What Christmas thread are you most looking forward to

[janfebmar87]

I love a "I'm at the in-laws and I'm starving"
Also "dp didn't propose"

Obviously this is very lighthearted

Threads proclaiming Christmas to be over at 6am on Boxing Day (usually by people who put their tree up in flipping November). Meanwhile all the normal people have just received their proverbial two turtle doves and have barely got started!

And there will no doubt be a batshit "prepping for xmas 2025!" thread coming at some point today

Ooh I love a FB tat thread!

MIL is staying with us and to help she always cooks the meal on Christmas Eve. I had a little giggle to myself about penis portions when she served DH and DS larger portions of meat that me or the DDs (we get more chocolate!).

I do like the
My husband bought me an ironing board
ones.

Some of those threads are brutal as in how little regard some men have for their dw/partner and treat them with complete disdain.
Whilst said dw/partner have ran themselves ragged to provide family their Christmas.

I forgot to defrost the turkey.

The cat got in to where I was defrosting the turkey and is now a turkey filled puss cat. Can I still serve what she hasn't eaten?

I have roasted the potatoes, carrots and parsnips in goose fat and my teenager is refusing to eat them as they are 'no longer vegetarian' AIBU to think you can't be vegetarian at Christmas?

Do you ever ponder when doing your Christmas food shop (pausing to ponder by parking your trolly in front of the cheeses and preventing access to Port Salut and Stilon for the hoardes of families shopping together) what sort of Christmas person those around you are.

I do (well not the cheese blocking bit - I favour hovering at 7ft, if ever have to stop for a pico second to get something off the shelf, so i won't be in the way of all the 6" 2" husbands phoning their wives - at home cleaning the cutlery dtawer - about which milk their children have on their cereal - discovering for the sixth year in a row that thier children don't eat cereal).

I wonder which of the shoppers is going to lose their mind because despite all their planning, since March, they can't seem to get hold of Arctic-freezed Himalayan Pink Salt for Uncle Pete's red cabbage recipes that goes in Aunt Mable's serving. (And it didn't matter in the end because despite all their efforts their MIL ruined Christmas day because she actually had the cheek to suggest it didn't matter that said bowl wasn't positioned with the handles aligned north-west and south- east.) to which person will be wrap a pack of already opened batteries in a crisp packet and seal with half a roll of tape and that will do for the step daughter type.

Obviously, I am the perfect Christmas person.

Ah yes “reduced boots crap gift sets for EVERYBODY!” (Said in a decadent Shirley Bassey voice)

The in-laws doing everything wrong. I feel sorry for in-laws on here at times.

I don’t know if you write professionally, but you should! I’d read it, that was hysterical! 😂

One where someone is actually happy with their Christmas

Oh they would be called smug!

🤣🤣🤣
