Commercialism

So, I am heading into the gift-buying time of the year, when I shell out what little cash I have left after paying bills and buying food and booze, to purchase gifts for the fam.

And I hate it. I mean, most of my family doesn't give a shit if we swap gifts, but we do it out of habit every year. I finally ended the tradition of getting a gift for ever sibling and step-sibling and implemented a name drawing system. That is my first step towards eliminating Christmas gifts. I mean, I like buying my neice stuff, but even she has every single toy in the world.

So, thinking about this reminded me of the book I have above that I always see and think about reading, but haven't bothered to because I am too dim to follow through on reading most non-fiction. Anybody read it?

So, on this holiday season I give commericialism a big fat stinking F!
