how come when you tell someone not to get you anything for your birthday, they just ignore that and get you something that you dont really want/need anyway.

One of my dogs wasn't feeling well the last couple of days, so an exam and a blood panel later I'm out $230.

This is a pet peeve of mine that I realize comes across as kind of assholish since it appears that I dont appreciate the thought.
I feel badly to how I react to gifts as well. I have a rather narrow set of interests--I like sports, I like music, and...that pretty much covers it. And year after year after year I get gifts from even family members that has nothing to do with sports or music. Outside I try to fake it, but inside I keep myself thinking that its as if they don't know me at all.

Fuck you, you get a one line FB post or nothing.
You lived another year? Congratulations! You deserve a reward!
Fuck birthdays. You don't get to celebrate being alive for another year until you get to 100. And then, it isn't so much an accomplishment as a fucking ordeal where your loved ones all wish you weren't around anymore, but you are tenacious and are sticking around just to fuck them. Your retirement savings ran out two decades ago, so you are just an incredible burden on your family and the government.
"Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II sends messages to Canadians who are 100 years of age or older and to couples who have been married for 60 years or more. These are issued by the Office of the Secretary to the Governor General."
That's it. You make it to 105 and she sends you another one.

My co-worker/friend/former roommate just attended her wedding shower a week ago. She hated it. Everyone there is just going to buy her a wedding gift, instead of spending $20 on a bunch of shit that she doesn't want, just give her a slightly more expensive wedding gift. The whole shower thing is stupid. Unless you are giving the Bride stuff that she needs FOR the wedding, what's the point of the second gift opening?

Yea, I get this. Plus there is stuff that I do NOT want people to buy for me...a hat, shirts, etc. I always end up getting some then feel bad when I never wear it.

Facebook is basically one big insecure pile of shit.
