A Christmas dinner with your relatives where half of them hate each other but aren't enough of adults to actually deal with the issue so they're just passive aggressive with each other the whole fricking day, the other half don't want to be there, and you couldn't care less about everyone else there. The optimal Christmas gathering.
yep, our cousins and whole extended family dont even talk to our side anymore ever since covid cause they dont want to deal with bullshit. its for the better
Oh I'm sorry.
Was I supposed to just forgive the 5 cheating ex girlfriends I had leading up to the new year?
Was I supposed to just ignore how I was nothing but a fricking accessory for social events to them?
Now all I use women for is fricking. They have shown me they're good for nothing else.
Spare me if you think spending christmas with a fricking gaslighting manipulative prostitute is anyone's idea of a good christmas when it will only become a poisoned memory thanks to their pathetic infidelity. >Incel!
Excuse me while I dial up another bawd and dump her ass the next morning. Women are fricking worthless beyond their c**ts.
it's fine anon that's not your fault. it's about time you stop trying to socialize. You're just hurting other people and hurting yourself. Nobody wants you around. Let the normies enjoy this fake happiness.
If you were a tall chad who gives them money, their ineraction would change. People are hypocritical
this, but unironically. I'm so tired of faking every single reaction, word and motion on my face just to tolerate family gatherings, and since I've got nothing going for me, I might as well just end it all. If anyone wants the challenge, reply to me with your best arguments for me to commit suicide
>hey man do you have a girlfriend yet?
this used to make me really flustered when I was a teen, but nowadays, I just sigh as a sign of annoyance and say "don't have the time, need to work, need to study, need to become someone" (or some other generic shit along these lines)
>all the gays going "HUUUURGH I WAS FORCED TO BE WITH MY FAMILH WHEN I COULD JUST PLAY VIDYA"
You're going to have long, cold, sleepless nights staring into darkness and thinking about all the countless moments when you pushed away yout family and other people just to stare at a screen and play whatever slop came out recently, knowing full well that you are alone and can never turn back time
And it will happen before you know it - time is a unstoppable force, and strikes without mercy.
that's already been happening for years. The only people in my life that have any hope in me are my mother and maternal grandmother. God knows why, I guess they're just too emotionally invested in me to confront my many failures as signs of me being a total failure, instead, they just think that I'm "inexperienced, but talented; handsome, but too responsible to be in a relationship; kind, but just a little too stoic."
I had a fight with my family and now we're all sad. It sucks, I wish I hadn't come.
>I'm so fricking tired
this is the only thing you said that's really honest bro and it's the real reason why you argued with your family. you're just fricking tired. everything is harder when you're tired. and then the guilt from being tired only makes you more tired. but it's not your fault man because the world today is literally rigged to extract every ounce of energy from you and dispose of you like a used battery. but that's not your fault either, not are you obligated to rebel against it which might just make you even more tired. the only way is to get your own energy back, and that doesn't come from any special routine but just by being really honest with what you're enjoying and not enjoying, with what you really think, like, "I'm fricking tired." the fact you can say that is already a good sign. the truly fricked ones in life are those committed to pretending they aren't tired no matter what.
>the truly fricked ones in life are those committed to pretending they aren't tired no matter what.
nah, I wish I could delude myself into having motivation and putting more effort into my life. I don't know when exactly things went so wrong, but my journey of self-discovery has led me walking in circles, constantly trying to break myself out of trances where I'm either trying too hard and being extremely frustrated, or not trying at all and feeling shitty about myself 24/7.
I've yet to find a winning formula for my fricked up mind, but I guess I'm just going to keep trying, you only live once, after all
This.
These boomers couldn't die fast enough.
They already ruined the lives of my cousins and used their student grants to buy shit for themselves, and still have the gall to tell them to move out as soon as they get jobs in this moronic market.
Absolutely worthless. I'll raise a glass of wine when they all die and piss on their graves the same day.
Frick you, boomers.
That reminds me of that story where this one dude's grandparents took their cousin in after his parents died. Then when he was 18 he started saving up for a car from his job so he could commute to college, and his grandparents instantly kicked him out and cut him off because he had a job and could fend for himself and pay his college like they did when they were young, so he dropped out of college and took a full time job at like a warehouse just to be able to afford rent in his area.
