Every year, they do a White Elephant Gift Exchange (where you can steal gifts from other people, don't ask it's a whole thing) and when the 7th person was supposed to go get or steal a gift, almost everyone in the room (mostly adults and old people) erupted into a joint "SIX SEVEN!"
I have lost all respect for everyone there. Luckily my parents and Grandma didn't, so I don't have to hang my head in shame.
Oh god. I can’t imagine having to go through that traumatic experience.
Just from reading that...
I am forcibly reminded of the holocaust.
It was towards the end, luckily.
It'll take a while for them to re-earn my respect though. Their excuse was "Now that you kids don't wanna say it, that gives us the right to" or something stupid like that.
But I suppose it is an old person's job to make us kids cringe as hard as possible...
What do these two things have in common?
At a gift exchange I got a huge collection of king size Kit-Kats.
