For some reason, my Mum bought me a copy of Phil Collins autobiography for Christmas. I feel bad about just chucking it out, so i am reading it at the moment before giving it to a charity shop. Quite enjoying it actually!

imagine that being the best quote you could find to put on the cover. it’d be better off having nothing on the cover

Years ago my aunt gave me a bottle of talc, from a cheap set that she split.
Last Xmas from my brother (sister in law selected and wrapped) a cheap Bluetooth speaker that’s packaging was thick with dust and a small box of sweets that were near their expiry date, kinda hurtful more than getting nothing after what I spent on their kids.
I’d rather not get any presents as either zero thought goes into it and I feel worthless or thought may have gone into it but don’t like it so feel guilty that they wasted their time and money on it.

my brother bought me a twin peaks mug one year, and the following year bought the same mug for both me and my wife. he also bought me two copies of amelie on DVD for successive christmases.

I only buy for immediate family now and they get restaurant vouchers for places I know they want to go to. Boring but efficient.

Does the bin count as a room?

Is that because she knows you “like music”?

Do you think they’d be up for swapping with vouchers for restaurants that I don’t want to go to?

Do you know where she got it? My gf needs a new work mug and I’m creasing up at the possibilities here.

To be clear: they don’t have to eat with me.
