Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

My dad never let me play M-Rated games until I was 13. I always resented him for that at the time, but looking back?

...yeah, that was probably a wise choice.

I can't say goodbye to yesterday…

I didn't get to play M-rated games until I was 16.

I probably could have been allowed to play M-rated games before I ended up starting. I just chose not to.

I think the whole rating system needs to be revamped and updated.

Dad let me play Dragon Age: Origins when I was still 14, and Mobile Forces when I was at least 10 or 11.
Though, back then, I'd just skip cutscenes where possible in DAO, haha. Like. Just didn't care for it, all I wanted to do was kill monsters.

I hate when people say "It's the thought that counts" or "The real gift is spending time with family and/or getting love and appreciation."

Like, no, those aren't gifts. Love and appreciation is something I get all the time and it's no different on Christmas than it is on any other day if the year. If you genuinely consider that a gift then... who hurt you and do you need a hug? That's not me being an asshole that's an honest question cause, like, the only reason to consider that a gift is if you never experienced it and I honestly, genuinely really hope that whatever bad situation you're in gets better.

Also people who refuse gifts cause they don't celebrate Christmas. Like, I'm giving you free stuff just take it. You'd take it any other day of the year but suddenly because it's a holiday you don't celebrate you don't want it?

I'm a little weird about gifts. I mean, I tend to materialistic, but I don't like to ask people for anything. I adore giving them, though, and I spend hours trying to think of the right one.

Unlike some individuals, who were involved with the self help fiasco of '21. *Stares at the family portrait featuring my sisters*

Regardless, I have received gifts of the "thought that counts" variety, and those can be a grab bag from "oh... A cheap chemistry kit... Uh, okay." To my most cherished gift, a drawing my niece made of one of my characters. So, yeah. Not always a case of people being thoughtless.

I'm the opposite. I always write a list for Christmas and my birthday because I generally treat it as a way to get things that I want but din't want enough to justify shilling out actual money for it.

As for giving gifts... well, I'm fairly poor and can't afford to buy a lot of things for people without draining my bank account.

Once my new job starts, I'm gonna be impossible to shop for. To get something for me, someone would have to know me well enough to know the kinds of things I like, and know enough about those things so that they'd find out about them before I do. Otherwise, I'll buy it myself.

Actual Confession: I think the Boys is a bad show and Garth Enis is a bad writer (okay, that second one isn't odd, the man is widely acknowledged by the comic movie to be bad at writing (unsuprising since he wrote the Boys out of spite because none of the comics he wanted to write were getting picked up due to not being Superhero comics. That's right, the Boys is a Hate Fic that actualy got published) and its a miracle the show turned out half-decent, even if I think its bad).

Whenever I see something sappy or heartwarming or heartfelt I have to restrain myself from saying something snarky or sarcastic cause... that's kind of the only way I know how to interact with the world.
