I like Xmas, I don't want to start thinking about it in October though.

I don't even want to think about next Christmas.

Last one I was on my own, back in the old country, family was away in India in some Ayurvedic health resort and most friends were with their families, I was going to London a few days later so I was just at home getting mashed by myself.

Remember making a facebook post on whether I should have a bloody mary at ten am. I had several, then smoked amt, some etizolams and then it all went wrong. Ended up on a psych binge doing 4-ho-met and 4-aco-mipt and 2c-d later on in the night/next morning. I barely managed to get my shit together to go to my flight two days later. I watched a lot of movies, Hangover II, Thor and Underground by Kusturica the ones I enjoyed the most.

This Christmast I hope it'll be more social but knowing me I'm sure it'll end up with me locked at home doing speed/bath salts/random uppers I managed to acquire, listening to DnB. Meh, Christmast sucks

Perhaps we could share xmas stories so to give the thread a little purpose. I'm sure some of you have funny ones, like being at lunch with family on full blown WDs and throwing up on the roast.

OP is like the ads; starting earlier with each year.

 

[mattnotrik]

I work in a shop and we have already started getting christmas stuff in.. I dont know though, its like heres christmas, the only thing to keep you saddos going through winter. Anyhow everyone gets too giddy too early, Decemeber maybe it should all start, 3rd of october is daft.

 

[parttime crackhead]

Fuck Christmas.

 

[Marmalade]

Infraction worthy thread, surely mods? pinkpapaver is normally a sterling poster tho, so go easy on her, yeah?

I concur with jancrow's post, and say reopen on Dec 23/24 or summat.

 

[Acidtek]

This thread just reminds me I'm going to be single for yet another year!

I normally end up getting a raging habit around Christmas as well! Need to change that this year!

 

[monstanoodle]

FUCK KRIMBO!

Honestly - Believe to yourself that it's going to be the worst Krimbo possible, then get really pissed and it'll turn out to be alright!
Still, fuck Krimbo...

 

[rockstar 69]

Worst thread ever. And I like christmas..

People who shop for christmas in October are daft. It's not christmas without rushing around on the 24th of december still picking up a few things.

Yeah but you're in Oz for Christmas no? Christmas in Oz is brilliant. They don't do the big 3 month build up, shove it in your face bollocks. Basically its the middle of summer, 35+ degrees, bbqs, beers & blunts, birds in bikinis down the beach. Christmas eve, Christmas day and then it's gone. Sweet.

A Winterval thread? Oy vey. I expect better of you, pinky!

Spent last Christmas on MXE watching my (now former) housemate take his first 2C-B trip, which was my little gift to him. That was okay. The one before that I'd rather forget entirely.

Best one I've had in years was spent cat-sitting at my (now ex) girlfriend's place. Just me, a cat, a bottle of scotch, a pizza and bad TV. Perfect. I think that was 2009.

As long as I don't catch that Happy Days Christmas special (which never fails to make me blub), none of the above is half as sad as it may seem.

Sounds ideal actually, though I'd be inclined to swap the "scotch" for opiates and trips of some kind. Unfortunately I find it difficult to avoid the usual family get-together. It just gets a bit more fucking depressing every year as yet another family member either pops their clogs or disintegrates in some non-terminal fashion. Plus the driving duties increasingly fall upon me, being one of the few remaining with working arms/feet/eyes/brains/etc.

I suppose I have my health! :D

That was actually the first one in many years I didn't take a trip of some kind. Last year was also notable for oral DMT, though that was Christmas Eve. :D

Unfortunately I find it difficult to avoid the usual family get-together.

That's where my lack of such obligations becomes a bit of a boon. Swings and roundabouts, eh?

On a side-note, I always found it funny that an ex-girlfriend of mine (who was Jewish) had a mother who insisted on celebrating Christmas with presents, dinner all the trimmings, whereas my own (Roman Catholic) mother (back in the day) could barely be arsed to pull a cracker.

 

[knock]

dinner all the trimmings

Roast potatoes can turn the dreariest of situations round, to be fair, although there's never enough. I would happily skip turkey, sprouts, sausages, mash, yorkshire pud, trifle and so on for three courses of roast tatties and gravy.

 

[koneko]

Fuck Christmas.

Get on with it then...

 

[TheSpade]

I enjoy Xmas day, get up and start drinking bucks fizz, spend all day boozing, eat loads of good food, make small talk with family members, go out and get pissed at night. Repeat for the next few days.
