I will probably end up receiving something absolutely twatty like bath salts and lipgloss.

Stocking stuffer for the kid who ate your pizza. Spend the money you save on buying one more present on another pizza for yourself.

Dead trees are insanely expensive.  I went down to the local supermarket (admittedly, a more upscale business than, say, Wal-Mart) and it was 90 dollars for a dead tree.

Good thing I invested in a fake plastic one a few years back.  Well, from a money POV anyway.  The cats see it as some kind of alien interloper, however, and keep attacking it, in a futile effort to climb to the summit and dethrone the star, which is clearly controlling the whole operation.  This effort is at least partly futile because the cats get half way up the tree and then start attacking each other.

Basically I spend an hour of my day locking the cats in the kitchen and repairing the savaged plastic tree.

That seems like a rather fitting analogy for the entire season.

It is.  I'm basically doing the same thing by not telling anyone what I want for Xmas.  Because, truth is, I don't really want anything.

People don't seem to get that this is the case, however, and it's driving them crazy.

Parents put the vacuum by the tree and pop it on when the kitten starts acting like an asshole near it. So far it's working.

I've taken that stance for years. Trust me, people will never get it. You will end up with shit you just throw away though. I suggest storage as a good go to. Can never have too many spare external HDD. Or think shit you always need to replace, such as headphones.

I would like a hobo santa suit for Christmas. So every year on he 24th I can get loaded, fill a bag with either cheap garbage, actual.garbage, or vodka shooters and see what happens.

Spraypaint a stick silver and nail it to the door.  Done.

In other news, right after I talked to my guys about not doing SHIT without paperwork, Mikey violates confined space entry permitting procedure.

:crankey:

Suspended him until I can decide what to do about it.  WTF?  WHAT THE HELL WAS HE THINKING?  5 more minutes, and he'd have had the fucking permit.

I'm just deciding whether or not to fire him this close to Christmas.

That is literally the only reason he might keep his job.
