I'm not planning on spending a whole lot for the holidays this time around.

Looks like the sales of fur lined sinks and electric dog polishers will make or break the economy this year.

The 1%'s lapdogs honestly feel that this is the way a *normal* society should be. An entire economy controlled by whether the wealthiest one percent deign to reach into their backup backup backup investment accounts to give extravagant gifts to other 1%ers.

Spread it out more evenly and there will STILL be plenty of people wealthier than everyone else who can buy diamond encrusted coke spoons and ten thousand dollar toilets. Jewish princesses will still be able to afford a brand new nose. The rest of us will be able to afford a slightly higher quality of zircon encrusted tweezers, which will keep factories churning them out. When we have to call a plumber, perhaps it won't cost us half a week's pay. Wristwatches and Crisco will still be manufactured by job creators. People won't have to stay with their mama and have her do their laundry and cook for them.

It'd really be better.

Yeah, I don't really feel like going all out this Christmas. Maybe one of those singing cards and a gift certificate for everyone.

Lexus is counting on the 1%ers big time this year. Hell, the annual December sales thing started November 3rd.


F*ck you Lexus, all you are is a tarted up Toyota.

Why holiday sales may hinge on how the 1% feels.

1% looks at OWS demonstrations, decide to shrug:

antidisestablishmentarianism: Lexus is counting on the 1%ers big time this year. Hell, the annual December sales thing started November 3rd.

I never understood why one member of a marriage buying a car for the other member of a marriage made any sense at all.

I'd be pissed if I came home and my wife used our money to buy a luxury car without telling me.

That always confused me, too. Seems like alot of dough to have hidden in a slush fund your spouse doesn't know about.

I'm not gonna lie. I now want an electric dog polisher.


"But look at how shiny their coats are!"

I guess they plan to sell a lot of gold-plated helicopters if they think they can get the 1% to buy them out of this problem. The real problem is, was, and will always be the slump in demand brought on by the vicious ass-rape the 1% unleashes on the rest of us.

But I'm sure chucking another trillion or so at them in tax cuts will be a sufficiently large sacrifice to get the Job Creators to bless us mere mortals with their bounty of employment opportunities again. It has to work this time, because it's never worked before!

Xenu's Giant Pink Replicock: As always, I am not buying gifts and I warned people not to buy anything for me. If you're religious, and can find a baby Jesus to give stuff to, then go for it. Otherwise, don't give me stuff.

Won't turn down a gift card, which usually turns up from somewhere or another, and I'm fine with that.

That's funny. My friend's mom doesn't do gifts, cards, decorations...nuthing...because she's uber religious.

My family of four spent less than $200 on gifts last year for christmas - same as every year. If we need something, we buy it, else its just pointless...

Occupy the Gap? What kind of filthy rich person shops at the Gap?

stewbert: A good electric shaver is well out of my price range; IIRC they're a bit over $100. I'd be upset at her for spending money we don't have. Yeah, I'm broke.

The one I wanted until I found out how much it was is priced at $250.
