Yankee Swaps.....

Who's the Friggin Rocket Scientist who invented this. I can't stand them and it seems like everyone wants to do one.

I got one tonight, 2 tomorrow, 1 on Thursday, 1 on Christmas, and 1 next week.

If I do them I end up with Friggin Scented Candles and If I don't, then I'm a Kill Joy with no Christmas Spirit.

I Like Yankee Swaps about as much as Joe Pesci likes Drive Thru's in Lethal Weapon....."They Always %$%$%$%$ you at the Yankee Swap"

And I have issues Participating in ANYTHING with the Word "Yankee" in it

Yankee plug swap and one at home, thats it. The people at work were promptly told to kiss my ___ when I was asked. They called me scrouge for a week, but they left me the hell alone!

These can be great, you just need to get the right gift. Some porn tapes from the 70's, or a dime bag, for instance. Always sure to create interesting conversation.

I must agree....the past couple years I put in decent gifts.....to only get useless gifts.

For example:

One year I got 4 bath towels
One year I got a Life Magazine Coffee table book from Bldg 19 and 2 homemade Cd's with Lawrence Welk music
One year I got a Red Sox T -Shirt that was too small and a World Champions Hat that was missing the "C" on the hat (said hampions)
One year my smart A$$ Uncle boxed up a package of toilet paper...was a big box so I picked it......
