Depends, this christmas my folks kinda held back on pressies, they said 19's getting a bit old for a lot of things

jeeeeeesus dude. that is a bit spoiled, but you're not a spoiled kid. you're a sweetie here. just one with bad taste in music ;)

my folks always went a bit over board on Christmas, but for the most part they never got me shit for my birthday, one year they even forgot it. haha god I love my parents.

Jesus. I think if I added up everything I've ever gotten for Christmas, you got more this year than I did.

My mom splurged and got me a $249 set of speakers, then I got a book from each of my siblings and some utilitarian shit like boxers and toothpaste. My brother got his heat bill paid for and some cash, and my sister got a camera. Gift giving was over in about 4 minutes.
