revo madnesss Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Hopefully getting 3x GTX 580's to replace my crossfired 6950's and maybe a hyper 10sc 3 is a total overkill unless its for folding, get the GTX 580 classified while your at it, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamiyacowboy Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 same thing i want every xmas but never get. to be left alone and the merryment kept as far away from me as possible.... This man has the correct idea. christmas these days does not have a meaning. you ask a child what christmas is and 9/10 the reply is " gifts/money/presents ". Its now early october, and by mid october we will start seeing the christmas tv adverts, it is all a farce now. parents did not ask you what you wanted, they already knew what you wanted, a bike, some cars, a trainset or snow sled. these days its Iphones, computers, consoles, mobilephones, the latest in shoe wear etc etc, large amounts of money and debt for others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin3171 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Nobody ever appreciates what they get for Xmas anyway! Either that or im rubbish at buying present for people. I dislike xmas as its all so commercial and about buying the most expensive gifts for people. My 2 year old nephew is the only good thing about Xmas time because he was so excited last year and i cant wait to see his face again on Xmas morning with all the presents to open. Despite that fact he doesn't actually care whats in there but the box and the paper is the most exciting part about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timaaay Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Times change. Having a brand new train set is comparable to getting the new iPhone. Stop being a grumpy fart. Hardly. Even when I was growing up, it used to be kids would spend at least as long talking about what they got last christmas than what they were hoping for in the coming year. As Tamiya Cowboy said, nowadays its even more geared toward 5 minute fashions and gadgets. All of which will be forgetten about in a years time, funnily enough just in time for christmas again. Of course this happened before, but it was maybe a few popular stocking fillers, not to the scale of £xxx though. I started seeing advent calendars at the end of september, and shops are already selling mince pies etc that will be out of date by mid November. As for me, I expressly avoided asking for anything this year. If people want to get me things they think I will appreciate, I'll be greatful for them, but I certainly wont be begging anyone to buy me something I want because "it's the season". But I guess that's me being "a grumpy fart". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Just family and friends for me. They mean too much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m3lyc Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Same as Nick. For me, Christmas is about spending time with family and enjoying the moment (and not to mention a great excuse to get hammered!). I only ever get £50 spent on me anyway. Not sure what I want yet. I got an MCX last year but now I have a PS3, I'm gonna look into games and DVD's. I'll probably get a few dvds anyway, I always do with my love of movies. Lee.

I totally agree pal BUT! i havnt spoken to my mum for the past 7 years and i have never even spoken to my dad even tho he knows who i am and we live in the same town yet he can walk past me in the street ( almost every day ) without so much as a hey! infact he has never even spoken to me once but you cant miss what you have never had Anyway back on topic.......... I dont speak to my family and the missus doesnt speak to hers prob mainly why we go away at christmas.
