Clorox Bleachman 2,483 Posted January 2 (edited) 16 minutes ago, time said: jeez, never heard of spoiler tags??? Quote My neighbour ruined Santa for me when I was 7. She waited until the afternoon of Christmas Day to deliver my present. I saw her passing the window. Then my maw pretended Santa had arrived late. What do you know, the present was from Santa. It wasn't even a good present. It was a console called Zone 40 which was a blatant Wii knockoff. The games were terrible and it broke after a day, so it went in the bin and ruined the logistics of Santa in my head. Thanks, Edith. Ah well, that was meant to be a spoiler. Maybe I could make it really small if you're scared to read it Edited January 2 by Clorox Bleachman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,248 Posted January 2 No spoiler here, but when I was about seven, in all the excitement I missed a present that was at the bottom of the bag. My Dad went to the pub at lunchtime, and when he came back he told me that Father Christmas had been in the pub and had asked if I had liked the present (I don't remember what it was). I saw no reason to disbelieve this, ran upstairs at once and found the present that I'd missed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThereWillBeDeaths7 755 Posted December 10 After having avoided Last Christmas for some time, I've been Whammed thrice today. Twice at work (on the radio) and a final time at home (my wife's spotify, while we were setting up our christmas tree). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 1,711 Posted December 16 I found myself (inaudibly) humming Another Rock n Roll Christmas, and misremembered it as being by Shakin Stevens or someone. But of course it’s by Gary Glitter, which is why it’ll never be played in public EVER AGAIN! Even if you surreptitiously listen on YouTube or Spotify, they’ll come for you in the middle of the night… and you will never be heard from again… Having said that, it’s hardly an essential artwork. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladyfiona 2,670 Posted Sunday at 00:57 Well if the patients hadn't had heard Wham when they came in for an appointment today when I was working this Saturday to help a colleague, they had by time they left as I had my Christmas playlist on shuffle. Only sign of Christmas at the hospital because we misplaced our fake Christmas Tree, that or someone stole it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
