Aw, the kids are fine. Teach em it’s about family and togetherness, and use the allure of toys as a bribe to behave.

The people that have ruined it are the crass companies, that use it as an excuse to hawk their crap upon consumers and guilt them into buying. I see these Kay Jewelers commercials and wonder what their customer base is. Some craptastically cheap diamond chip pendant isn’t going to be welcome by any grown woman, yet this is what they insist women want for Christmas?

They show them a lot during sporting events. I think they prey upon unsuspecting meatheads who have no creativity

How's about two new Mercedes with a BIG RED BOW

So here's the thing. Both of my kid's are very family-oriented and genuinely good kids.

But they are kids, so they are also assholes. Often.


Also, I work from home, and they are off for the holiday, soooo super-productive days ahead during our busiest time of the year...

It's prolly a 50/50 bag of asshole kids and grumpy old asshole dad.

I’ll defer to your good parenting, Mr. Asshole. If they’re good kids, then spoil em a bit. Soon they’ll be more self-absorbed.

I can’t even imagine trying to concentrate on work with screechy kids on the background. Good luck. 🙂

Well said. I wonder what the price point is for my wife sometimes. I admittedly don’t give her much jewelry, but she’d probably bash me in the face if I ever tried to give her something I’d paid either $75 or $5000 for.

The only jewelry I ever bought my wife was the engagement ring. Oh, and a pair of ear rings made by a person with developmental disabilities being sold at a work fundraiser
 
Camfantasy said:
So how did you make the ear rings?

Why would I make ear rings to be sold at a fund raiser and then buy them myself?

Your attempted joke is ILLOGICAL
 
And @Dole ver 2.0 , I'm pretty sure I got covid too because my bro-in-law took me to the airport on the 10th and he got sick that night and tested positive. He got all beat up, staying in bed for a week, coughing his head off. I started getting sick that same weekend in Ohio but I've had common colds beat me up way worse. And nobody in my brother's family got sick from my visit. I still feel mildly sick.

It's super easy to make too! When I was in Ohio last week, my brother also makes it and he sent me home with a starter culture. I started my first batch yesterday.

The wife used to make kombucha and kefir when she wasn't working full time. But we quit drinking caffeine so we can't do the kombucha any more. And since she went back to work full time, she just doesn't have the time to make the kefir.

Perfect commercial after this whole month being bombarded with this one:

I hate that commercial. She gives him a cheap ass watch, he tries to give her a car, but she demands more.

I'd have given her a Christmas card with a $50 Target gift card in it.

Mofo said:
There’s a slightly longer version of the GMC one where it’s shown what gift she gives him first: a Fitbit-looking watch. I’m not sure who we’re supposed to think is a worse individual in the ads: her for being so shallow and selfish in taking the cool color truck, or him for being so dopey and emasculated.

Its the second "I LOVE IT!!" where she also stamps her little feet that irritates the living fuck out of me.

And the guy just wusses out.
