3. Being Visibly Distraught When You Opened A Present And It Was Clothes
Honestly though. What fresh hell is this? Youre handed another present one you hoped wasnt yours because you had a nagging suspicion of what it would be and your worst fear comes true: its a jumper. Or a smart shirt for family occasions. Or pyjamas. Basically, its not a toy. Ostensibly, it was just a waste of valuable toy space under the tree. You were more impressed by the snazzy wrapping paper it was covered with. You dismissively toss it to one side and carry on opening your real presents. Now technically this isnt something you miss because it spoilt all the fun. But its included because if you have a sibling and they were the one who drew the short straw, it provided hours of ammunition and goading. And thats what Christmas is all about: gift-based one-upmanship.