Why do you even go? You're a fricking adult, just stay home and ignore all phone calls. Its not mandatory if you aren't living in the house it happens in
>Why do you even go?
Because almost universally you're pressured into it or if you're living with parents, they'll threaten to cut you off and kick you out onto the streets if you don't go. They literally rig things so you HAVE to go or they'll tank your ability to interact with the outside world or support yourself into the gutter out of spite.
People who can just ignore them and stay home are the lucky ones.
>hate your entire family and want to cut them off >"if you stop talking to them, they will cut you off and leave you alone"
Whats the issue here? Can't fend for yourself, you sad little sacks of shit? Maybe take responsibility for your own life and stop b***hing, you have an entire year to get your shit together and avoid this situation next holiday season
This.

The fact this is becoming more and more common should be raising all sorts of warning bells, but society has conditioned people to accept this sort of nonsense.
For a moment, I feared about some NTR bullshit where the Christmas was ruined by fat bastard, American soldier from Okinawa, Okinawa tanned guy with hawaian shirt and Akira Nishikiyama who shouts "Ten years of protected sex made you a fricking pussy."
Yesterday, while we were watching my birds mingle, my mom asked me to find someone I can have big, Christmas gatherings for the rest of my life with. Little does she know, that's been my plan for years.
For a bit of context: we haven't had family Christmas gatherings in years due to relations falling apart and this was the aftermath of the Christmas fight she has with my dad every year over fricking insignificant bullshit. I'm surrounded by people I love, and yet I still feel incredibly fricking lonely.
Older generations sold the world to capitalism and the young are paying the price.
Welcome to the new world, where killing your relatives isn't the moral choice, but the right one.
The vast, vast majority of the global population is incapable of distinguishing between what corporations define as "capitalism" and the original nebulous ideal that has never been reliably implemented in human history.

lol, enjoy your ignorance I guess. Dunno why I even bother
For the record, both capitalism and communism are dumb and flawed as frick.
At least your mom can have real conversations with you. I’m in your boat but I don’t even have that. No one in my family has ever spoken to me as a human being ever
I did last year and the year before but I feel very very lucky that I've spent it with someone else this year.
We're gonna watch Wotakoi, and probably play some fightan. Godspeed everyone, we're all gonna make it someday.
i bought this game on the steam sale because it was an overwhelmingly positive review.
i’m 4 hours in and had like maybe 7 fights. is this game just japanese highschool life simulator?
Cheer up, anon. I dropped out of uni and went full NEET for several years. I don't know your circumstances but eventually even I managed to get a job in the field I studied. We're all gonna make it.
>I graduated uni recently and my cousins can't stop asking me when I'm getting a job.
you can either have a job or a boj, and they're ultimately the same. I hope you're enjoying your boj while it lasts.
visited my mother and father for dinner.
dad has dementia and is going to die sometime in 2024 to stage 4 colon cancer
they were having a fight over the online radio not working he also forgot he had a gift for me so i got a text i am getting it tomorrow
There's no point in going to see Christmas lights if you don't have someone and you're just gonna be bitter at all the normies there so might as well stay home
But I did visit family and had a christmas dinner, anon. I'm not sure what switched in my brain, but suddeny I became appreciative of being part of a relatively nice family.
I wish. I have to always hang out with my family and I'm just so tired. I'm glad I'm finally alone now so I can engage in my favorite activities: Playing vidya and shitposting on this board.
As a child Christmas represented a magical potential. The possibility for another life that is so much more than our usual lives. As an adult it is basically a social checkpoint with pretty lights. No use sentimentalizing it.
Hate how during Christmas there all this pressure to answer for what your life is. b***h where were you the rest of the year? Don't even PRETEND you care ugh.
Most of these narcissists just want to make you feel miserable on what's supposed to be a time for sharing and caring - they literally feed on it. It's best to ignore them or give non-answers if you do since all they want is to make you squirm.
It’s more like they are just doing routine socializing and you wilt under the questions because it snaps you out of your self delusion and forces you to confront the failure of your disgusting choices. And then like a typical untermensch you get mad at them for your own shit life
It's a matter of clout and attention for them - to them, you being an accessory = more attention, and that's the only thing that sparks joy in a narcissist's brain.
