    I've had the Christmas from hell..anyone feel me?

    So on Christmas my sister decides to dump her fiance of 2 years. Which means she calls me and says I cannot come over and see my niece and nephew at all. Despite the fact that I spent $500 on them combined with an ipod touch for my niece and a PS3 for my nephew. When I try to push the issue my sister sends a profanity laced tirade my way via text. When I reply to her that I think her fiance is the fortunate one I get another profanity laced tirade from her ex-fiance who apparently still is living with her. So I'm 0 for 2.

    Fast forward to the day after Christmas. My stepmothers birthday is today. So I jokingly post the following Seinfeld quote on my stepsisters facebook:

    “Well, birthdays are merely symbolic of how another year has gone by and how little we've grown. No matter how desperate we are that someday a better self will emerge, with each flicker of the candles on the cake, we know it's not to be, that for the rest of our sad, wretched pathetic lives, this is who we areto the bitter end. Inevitably, irrevocably; happy birthday? No such thing.”

    To which I get the following reply:

    "All I have to say to you is that I have the best Mom in the world and why she ever felt bad for you last Christmas and tried to appologize to you is beyond me. Your the biggest pvssy I've ever meet in my life. Your such a waste to society. I could care less if your ugly @ss ever dropped off the face of this earth. No one cares about you!! Deal with it!!!!"

    So I've been cussed out now by 3 different people this Christmas and honestly I have no real idea why. This has been the worst Christmas I think i've ever had and it's disheartening. I don't understand why there is so much hatred from folks during the holiday season, especially relatives. It's very hard to take.

      Yeah man no kidding. Honestly I try not to let it get to me. I mean the fact that my family are a bunch of hate-filled drama queens is one thing but still, it's not easy. I mean I spend a lot of money on the kids in my family and honestly I think maybe I will have to give up on them in the future if this keeps up...

            Ouch.




            The good thing about family though is at some point, they do come back to you and ask for forgiveness. Eventually they'll realize their mistakes and apologize. Until then, don't sweat it. You're a good person and karma will occur soon.

              you know I don't think they will. That's the funny thing about this...I don't think you can say that it's just a blip on the radar. I think you can say it's a pattern that can be predicted. that's why I think I should learn something from this christmas.

                Its better to remain silent and be thought of an idiot then to speak up and remove all doubt.

                    I do find it rather interesting that you kept baiting her only to act surprised when you finally got a response from her. If she sends you a profanity filled text then ignore it and focus on whats most important, the kids, and try and set up another time to do the gift exchange with them but responding the way you did served no purpose other then to pour gasoline on the fire. If your biggest concern is giving them the gifts then mail them to her house if nothing else can be worked out, and if you dont feel comfortable doing that then return them but going back and forth with her wont solve anything in the end.

                    In terms of the whole facebook thing, why not just explain it was a quote from a show and was left jokingly and apologize if it offended anyone? Sure, she went off the deep end, and maybe an apology will make her respond in kind, but if you atleast do what you can to correct the situation and she still acts that way then you know you did what you could and move on.

                    Just my two cents.

                        Thats completely childish and wont work to solve anything. Are you wanting to completely write them off for good so youre trying to piss them all off as much as possible or would you like to have a solid, healthy relationship someday? Im sorry but doing things like what you mentioned above are normally reserved for 15 year olds who just got dumped by their girlfriend.

                          "Where do you think you're going? Nobody's leaving. Nobody's walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas. No, no. We're all in this together. This is a full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency here. We're gonna press on, and we're gonna have the hap, hap, happiest Christmas since Bing Crosby tap-danced with Danny ****ing Kaye. And when Santa squeezes his fat white arse down that chimney tonight, he's gonna find the jolliest bunch of arseholes this side of the nuthouse."

                            That sucks man. They don't seen to have understood you... especially with that joke. Maybe she's a little too sensitive and you should have thought about it before posting it, but that still seems like too harsh of a response. Keep your head up, man... we all have our bad days or string of days and it seems like you just hit yours at an unfortunate time. My Christmas wasn't too perfect either. And to counter that comment by your sister, ODogg, we here at OS care about you!

                              I like you Odogg, but you really need to think of other people's feeling for once. She just broke up with her guy. That is heavy stuff. So YOU couldn't give her kids these kick *** gifts. Oh well. Your sister is hurting she don't need her brother rippin on her. Step up man! Be a brother and let her know you are here for her.
