It will always crack me up
That every year, there's SS drama. Someone gets shafted, someone's gift gets lost in the mail, someone fails to acknowledge their SS, someone gets an awesomely awesome gift that makes all the rest of us feel inadequate, and every day there's at least one post taking a tally of those who are still giftless.
Between this and Bumpa, we've got a helluva Xmas tradition going on.
Re: It will always crack me up
i know. i am not sure if this tradition ruins the exchange, or makes it more lively.
i know for sure i'm getting shafted. it's just the right way to end the year!
i've never participated. because i know i would be the one shafting people.
i know better than to set myself up for that.

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
This is why I paid for delivery confirmation.
what always gets me are the people who ultimately never send anything, who were too busy. i know things happen and sometimes life gets in the way - but it's really rude, and sometimes a little hard to believe that this person didn't have any free time to mail something to their SS when we all know they still have other responsibilities to take care of that haven't been tossed to the side.
i am sure WW SS is very low on all of our priority lists, but it's just so damn rude. the ones who participate and follow through are busy also and have stuff going on, yet we all manage to get it done.
anyway, it's really not this serious in the end. i am glad i follow through and just like seeing what everyone gets. i just hope the shafting is minimal this year!
I guess I don't understand how a person can't buy and mail a gift in two months. I know I don't have kids, a husband, travel for work, but you don't have to leave your house to buy a gift if it comes to that.
Plus, if there was any doubt that my money was looking funny, then I would have passed on the SS exchange for this year.
My 2 cents.
Zilla, I don't think you're going to get shafted.
^this. I'm pretty sure I did anyway.
I completely agree. There really is no good excuse. And if something did come up and it was virtually impossible to follow through, you should send your SS a message through Elfster and let them know whats up, so they're not kept waiting and wondering.
I should have done the delivery confirmation thing, as it's been plenty of time since I sent it and haven't heard anything from her either.
I also know that this will all be forgotten come OCT 2010, and everyone will be back on the SS bandwagon again.
I can't believe there's always such drama associate with SS. I know you are smart ladies, which is what baffles me when there's always such confusion as to how things work and whatnot.
PS. I can see everyone's draws. If you haven't received a gift yet, I'll be glad to send them a nasty gram and find out what's up- if they forgot or if it's in the mail. Just tell me who hasn't received it because I'm not digging through the 10x a day "But I didn't get my present! Waaaah!" posts
