What's everyone up to right now?

I don't want anything for Christmas. Both me and my sister do Konmariing, and we both realise that most Christmas presents get konmaried on either side... no shame... just the way it is, so we've already agreed we're not getting each other anything, and that's how we want it. We, in our family, are generally pretty flexible with Christmas... sometimes we'll postpone it and have it up to months later, letting us take advantage of the January sales if nothing else, or sometimes we won't do it all. No biggie either way really. I think this year it's going to be an understated if not non-existent one.

The easiest gift in the world:

A visa gift card. You can get them in any denomination, they are good wherever visa is accepted, you have buyer protection as if you used a credit card for your purchase and some cards are even reloadable.

If you can think of nothing else to respond with, at least you can reason your want for one.

Even Protestant?

That's pretty cool... never heard of them. I agree that gift cards are a great idea, and that was our alternative to nothing ...but we tend to do Amazon gift cards. I think they're nicer to receive than money cos when you get one it takes the guilt out of buying luxuries (dvds, books etc) cos you can't really use it for anything else.

That's actually a really good idea.

Yeah, we think so but that wasn't our original rationale for doing it that way, just a pleasant side effect that we realised after the fact; we did/do it like that sometimes because it's the only time we can all get together. Like this year it's gonna be a few days late to accommodate my sister. But it really doesn't matter when it is because being together is the important thing. We still do all the rituals and traditions, just on agreed upon different date, and it feels no different and it's also quite cool that while everyone else is winding down from their Christmases, we're still looking forward to ours

I hate when I read one of my posts back a few hours later and then I spot a glaring spelling or grammatical mistake that I missed before, and it's too bloody late to edit.

Can someone explain why that two-hour limit rule is a thing? Does it make the forum run more smoothly or something? I've been on others that don't have it.

I'm cool with the two-hour limit, but I do go a bit nuts when I catch a mistake after it's too late. >.<

You'd love Mafia then... you can't edit at all down there (unless you have game mod permissions... but even then it's against the rules to edit) so we Mafia players have had plenty of practice at having to ignore glaring typos and autocorrect fails
