Besides, the rule of thumb is that if you are going to err at all, go out in flames. Err big, I always say. Two boxes of the wrong kind would definitely fall into that category.<BR/><BR/>MJ - movie tix are not a bad gift...unless they were specifically to a "Man Movie Matinee." That would be the gift that says, "I am cheap, and I really only want to go to the movies with you if I get to choose the movie."<BR/><BR/>mimi - the song was funny - it really was. I just thought that Ms. Silverman seemed to be blaming the wrong person. Santa wants to give her a gift, but his Rabbi said it wouldn't be kosher.bluesugarpoethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775769108087898456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134599986815094582005-12-14T14:39:00.000-08:002005-12-14T14:39:00.000-08:00we use both terms...probably has something to do w...we use both terms...probably has something to do with what part of the country you are from. i say loo because i don't like either one of those words. <BR/><BR/>other options:<BR/><BR/>the john<BR/>the head<BR/>the crapper<BR/>the potty<BR/>the little girls' room<BR/>the little boys' room<BR/>the ladies' room<BR/>the mens' room<BR/>the lavatory (hardly anyone in the US says this - so I do sometimes)Selenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671943289876209954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134532185797607562005-12-13T19:49:00.000-08:002005-12-13T19:49:00.000-08:00I thought Americans called it 'restroom', not bath...I thought Americans called it 'restroom', not bathroom!<BR/><BR/>Man I wish I listened to that Jew Girl song!supergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12951947815758293927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134495948767882432005-12-13T09:45:00.000-08:002005-12-13T09:45:00.000-08:00Yeah the movie tix thing kinda sucks...but it beat...Yeah the movie tix thing kinda sucks...but it beats a lump of coal.Jane D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17110052705958210841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134489811536544002005-12-13T08:03:00.000-08:002005-12-13T08:03:00.000-08:00I know for a fact that Gracie likes the Christmas ...I know for a fact that Gracie likes the Christmas Shoes song. There may have been some tears flowing last Thursday when it cam on the radio...but the worst Xmas song is Christmas Eve in Washington. You probably don't hear it out there, but the radio can't play enough of it here. Really bad.<BR/><BR/>Worst Xmas gift that I ever gave: I once gave movie passes to a girl that I was sort of dating. She actually was nice about it, but I got movie passes the next year from her. When I think about that gift, it is bad but not too terrible. At least it's a gift that allows us to spend time together, right? Sure, we can't talk during a movie, but at least we're spending time together. Right? <BR/><BR/>Worst gift that I ever received: my older brother once gave me a couple of comic books. He had agreed (and he thought that I had agreed also) to spend only $5 on a gift. I broke that agreement and thoroughly enjoyed him looking like a jackass when he opened my very nice gift.Michael Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550202353756026826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134429071355867432005-12-12T15:11:00.000-08:002005-12-12T15:11:00.000-08:00"frist" is another way of saying "first""frist" is another way of saying "first"Jane D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17110052705958210841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134429037819636122005-12-12T15:10:00.000-08:002005-12-12T15:10:00.000-08:00loogey perhaps?Worst christmas present - I have tw...loogey perhaps?<BR/><BR/>Worst christmas present - I have two that I felt very badly about. Ihe frist was when I was about 7. All my brothers got BB guns. I wanted one so bad and it was clear that there were only three such oddly shaped presents on Christmas morning. I got stuck with a 30 inch tall doll. It totally sucked. I hated dolls. I never played with them. So I felt bad about that one. <BR/><BR/>Then last year - this guy I was seeing gave me a lovely necklace. I felt bad about it because less than two weeks after Christmas he was history. I've not worn it since, so it seems like such a waste.Jane D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17110052705958210841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10453831.post-1134428539049510892005-12-12T15:02:00.000-08:002005-12-12T15:02:00.000-08:00Oh, the inhumanity!

I have never received a truly bad Christmas gift, unless you count getting major flu from my brother & sister such that we had to take turns barfing in our house's two bathrooms all Christmas day. Thing is, I can't remember who gave it to whom.<BR/><BR/>Probably the most inane gift I ever gave was 15 years ago. M had asked for a particular kind of candy in her stocking, and when I went to the candy store I didn't find it. But I found something in sort of the same category. So what did I do? I bought TWO boxes. Brilliant. I got her TWO of something she did not want, specifically <I>because</I> it was not the thing she wanted.PJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028687955957107957noreply@blogger.com
