My mother bought me a kidsmagazine to my BD.

Today is my birthday, and as I walked downstairs I saw the present from her on the desk. I opened it ...and it was a kidsmagazine about Anime Am I, just because an animefan doomed to baby? Normaly I don't care about what ppl think - but my family should ought to have known better.

Then buy coloured pencils for your mother on her next birthday.
Of course, hide the real present until later on.

Happy birthday Toriyama, and may you live long and prosper.

And it's awful to receive a kids magazine just because you like animes (this is common in our society ).

Happy bd...

well, in my experience it is VERY hard (or i am too lazy) to find a good present for some one (this is partially why I don't much care for christmas anymore). Maybe she didn't know what to get you...

Greetings,

I hate all this "gifts" thing. When you receive a gift you fell obliged to give a gift in another occasion, which can be pretty hard (I suck at choosing presents). Besides being an atheist, this is another reason for me to dislike christmas.

But receiving a kid magazine is still bad

Live long and prosper.

I'm an atheist but enjoy Xmas ... yeah, I still don't have to buy gifts for others

BTW, Boltzmann, why don't you connect ICQ?

I don't see any problem in being an atheist and enjoying christmas. But I don't like it because all the gift giving thing (and some other details not worth mentioning here).

And I haven't connected on ICQ because for some weird reason it was crashing whenever I opened IE. So I had to close it for the rest of the day. Hopefully tomorrow I'll solve the problem.

What only matters is the thought that was taken into consideration. Just be thankful you have a mom that knows what anime is
