A'ight party pooper. Who said it had to be anything material? I mean...you could ask for something like an end to the Tc generator shortage, more generic meds, world peace...
 
World peace and six more hours in a day...

No prob...you get to be the forum Grinch.

a better job, a continous IV of beer, another dog....I dislike Christmas as well...
I love how our pharmacy is having a "party" with gifts, why not pool the money and get stuff for people that have less? going shopping during this time of year is ridiculous.
I told everyone not to get me anything and buy some toys for kids or something.
 
That's not good enough. In order for there to be a grinch, Christmas is thus necessitated. I want there to just be no Christmas.

It's all lunacy. It's not the season of giving. You give people crap with the idea that you will get something of roughly equal value in return. Hell, it's part of the etiquette. If someone buys you something, you have to give them something in return....of roughly equal value. Otherwise, you feel like **** because you broke the "Break Even Principle of Christmas™".

Really, you aren't buying **** for other people...you are buying yourself **** via proxy of other people under the facade of giving. It's fake giving. Just like the BCS.

Christmas is the BCS of holidays. Want to be a good pious religious guy/gal? Give the money you would normally spend on people to charities, then return everything you receive to the store and give the refund to some other charity. That's real giving. That would turn Christmas into a more legitimate playoff system than a fake ass BCS system.

That's the word.
 
Apparently WVU missed his true calling as a motivational speaker. I don't know about yall, but I'm pumped for the holidays now!

I tell people not to buy me gifts. I really dislike clutter, and Christmas gifts tend to be clutter. I do like shoes though. I buy myself a lot of shoes, not typical for a guy, but I'm like Imelda Marcos. I just keep buying and buying. I do poorly on an exam, I console myself with a pair of shoes. I do well on an exam, I congratulate myself with a pair of shoes. If you look up "Kelly" "shoes" on youtube, you'll get where I'm coming from. I'm just missing the really bad wig and women's clothes.

I also adopt a family and buy gifts for them with a group at work every year. I do like helping people less fortunate.

Oh, Christmas cookies are sweet!

Nope. You can't just lay down a blanket statement and expect that it applies to everyone...not everyone gives, expecting to receive in return. That sure as heck isn't why I give someone a gift.

I'll be giving all 27 of my co-workers at the pharmacy a gift and a box of homebaked cookies. And I promise you it isn't because I expect or want 27 gifts in return!

But since you're so adament about Christmas being a hoax...here's my Christmas gift to you. Pick a charity...any legit charity...and I'll donate $200 in your name. I promise you there are some people out there that still know what Christmas is about. Hopefully you'll come across one of them in person sometime soon ;)

What about from the familial aspect of tradition? It's to spend time with relatives and family to connect with them (and or friends). The giving tradition is a formality of keeping these bonds so that the future generation will do the same. While I agree that it's not always a time of altruism, I don't think it's by any means fake optimism because it is certainly a brighter mood lightener IF you choose to view it as such. What I'm trying ot say is that Christmas means something different to e veryone. Some people view it as Jesus's birthday, some as a time to etch in happy memories for their children, others just another party to go to out of obligation - but to make general blanket statements of worldwide hypcorisy? Doubtful. A lot of people do give to charities, it's just not blasted on the media as often as starving people are which warps your perception. You can, however, choose to view Christmas with cynicism, but that equally won't change anything either will it? Why purposefully take away happiness to serve some driven notion of heroic 'piety'? You can still have your cake and eat it too.

My school is doing way too much... before we only needed a 70% to pass, but they changed it for no valid reason.
 
I hate holidays.

Don't be nice and warm and happy for 3-4 weeks out of the year. If you want to give a guy a gift, giving it to them on an arbitrary day is more meaningful because there is no sense of obligation. Same with seeing family...and all the rest of that jazz.

And they need to come up with some new Christmas songs. If I hear Jingle Bells one more time, I'll go ballistic.
 
At my store, everyone in the pharmacy gets each other a $10 gift card. We printed a list of person & their stores. Then, there's a storewide (all employees) Secret Santa with a $15 max. This will be more gift cards. All told, I will spend $85 on gift cards, then get $85 back in gift cards. It seems to be a waste of time, but this is their tradition and I'm assigned to this store.

I do not exchange gifts with family members. I tell them that my gift to you is that you do not have to buy me a gift. If there's something that I need, then I would have already bought it for myself. If there's something that I would like but don't "need", then it would most likely cost several hundred dollars and no one would buy it for me anyway.

Christmas songs are not my favorites.
I don't really care about the holidays either.
and I don't have a wish list.
 
It's getting viscous out there! You'd think it was Christmas Eve. I did some routine shopping today, bookstore plus Wally World, and I almost got run over in the parking lot.
 
All I want for Christmas is a new job...
 
Since I don't want to quote the whole this is in regards to Evo. Part of what I think is wrong with us today is we don't spend enough time with family and friends, too much is working to get ahead. The path to happiness lies in spending as much quality time with family and friends (and owning lots of toys.)

So I don't need the holidays to see family or friends, that's #1 on my list always.

We've been looking for a clinical manager for over 6 months in your area. Maybe it will still be open by the time you finish your residency in 20 months.

I agree. It seems to be ingrained into the culture that success is always driven by money and more things to buy affection and love (though I must say, whoever has the most toys wins). It seems odd that people still believe this, but I've seen it with my own eyes how sad the american dream has been corrupted by greed. For me, money doesn't mean much to me as family and friends will always come first, but I wonder how far it would have to go before I comprimised.

But have you been naughty or nice?

Can we break it down into percentages? Like 95% nice and 5% naughty, 50% nice and 50% naughty, etc.

I've probably been 80% nice and 20% naughty, give or take a few percentages.

All or none.
 
Hmmm I thought being naughty WAS nice. My bad. :laugh:
 
I wish for a continuous supply of luck! I just got pulled out of a mud hole, because it rained this morning. Thankfully, I had a tow rope behind the driver's seat so that a VERY NICE older man could pull me out. His license plate was from New York, so now I have more love for you New Yorkers!
Happy Holidays! :D

I think you need to take a moment and find your happy place.

...well, that's what someone told me to do at work today...might work for you too.

Stop setting yourself up Spiriva! We all know where our "happy place" is.
 
After going to said happy place, I decided I want Rodriguez to get crushed by a Dodge pickup truck with a WV license plate instead. Ebola is too fancy and outlandish. I'm a simple person....Ebola just isn't in my heart. Thanks, I feel much better.

Dad????


I asked Santa for a new C-arm and clients who can afford to pay for their dog's Atopica (cyclosp.)

Currently not holding my breath on either one. There was one bright spot to the morning though-a client asked if their dog would still be able to orgasm after his neuter and inquired about getting generic viagra for their other older dog. I sent her over to the friendly neighbourhood Wag's for further enlightenment on her second question.
