.

If you know me, you know in how much hatred I currently am.

[Greybarren]

The year I decide to travel 1300 miles back home is the year that all of my mother's relatives are going to be in one spot ... all 120+ of them.  And guess who has to put up with their crap and family politics at the Christmas party.  Always a game who can talk the loudest, RIP my hearing.

 

The things I put up with to see my siblings who I miss dearly.

 

Also, internet sucks, pls send broadband.

[Miss Gaz]

I was never really into the spirit and as I got older saw no point in it so I tend to sit around and eat waffles courtesy of Denny's or Ihop

[Branson Thorne]

It's my little girls first Christmas, so no Bah Humbug here!

[Greg]

Drinking whiskey with my brother and watching Die Hard. The only one who got any presents this year was the dog, so we'll be taunting him with his giant toys and stumbling through the house quoting Bruce Willis.

[Cassandra]

I have a family gathering to be bored over, but otherwise am just going to game and sleep most of the day. Never have been overly festive. I wouldn't mind the family stuff so much if it wasn't ridiculously crowded because my aunt insists on having it in a house the size of a closet.

[Hyakki]

I have no friends or family to celebrate with, nobody calls, texts, emails or writes me. People here are all I have and even those relationships are strained these days

 

If I didn't have a child that depended on me, I'd go lay on train tracks.

 

I wish I could bitch about overzealous family gatherings

 

merry christmas

[Nikobi Eyre]

I suppose I might as well weigh in.. I DID have plans to go and visit family in between school semesters but they sort of fell through. Now I'm pretty much all by myself for the next week and a half. It sucks.

 

Don't be surprised if you guys see me here a lot over the next couple of weeks. However, for what it's worth.. Happy Solstice, everyone!
