FUCK WRAPPING PAPER

I just want to take this moment to express my hatred for wrapping paper. It doesn't cut, it rips. It just crinkles up and looks like shit, and I can't stand using it. Fuck tape too, sticks everywhere but where you want it.
Merry Christmas.

wrapping paper isn't very hard. If you have decent scissors you don't even have to cut you can just slide it right though the paper.

I used to just use bags for bottles and things, but this year I've just put everything in bags like DVDs and stuff. Faultless.

Wrapping paper sucks, I wrapped my sister a box of shoes and I just rolled it over the box but the paper was way to long so I just crumpled it up on the ends of the box and put loads of tape all over it. My mom wouldn't do it for me so I made it as shitty as I could, needless to say my sister still liked the shoes.

i actually find it particularly satisfying to wrap presents, seeing as how it is so easy and everything comes out so perfect. :D haha. really though, it isn't that hard. are you using scissors to cut it? cuz that would help.

i love wrapping presents and making them look pretty. wrapping is pretty easy if you know how to fold. its ribbons and bows that annoy me, but i still spend forever trying to get the perfect bow. presentation matters.
