The Christmas present ticked me off!

After twenty years of friendship, he knew how I felt about presents and Christmas. The wondrous ideal of love, family and religious worship, that Christmas is, was disappearing; being bastardized by the rapacious celebrations of today’s materialistic society. I abhor that loss of spirituality and introspection.

How could he do this?

But remembering our loving friendship and the true gift of Christmas, the birth of our Savior, I opened the gift. Amongst the fluffy tissue, was a small box. The label read don’t push. I pushed it creating a booming shout, "Bah Humbug"!

LMAO!