I would go over to my extended families house for Christmas dinner, but I can't. If I do I'd have to tell them why the only other member of my immediate family isn't there. They died 4 days before Christmas. If I go over there and tell them that, I'm going to ruin Christmas for them. So I'm skipping it this year, and I'll tell them after new years
No I spent it watching my parents drunkenly fight while I try to eat my Christmas dinner without crying...
I hate this place, I wish I had the money to leave.
>all the gays going "HUUUURGH I WAS FORCED TO BE WITH MY FAMILH WHEN I COULD JUST PLAY VIDYA"
You're going to have long, cold, sleepless nights staring into darkness and thinking about all the countless moments when you pushed away yout family and other people just to stare at a screen and play whatever slop came out recently, knowing full well that you are alone and can never turn back time
And it will happen before you know it - time is a unstoppable force, and strikes without mercy.
My family are literally gaslighting abusers who hate me and think of me only as their accessory and have done so since I was a kid and before I was old enough to realize they never actually loved me. Frick 'em. I'll take being alone forever if it means I'll never have to deal with them or people like them ever again.
All they'll have flicking in from of their eyes is years of abusefrom family, and despite feeling a little cold either outside or inside, they'll be glad they decided to not endure it any more. Maybe they'd wish they could be more open with other people, or maybe they could do something to prevent such situation with family, but it is not the worst outcome - they can spend their time at peace. Some people don't spend time with their family for a reason.
Of course it is. You've got Covid, RSV and the flu out there right now. Something like 3/4 of the hospital beds in the US are filled with people that have Covid. Its not killing as many people as it was, but its still getting a lot of people really sick
Made contact with my dad and step siblings for the first time in 11 years, it's been I think 15 years since I spent a Christmas with my dad. It was nice having an actual Christmas for once and not spend it completely alone, but I can't help but feel completely alien to them, I'm just there silently as my siblings are all chatting with each other along with my dad.
Just keep showing up. You've been apart. Grow your relationship. You're all each other have. And its good you're doing it now. It would suck to never have had the chance at all
Kind of can't, we live in separate states but my pops said I can move in with them once they get a home (they live in an apartment). But that's obviously gonna take a long while. I can't exactly visit often since I'm a wagie and flights burn my bank account (plus there's been disputes between my dad and step mom aswell) >You're all each other have
No they all have friends they prefer to around. They're at the age where they all prefer to do their own thing which makes it a bit harder to try to talk or connect with them. Plus I'm too awkward to talk to it seems, they'll talk to each other on and on but hardly anything to me. Wish I actually grew up with them instead and be close to my sister again like when we were kids
>Have literally no living family >Friends are all doing shit with their families >Don't have a girlfriend because the only women interested in me are gold diggers that are just looking for someone to pay for their children no mater how hard I look
What do you expect of me? I did buy my cats a cute little house to sleep in though.
>have two kids and married >spend all my money on presents for other people >get jack shit in return >spend only 3 days I have off with people I see once a year >have wife's family over make a huge dinner takes 3 hours cooking and cleaning >wife is PMSing and get into nonstop fights with her due to all her fricking bullshit >have next 3 weeks work booked solid
I'd rather spend it alone in a room sounds fricking fantastic
where am i supposed to spend it
A Christmas dinner with your relatives where half of them hate each other but aren't enough of adults to actually deal with the issue so they're just passive aggressive with each other the whole fricking day, the other half don't want to be there, and you couldn't care less about everyone else there. The optimal Christmas gathering.
Are American families really like this?
More and more over time this became my experience until they all stopped showing up.
I skipped out on Christmas because my sister came to town and I want nothing to do with her. sucks too because I wanted to see my family and eat
You guys should frick it out.
Yes. I value my fricking silence.
This basically. I only really go for the food and nothing else.
Thats my moms side of the family, my dads is usually smaller but closer and a lot less passive aggressive shit
I went to my dad and he cooked really delicious food for me and my brother.
I love them. Great Christmas. Not everything has to be bad and terrible
Cherish your dad, anon.
yep, our cousins and whole extended family dont even talk to our side anymore ever since covid cause they dont want to deal with bullshit. its for the better
This is why I skipped out on Christmas this year lol
i spent it sleeping all day xd
Jealous?
The frick else am I going to do? My family celebrated Christmas on the 23rd like we do every year
I wasn't alone, I had my computer friends
>bedroom
I live with my parents and my PC is in the LIVING ROOM and I sleep on the couch.
