I'd like that (minus the silly buddist bit) except I have family members still consumed by the silliness of christmas. I take part to preserve family harmony.

I do it to preserve family inharmony.

I celebrate Buddhist Christmas. I buy nothing for my friends. I buy nothing for my family. I buy nothing for everyone.

Give the gift of nothing and ask for nothing in return.

Same here

Admit it, Zoid.. you are just a cheap bastard .

I am almost ready to start-- But I feel no envy for those that are finished

Let me check...



Yep, apparently I am.



Sometimes I love being married

I have been done since the end of november.

Spec.

I've managed to convince all my friends (but not my family members) that I'm not really keen on the whole gift exchanging thing.

Then I found a fitting gift for The Bestfriend, and now she feels obligated to get me one in return. That's why I hate this silly ritual.

...

I've done no shopping.

Mostly done. Just need to make a quick run to get some stocking-stuffers for the wife.

Why don't you unilaterally decide to stop sending presents - believe me, they soon get the message and you don't have to deal with all those crappy useless presents bought for you...

I think that may be the only "real man" qualification I hold, then.

It's the only definition that counts IMO.

[Combat Ingrid]

I give nothing and get nothing

I have yet to start. I don't have too much to buy this year though.

Spoken like a true man. I've not even considered starting yet.
