Warning:

The post below (The Gift Cycle: I want out), despite it's healthy dose of cynicism, was written tongue in cheek. I exaggerated heavily to make a point about something I deem important.

Please know that I, the author, still love all the presents I've received and will receive. I also love Christmas, birthdays, and fluffy penguins--I'm not the cold hearted cynic the tone of the post implies I am.

Thank you for your loyalty to my blog.
