... Family is #1 source of stress.
Holy shit!
-
I don't like it. Used to hate it. Single dad so I see my son on 26th to avoid any feeling of him being shared around.
I just see stress and anger come out in gf, parents and anyone else I stay around as they "prepare" for Christmas. For fuck sake, relax, it is a holiday. I don't know if it is the time off (my dad loves to be busy) or need to be perfect (gf is anal about cleaning and cooking, my mom is same, no Oedipus).
With the exception of my girlfriend, the rest of my family/extended family are atheist. It used to be a nice day to chill out, but lately it has become too much of a dick measuring contest re gifts etc. I really, really dislike that. The fact I am on getbig and just played a poker game online probably says something - it is 00.40 here.

Hanging around with my parents getting shitfaced, eating great food and laughing. I'm doing great.

Maybe a couple glasses of red wine and a pic of your thick veiny...biceps.

I was shopping at the grocery store at 11:30 AM. That was stressful.

Indeed. I had to explain my gym time in the basement as "doing a project". Yeah, Project Guns 20.

Would a Glock 26 be a good Christmas present to myself?

Would a Glock 26 be a good Christmas present to myself?
What is the purpose? For concealed carry, unless you need to put it in a pocket, I like the 19 better. It's a little bigger, much easier to control and holds a crap-ton of bullets

I am such a dick that if i gave someone a gun as a present they'd assume i wanted them to off themselves.
If i didn't give ammo they would get angrier, buy some and kill me before offing themselves/celebrating.

Yes concealed. Good point about the 19 holding more rounds and being just a little bigger.

Holiday stress is real and can cause legit depression forbsome folks.

Just spent an hour or so transcribing and adding to my Christmas message to my parents. I probably spent 45 minutes writing draft. They are 66 and 67 now... one of the most emotionally taxing things I have ever done, but I would rather this than one of them passing away without me saying something so meaningful. I can finally destress.
Better write something for gf but she no speak good engrish so I will get away with less.
-
Getting shit faced eating junk, watching Rocky Balboa, Creed and Die hard, crashing and hitting legs tomorrow morning with a hangover (that's my stress!).

My gym is closed for 2 days. I would bitch but I have had to work over holidays before and a gymrat's workout is not too high up on list of jobs to be done. Anyone admitted to emergency department tomorrow for overeating should be finded a large amount.
@ Radical Plato - hey I can be a cold fucker but when I wear heart on sleeve people appreciate it. I have not cried in 5 years (I remember the day and moment horribly, don't ask) so when I show some emotion it is aprreciated. Think I am just appreciating mortality and my parents' age.

I have not cried since 1995. True story.

No shit. Specially when you have to do two sets of family. >:(

I was only taking the piss. My parents are elderly also, both in the last stages of their life with numerous health complications. I just struggle to feel much love for them, they weren't the best parents growing up and although I think I should have some warm fuzzy feelings for them I just don't. I probably have a little more compassion for my Mum, but my Dad is a cold, brutal old man. Some of my siblings have organised to go see him tomorrow as he lives miles away and they asked me to come and I said 'No". They try and guilt me by saying it may be the last time you see him and I go 'So what".

So, you don't like your parents and you do not like pitbulls.
-
The holidays do not stress me. On the other hand, they really don't make me excited any more. I guess I am just "indifferent" to the holidays.

Something like that.

Who do you dislike more, your parents or pitbulls?
-

Well technically, I don't dislike pitbulls, just the humans who artificially created such a breed and those who continue to keep them relevant. Usually dog fighters, do-gooders, bogans and rednecks.
And I don't really dislike my parents, more indifferent to them, just don't have the warm fuzzy loving feelings I assume most people think you should feel towards your parents.

So, if you don't think pitbulls should be kept relevant, I'm assuming you believe they should be exterminated?

Not exterminated, but made extinct. There is a difference. True dog lovers wouldn't mind one bit, as there will always be some poor mutt to rescue from the pound. Pitbull lovers aren't dog lovers, they are the antithesis of dog lovers, as what type of person wants a dog designed with the specific purpose of killing other dogs.

Liberals must really fear you.

There is something needed in the darkest of times. Moreso in the northern parts of Sweden. Time off work, and shining lights. I don't care much for christmas presents, dinners or the disgusting treats, but I like that the tradition is there.

Ours is open Christmas day, only the real hardcore get to shake off family duties to get to go, gym owner is rumoured to be handing out special Christmas gym t-shirts for the real men who turned up...
-
I'm watching crappy tv and looking forward to tomorrow. Christmas is just memories of my father smashing up the kitchen, chasing my mother with a knife and telling me to hang myself. Lovely childhood Christmas memories!!

Been on 6 fucking hours assembling my sons "lego death star" and only just got done with the first of 4 boxes of bits

Isn't the idea that HE'D be the one to assemble it? Isn't that part of the fun?
Otherwise you have a floating globe to play with. Yay.

My dad and his buddy used to build my lego stuff too.
I turned out great, so no worries with what's going on here. But I just burned one down, eyes getting heavy.
Time for Zzzzz...

Maybe Legos aren't the best gift then?

So far, I've had a verbal confrontation with my sister-in-law, a scuffle with her son (who was drunk as a skunk and 17,) and an argument with my wife. There's also been fights among other family members... Which got me thinking: Even though we share the same blood and/or family ties... we have very little in common.
This is going soooooo peachy.

He likes playing with the sets, he's 8 and the toy is 14+ so can hardly expect him to do it

Never get married and don't have kids.
It makes everything a lot easier.
-
What! You cried. Pussy !!!
I was 14. Please forgive me.