Suck my dick. I got work tomorrow.
I wish i could... at least I'm going to spend the new year's eve playing skyrim and watching Love Live.
I went to a christmas eve dinner
No I spent it alone and drunk in the living room, STUPID
Frick off
Just how I like it. I'll go there once dinner's ready.
Mommy sex
I'm sick, so at least this year I have an excuse.
Oh I'm sorry.

You sound very sad anon
Pic checks out
Go see a therapist homosexual
It's usually the other way around.
Your stupid mother's fault for letting David into her life. Should have known better if she had any brains.
I spent it alone on my couch in my own apartment with my cat
Bro couldn't even wait until after christmas? that's fricked up man
>It's just porn
Of course it is.
WHY WOULD IT BE ANYTHING ELSE
>Wholesome vanilla sex with your wife on Christmas day
Just admit it makes you jealous instead of b***hing about a non-issue.
Jealous?
You're projecting.
I have no reason to project because I have a wife who I love very much.
Check her phone, then.
Surely she's not cheating on you on the side when you're not looking.
I had a fight with my family and now we're all sad. It sucks, I wish I hadn't come.
it's fine anon that's not your fault. it's about time you stop trying to socialize. You're just hurting other people and hurting yourself. Nobody wants you around. Let the normies enjoy this fake happiness.

Nope. Had a nice christmas dinner with my parents and drank cider all night 🙂
Next year will surely be different
okay so um why did the uh *checks notes* um chicken cross the road?
Why?
to get away from its family
cuz Black folk need their kfc
I did last year and the year before but I feel very very lucky that I've spent it with someone else this year.
We're gonna watch Wotakoi, and probably play some fightan. Godspeed everyone, we're all gonna make it someday.
Alone? But I'm spending it here with (You), anon.
I spent christmas watching John Carpenter movies with my mother.
All of you are my friends.
I love you
I can’t wait to sit in silence until someone makes fun of me for being a college dropout. Why do my parents force me to go to this shit ahhhhh
i bought this game on the steam sale because it was an overwhelmingly positive review.
i’m 4 hours in and had like maybe 7 fights. is this game just japanese highschool life simulator?
I believe you anon, no matter what the others might say
just keep playing, you'll get lots of fights soon. it is a hybrid rpg/social sim by the way.
Anon, Jrpg's always have a 6 gorriliin hour intro.
I spent about an hour or so with family, that's more than most other days of the year.
No actually, I spent it being reviled by my family for not fitting in.
Just Christmas. We do everything on Christmas Eve since most places are still open so if we forgot to get something we can still run out and get it.
I graduated uni recently and my cousins can't stop asking me when I'm getting a job.
Cheer up, anon. I dropped out of uni and went full NEET for several years. I don't know your circumstances but eventually even I managed to get a job in the field I studied. We're all gonna make it.

>hey man do you have a girlfriend yet?
I'm smart enough to let myself skip some years and instead play vidya.
my gf is long distance what else can I do
Ask her how was chistmas with tyrone
I wish. I have to always hang out with my family and I'm just so tired. I'm glad I'm finally alone now so I can engage in my favorite activities: Playing vidya and shitposting on this board.

You didn't specify good games.
bamham oranges
Yakuza 0 1 and 2 take place during Christmas
>christmas in Japan where they don't even get the day off
That is cool tho lol
Is Christmas to them what Valentine's is the to the whole world, a "holiday" that only exists to sell overpriced merchandise?
Yeah and apparently a day to eat KFC for some frickin reason.
I want to die but I'm too afraid of failing and pain.
heh yeah :3
Im gonna leave my bedroom in a bit to magdump a few in the backyard
why do my parents drag me to these events? they don’t even like going to them but they guilt trip me.
It's a matter of clout and attention for them - to them, you being an accessory = more attention, and that's the only thing that sparks joy in a narcissist's brain.
I would go over to my extended families house for Christmas dinner, but I can't. If I do I'd have to tell them why the only other member of my immediate family isn't there. They died 4 days before Christmas. If I go over there and tell them that, I'm going to ruin Christmas for them. So I'm skipping it this year, and I'll tell them after new years
;_;
wtf I'm sorry you have to deal with that anon
I honestly with all my heart wish you the best
What drives someone to be mean on purpose like OP? On a holiday no less.
