And so on this Christmas eve I share with you all my own narrow judgmental take on how life should be. Today's topic, lame people on Christmas.

Are you a Christmas lamer? Here are the signs:

10) You didn't send Christmas cards out this year.

9) You did send Christmas cards out but as emails.

8) You justified 9 or 10 because you were "so busy" this year (as opposed to everyone else)

7) Your "Christmas shopping" consisted of going to one big store (ala Target or Walmart or something) and buying all the gifts on your list in one swoop within a week or so of Christmas.

6) You have uttered the words "This time of year is so stressful" even once.

5) You gave "gift cards" as your primary gift to multiple people.

4) You suggested "drawing names" to get out of buying presents for your family.

3) You used the excuse "they are too hard to shop for" to justify why you waited until Christmas eve to shop for them and then purchased something really impersonal.

2) You had your wife or secretary do most of your Christmas shopping for you (including the gifts for them). Ahem.

1) You admit to doing these lame things but try to rationalize and justify your actions. If you're lame, like me, embrace it. Don't weasel out of your lameness. Either stop being lame or admit to being lame.

If you are a Christmas lamer, do something about it. Don't be lame. Or if you are lame, admit that you're lame. That's the first step. Unfortunately for me, that's not the last step...
