It happens every bloody Chrissie.
Perhaps it comes from that grot Aunty who always reeks of ciggies, or maybe it’s that deadshit from the sales department who everyone agrees is “just a bit off”, but regardless of which tertiary social tier acquaintance it comes from, you’re almost definitely gonna receive an irredeemably shithouse Christmas present in the coming weeks.
The age-old art of lying through your fucking teeth in order to not upset someone who’s just bequeathed you a USB powered desk-fan is a skill that apparently many of us utilise this time of year, with a new report from Groupon Australia finding 92% of Aussies admitting they lie when they receive a Xmas gift they think is straight-up garbo.
