Panic BuyingIt's the last shopping day before the whole country shuts down for christmas. You've been looking all over for something, anything, to buy your favourite person. Something that says you care, that makes them see you in a new light.
Well, something that won't make them punch you would do. My brother-in-law once bought his wife a bin for her birthday - it was a very nice bin, but boy was he in the crud for days.
What have you bought in sheer panic and desperation? Go on, you know you do it every year.

PubNot me but my dad's mate's brother.
In the pub before midnight communion. Dad, mate and mate's bro.
Dad: right, better go to church then.
Mate: yep, good plan. Then it's off home to sleep before tomorrow. Got everything done, bro?
Brother: Oh yes, got all the presents... oh fucksocks.
Turns out he's forgotten to get his wife a present. What makes it worse is that it is 11pm on Christmas eve, and they are all Christians, so forgetting that you a) have a wife and b) celebrate the birth of Jesus is pretty major, methinks.
Think he got her a bunch of flowers from all night garage. Me, have done all shopping and presents are all wrapped etc. Never as good as you think it will be though, is it.
