Who else needs to get better at dropping christmas hints?

At the beginning of November, I dropped my one and only chritmas hint to my parents: I wrote down the prices and websites from which they could order Come Find Us, Gunnie Season, and Eyetrip. I then tack this information to the outside of my bedroom door. Pretty blunt, right?

This morning, I recieve:

3 shirts

Smartwool socks

3 or 4 books (all of which look terrible)

A new TV (which isn't really my present, its a family thing, and it was free)

I'm dissapointed for sounding like such a needy brat, but seriously? I was really looking forward to watching the 4bi9 crew get nasty in the BC before I went to shred on Christmas day.

Anybody else feel like they made it obvious, and they didn't get it?

but really you cant drop hints if you really want something. you gotta be up front. like this year i really wanted a new set of linens for my bed. like a comforter and sheets and pillows and shit. so i was like "mom and dad, i really want this for christmas" and boom, it was there christmas morning. same thing with my sister, she was all like "yo i dont have any good glassware for my house, i could really use some" and guess what i got her? motherfucking glassware. like a real nice juice pitcher and some cups and freezable beer mugs and shit.


you gotta be forward. none o that pussyfootin shit ya herd?

Thats really it. I always used to frustrate my parents because they'd ask what I wanted for christmas. Well, I'd think about it, and contemplate what I really needed... which well, usually was nothing. So I'd say just that. I did get some awesome gifts, but I guess I was a difficult kid to shop for. Now that I don't live at home, when I'm asked that question, and I think " what do I need ? " I have answers. Socks, for instance. Hell I wish I got some laundry detergent because I'm currently running out haha.
