To be sure, the holiday season is stressful. If it's not about hiding your drug use from your dysfunctional family, it's about your crushing inability to find a proper gift for your significant other.

"It was fucking humiliating is what it was. You fucking opened it and looked at this beautiful fucking coat and you just didn't give a fuck. In front of our fucking friends."

"I ... this is why you're crying? I, well, I mean ... I looked at it and, you know ... I already have a blue coat. I guess I don't understand the practicality of another one."

"It's fucking beautiful. It's fucking Paul Smith you asshole."

With that in mind, what's your favorite Christmas memory? (Or Hannukah secret...)
