I especially hate the diamond ads. Those commercials are designed to make just about everybody who doesn't either give or receive diamonds feel like shite. Very effective advertising, but it's still nasty.

Well! Now I can afford to be gracious and say, "Thanks just the same; I would never have let you give me so extravagant a gift." And I would even be polite enough not to mention that I have an entire hall closet full of the damn things and they just all fall out with an annoying clatter every time I go to grab my Red Wings jacket anyway.

This is my kind of gift exchange! Think of all the shopping and wrapping and shipping we'll eliminate!