All the mean people just hide behind a veneer of "cheer" on holidays. Its not like those people turn over a new leaf for a day...
Its projection. OP is probably alone and just wants to know there are others out there like them. So then they're not so alone with that feeling
I was ill OP you frick
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
have a nice day.
Honestly tho it was a crazy year...
The fact that buttholes don't get it is actually based.
Like I ever wanted their approval XD
I was in my room, but I wasnt alone
I did visit my relatives for christmas eve dinner and it was garbage, never again
Reminder that if you are not alone for Christmas, you don't belong in Ganker and should go back.
Yes because I’m Je-wait a minute I’m not falling for that
>he
How to get a Christmas cake maid teacher gf?
No I spent it watching my parents drunkenly fight while I try to eat my Christmas dinner without crying...
I hate this place, I wish I had the money to leave.
>all the gays going "HUUUURGH I WAS FORCED TO BE WITH MY FAMILH WHEN I COULD JUST PLAY VIDYA"
You're going to have long, cold, sleepless nights staring into darkness and thinking about all the countless moments when you pushed away yout family and other people just to stare at a screen and play whatever slop came out recently, knowing full well that you are alone and can never turn back time
And it will happen before you know it - time is a unstoppable force, and strikes without mercy.
My family are literally gaslighting abusers who hate me and think of me only as their accessory and have done so since I was a kid and before I was old enough to realize they never actually loved me. Frick 'em. I'll take being alone forever if it means I'll never have to deal with them or people like them ever again.
All they'll have flicking in from of their eyes is years of abusefrom family, and despite feeling a little cold either outside or inside, they'll be glad they decided to not endure it any more. Maybe they'd wish they could be more open with other people, or maybe they could do something to prevent such situation with family, but it is not the worst outcome - they can spend their time at peace. Some people don't spend time with their family for a reason.
I was also furiously jerking off
it's not even my bedroom and mym mom got sick
I want to spend Christmas with my wife and kid but I'm stuck bedridden. It sucks.
hope you infect them and they all perish from the complications
I hope this doesn't happen, and that you get well soon instead.
My brother brought his girlfriend for Christmas
Later it turned out she's sick with chinaflu
Now me and my parents have covid
Thanks b***h
Covid is still a thing?
It never was.
Of course it is. You've got Covid, RSV and the flu out there right now. Something like 3/4 of the hospital beds in the US are filled with people that have Covid. Its not killing as many people as it was, but its still getting a lot of people really sick
holy crap...I think I'm going to get my next jap guys. remember to wear that mask and stay safe during the new normal!
should fricked her
should have taken the booster shots
Did you took the vax?
Unfortunately I didn't, but I should've...
No my dog's here too b***h.
I wish I had family to spend Christmas with
Yes but I was chatting in Japanese with my gf who is on the other side of the world.
>gf
It's rude to fap in front of company
Made contact with my dad and step siblings for the first time in 11 years, it's been I think 15 years since I spent a Christmas with my dad. It was nice having an actual Christmas for once and not spend it completely alone, but I can't help but feel completely alien to them, I'm just there silently as my siblings are all chatting with each other along with my dad.
Just keep showing up. You've been apart. Grow your relationship. You're all each other have. And its good you're doing it now. It would suck to never have had the chance at all
Kind of can't, we live in separate states but my pops said I can move in with them once they get a home (they live in an apartment). But that's obviously gonna take a long while. I can't exactly visit often since I'm a wagie and flights burn my bank account (plus there's been disputes between my dad and step mom aswell)
>You're all each other have
No they all have friends they prefer to around. They're at the age where they all prefer to do their own thing which makes it a bit harder to try to talk or connect with them. Plus I'm too awkward to talk to it seems, they'll talk to each other on and on but hardly anything to me. Wish I actually grew up with them instead and be close to my sister again like when we were kids
Don't waste your time. Make your own family and don't invite them.
>Have literally no living family
>Friends are all doing shit with their families
>Don't have a girlfriend because the only women interested in me are gold diggers that are just looking for someone to pay for their children no mater how hard I look
What do you expect of me? I did buy my cats a cute little house to sleep in though.
i spent it with my family, and hours before xmas eve i spent it with my church with mass
Sex with hags
This Christmas we should all remember that Hitler (from the 1992 hit video game Wolfenstein 3D) was right.
