Is it just me or are they really fake and superficial? Everyone makes half jokes, and everyone half laughs. Everyone half finishes their drink and goes to the bathroom. And everyone half gives a sh*t while watching the clock for their chance to go home.
p.s. I think I should be a writer

I gather that's a not uncommon experience, but it was never mine.
I guess my family's just more fun than yours.
Maybe it's that we like each other as people.

I have said for years that I dread the Christmas Season because there is always an air of false sentiment. People go into deep credit card debt because they think it's the right thing to do. They work harder at being nicer to people just because they don't want to be seen as a Scrooge. And you're under obligation to hang out with family that you wouldn't ordinarily bother with. It just stresses out the majority of the population. Is that REALLY worth it? No wonder suicide rates are so high this time of year.

Maybe your family is fake and superficial but mine isn't.
