Chrismas Small Talk

[Spacecadet]

I heard a rumour that you don't really do you!

Am i being thick or does that not make sense?

[original PM]

your implication with the comment was that you may need to remember not to be too cheerful as people may suspect you of having an affair.

My comment was meant to imply that that was highly unlikely!

I'm not as miserable in real life as my internet persona might suggest

talk about their holidays,
read some of the crap jokes from the crackers
tell them about your strange neighbours
talk about the dog
ask him about his boss
tell him about how you are experimenting with cooking popcorn (or similar)

dont mention -
religion
politics
death
wars
global warming


small talk - it aint easy - but someones got to do it

Just completely ignore them and go about your business as if they weren't there - it will be like the Xmas you've always dreamed of

That plan fails if a BJ under the tree is your dream Xmas.

Why not appear to get raving drunk very early in the morning.

Why pretend?

There is a lot to be said for going out over Christmas, and i mean way out like barbados or skiing.

We have to have the wifes sister and husband round, they have never been on holiday only ever go shopping when he is not at work and they have not a single friend, they bring nothing to the party. me and my son's have a competition to see how long the husband can go without uttering the words "A bloke at work" then we revert to how many times in the day he says it.

Apart from the obvious, (telling them to feck off) what am i going to do!!!

Do the christmas quiz in the newspaper.

HTH.

Live the dream - just ask nicely.
