So what? Shut up, it's nice.

Sure it is, it's a nice thing to do.
But it's a chore, not a present.

I'm going to have a massive shit round my mum's this Xmas,
I'm even going to flush the bog AND not charge her for it, in lieu of a present.

Do you know what I mean, though?
It's like saying "This year my Christmas present to you is that I'm going to do the hoovering and take the bins out".

Sure it's a nice thought, but still...

It's ok Kroney, my parents love me so they're happy with that.

Correction, your parents love you so they act ok with it
whilst internally wondering what they did wrong.
