Overrated things in life

[revo333]

Christmas seemed to be so simple and exciting growing up, I would see both sides of the family on the day with some trips being 2-3 hour return trips.

Than one year a relative said they couldn't do it anymore as their kids started having their own kids and the travel was becoming too much, it became a fairly big issue but looking back I understand them not wanting to do it anymore.

As time went on my parents told stories of how hard it was sometimes to organise the day and some of the crap they put up with from other family members.

The memories sure have been soured a little.

Thankfully I had a forward thinking grandma who realized well ahead of time the problems that can be created so just declared that that's family's Christmas would be the weekend before Dec 25 to avoid people having to double it. One of the goat all time calls to avoid all these kind of dramas.

This. Last thing I feel like doing on a 40 degree day is a hot roast 3 course lunch @ midday. Yet it is the Christmas lovers of tradition that decide. Any other suggestions are knocked back. Weird day as some people really get uppity over 24 hours. I'll take or leave. If you want to see someone and celebrate go on another of 364 days

We've had BBQ seafood instead of a roast on really hot Xmas days, it's brilliant.

BBQ on Xmas eve with dad as well which is way better than a sit down roast.

Sex. Lets face it for all the effort the reward is kind of small.

I disagree with that post multiple times actually.

We don't worry about the BBQ just have cold seafood, chicken, ham on the bone and salad/pasta/potato salad etc to go with it.

I don't eat a lot of bread but on Christmas day I make an exception had have fresh white bread rolls with home made mild chilli sauce and prawns on it, Mmmmm!

I had a Burmese who was quiet but a Siamese who loved a chat.
Would bite you on top the foot if you ignored him

I thought for a long, long time it was Burmese Mountain Dog (as in from Burma). Turns out it's Bernese and nothing to do with Burma.

Um. Same

 

[craigos]

Um. Same

How I felt

 

[Shell]

I dont.

They sound very similar.

For years I thought it was Camberra not CaNberra. They sound exactly alike!!!


When I was very young i legit thought they were talking about "Youth IN asia" and not "Euthanasia" I am not even kidding.

Well I'm sure at least you didn't write it up on the white board as an adult teacher like the one my mum told me about.

With the one child policy at the time it's an easy mistake to make.

I know Burma and "Berna" sound similar but Burma is sandwiched in between Bangladesh and Thailand. The Northern tip crosses over the Himalayan plateau but surely if you thought about Burma you wouldn't associate with a big fluffy dog that lives in snow.

Well maybe I didnt think about it Scotty. Thats the point.

We had a Siamese cat about 20 years ago. He was a dream but his chats were not never ending.

One little ******* burmese does not shut the * up. If you let her in lounge with you, whilst watching tv, you hope she will sit down, relax and have a nap or something. Rarely happens,, she just loves the sound of her own voice. Even if you let her sit on your lap, she will still turn around and look at you and crap on until, you decide, * this, you had your chance and kick her outside...lol... that happens 95% of time... problem is even outside the little *er will come to door nearest to living room and hound you to let her back in. Arrogant little *er.

Tonkinese Cat barely says a word so he is in good books with me.

Yeah cats meowing alot is annoying af.

Thankfully the cats i owned never did this. Only when they were hungry- or when you went outside and they saw you, they'd sometimes say "hello" that'd be it
