We did elfster this year. I equate it to spending $50 on someone else, but getting $50 worth of stuff I needed.
I personally am very happy with my socks and a pillow! (Programming socks would have been cool too though)
But were they a wool blend? Because then I’m not that mad these days lol.
50% merino wool socks. <3
I would be happy if they were programming socks :3
True story. It took me a couple of hours to settle into the the realization that yes that was the gift and no there wasn’t something puny or extra coming my way. That was just it. Socks.
From one of the few people who know ne best and could’ve gotten me anything.
Still not sure if there’s and what’s the message behind the socks.
Merry Crisis!
You can literally reverse these pictures once you are over the age of thirty.
Damn right
In my 20s currently. I only got socks and underwear and I am very pleased about it.
Good quality socks as a gift is awesome.
You wouldn’t spend €20 on a pair yourself. But that is totally inside a gift budget.
The only gift I got was my dog puking on my comforter at 5am. I’d cry tears of gratitude if someone bought me socks.
Update: My HOA president left a baggie of dog treats at my door, addressed to my dog from her dog. He loved them and is now passed out in front of the fireplace. ❤️ Merry Christmas all!
Unpopular opinion: receiving Spocks is awesome! 😎
Oh, is that not what it was? Well, I’m sure the “socks” are fine too! 😜
Sad story about her mental health. Hope she’s doing better.
Alpaca or wool socks are some of the best gifts you can get!
I bought myself 2 pair of alpaca wool socks and it was like low grit sandpaper on my heels.
But then again that’s my own fault for buying them on amazon
Odd, guess theres a lot of variability to such things. I have an alpaca hoodie which is a bit scruffy but I wouldn’t describe it as sandpaper at all. My alpaca socks are some of the softest things I’ve ever touched.
hats off for not using jennifer lien’s actual ‘after’ photo
I got 15 pairs of socks this morning. It was a pretty good haul!
I had to tell people stop getting me socks when I filled a second sock drawer
I buy all my own socks, so I only have one kind of white sock and one kind of black sock. I do this so putting away the laundry feels a lot easier for me. I was getting a little overwhelmed before with searching for each sock’s mate every week.
Reminder, Kes is only like 2, at that age, getting only socks would suck.
