What A Shitty Day...

Posted 12-25-2011 at 01:05 PM by JennyGenesis
So all of you here have probably been jollying it up today, but for me, urgh, this was the worst christmas ever, not the worst christmas ever in a few, the first time ever I have not enjoyed the day at all.

For starters, I have felt absolutely no excitement at all, which is highly unusual for me, so, to cheer things up a bit, me and 4 friends went out to a pub last night for a nice night out, and, it wasn't, talk about depressing, all of us felt miserable, just not excited at all, we just sat there, at a table, with our drinks, looking like depressed wrecks, and we didn't even speak to each other, we just sat there quietly...

So I came in at 1am this morning, went straight to sleep, here comes 7AM, the dog wakes me up by wiggling around in my bed, then just as I get back to sleep, the kids get me up...

I felt happy when I unwrapped Saints Row The Third to find that it came with the Professor Genki stuff, but, as some of you have read in What Are you playing right now? III. I don't like the game, so that just made my day worse with a disappointing present, disappointing in the sense that I think the game is crap.

Another present I unwrapped was a t shirt of a Haynes manual for a Jag E Type, I unwrapped it, unfolded it and took a look at it and went "ummm..." my Mum asked if I didn't like it, I said to her "Yeah I like it, I was going to buy it myself when I saw it but, look, its too big" she goes "No it's not, I bought you a medium, you always wear medium" So I informed her that it was infact large but she was adamant she bought a medium even though I went and showed her the label inside the T-Shirt which stated "L" for large, but nope, she's adamant she got a medium, I've only just managed to convince her to get her arse in gear and swap it for one that actually fits...

So my grandparents come over, I asked for Goldeneye 007 Reloaded off them, and, they delivered the goods, with a surprise, because they bought me the "Mi6 Edition" which I didn't even know existed, again, I had a moan about this in What Are You Playing Right Now? III, because, you know, when I ask for Goldeneye 007 for christmas, I don't expect to end up with Call of Duty...

So, another disappointment...

Next problem requires a little backstory,

I asked my parents for some Dr Martens and they were honest and said that they could not afford them, my boots were in dire need of a repair to, so I went and got them repaired instead since I knew I wasn't getting any Dr Martens, but wait, what happened? Oh look, I have Dr Martens, which I appreciate, but wait, I just wasted money on getting my old boots repaired, which took fucking ages to do as well!

Then, 2 family members of 2 different friends passed away today, so I spoke to them about that, which is, well... depressing.

Then I got this friend who likes to broadcast it very clearly that is he single and looking, almost everyday he has to post something on Facebook bitching about being single and today was no exception, except he had to make it christmasy by associating it with the classic song "Jingle Bells"

If you were to translate his text into a physical action, then he would be on his knees begging for a boyfriend, he even got pissed off at me once because we slept together a few times then got pissed at me because I said no when he asked me for a relationship... urgh! So that annoyed me as well!

But I did get some cool leather gloves, a new coat, trousers and a belt, and it's strange to think that today, I am actually more happy about the clothes I got instead of the video games... hmmmmm...

No. I'm obviously being over harsh. But when I considered that the entirety of my Christmas presents that I received were the new Beirut album, the soundtrack to The Muppets, a Modest Mouse shirt, and an Animal (from The Muppets) shirt, and that I was very pleased and thankful for what I received, well, your blog just irritated me.

Because the experience was only noteworthy if you love to read about spoiled, entitled brats who think it's the people in their life's job to provide them with what they want when what he should be feeling is gratitude that he has people in his life who care enough about him to think of buying him anything at all.

Spoiled and entitled brats a bit strong know. lol

But yes I see your point.

I think JG is just trying to say that his Christmas was shitty. Comparing it to others is pointless. If he thinks he had a shit day, then believe him when he did. It doesn't matter if he seems ungrateful or spoiled.
As everyone says, it is the thought that counts when it comes to receiving shitty presents. I got some pretty ordinary presents too and how could it not make you feel down? 'sounds like to me that JG had a shitty day. Why do you guys have to be such dicks about it?

Sometimes there's underlying issues that makes certain things seem more shitty than they are... Im pretty sure its not the gifts that he didn't like that made it that bad.

But now Im at risk of sounding condescending x_x I dunno... In any case, I hope you feel better now JG o.o

Seriously, what is wrong with 'ordinary' gifts? It is the fact that you got something at all that matters. You had more than you had in November, plus you have all the other good stuff that Christmas brings. Getting sad about the amount of presents you received is stupid because some people don't get any at all, and they still enjoy Christmas. I suppose I've been brought up to be happy with what I get. Maybe I'm biased.

I didn't whine about the amount of presents I recieved.

I don't know why, I've just been a miserable wreck this christmas and not felt the excitement and I just felt the day was made worse by the fact that the games I got were very disappointing, now, I asked for these games, and like I said, I appreciate that people got me the gifts and and I was thankful, I just was not happy with the outcome of the games, which is of course nobodies fault, but, I am very happy with all the other presents I got which include some clothes, DVD's and a couple of books. I got some DVD's I asked for and even some I didn't ask for and I'm grateful for all of them, so it's nothing to do with me being some spoilt brat because it's only a tiny percentage of the presents I got that I'm bitching about and again, this is nobodies fault as they only bought what I asked for.

Just think of it like Duke Nukem Forever, look at how much of a flop that game turned out to be despite how great people thought it would be.

I don't think that you can equate Christmas with Duke Nukem forever.

I'm equating it to the games.

I smiled as I unwrapped a white chocolate Toblerone, despite my father asking me which kind I like in November and me naturally responding 'Dark'.

"Oh well," I thought as I placed it to one side. "Doesn't really matter."

And they all lived satisfactorily ever after.

Duke Nukem Forever was for me the funniest Fail of them all.
