    Who cares and no.    This morning 27 percent of the people in America think that Trump is saving them money and is a great person and leader.

    That is what I care about.  

    THAT.

    HAAA  No, actually I was just looking for a good place to land this drawing that took me so LONG to download.  So, I twisted my answer to fit even though it was a very flat landing.  LOL  Sorry, I figured 99 could handle it.

    "Who cares"?

    Once again you start with that. If you don't care, you're perfectly entitled. If others care, why denigrate them?  They are just as entitled as you are. Every single one of your posts could also be answered with a "who cares".

    Nope.  I don't buy stuff for holidays.  They call me Ebenezer.

    No.  I dropped out of the gift-giving craziness years ago.  I do not buy Christmas gifts.  We celebrate Christmas for what it really is.  I buy really good birthday gifts though.  :)

  • Nah. I don't spend a lot of money on gifts. The people who receive gifts from me know and accept that. :P

  • Definitely not me.  I would have already been in debt long before the holiday season even started.

    So, does that mean these people did NOT have debt before Christmas?
    Given that the average American is thousands of dollars in debt, these must be people like teens with their first job.
