But how classless to make a public post showing your disappointment. What an embarrasment to the poor person who went out, picked out an ornament and mailed it to you.

Correction: XXX is not an officially sanctioned 'classless poster.' Any implied association is false and coincidental. No ferrets or moles were hurt in the writing of this post.

Also, I don't think there's a problem with sending an ornament for the SS. i personally wouldn;t do it because people are already getting ornaments, BUT maybe this person is complaining because the person who sent them the SS gift got mixed up and sent them an ornament based on the ornament rules ($7 limit) and not the SS ru;es ($20 limit).I'd be pretty annoyed if I sent out a $20 gift and got a $7 gift back if the rules said $20

Question...shouldn't it be really easy to figure out who XXX is????

The earlier portions of this thread are freaking HILLARIOUS. I especially liked the Sister Flavinia comment....

Seriously though, do you know how crappy the person who sent the ornament out must feel. xxx if you don't want it, I'll f/m you my address and you can send it to me. I'll accept any unwanted gifts (except the plastic quilted pocketbook from grandma).

COME ON YOU KNOW YOU WANT IT!!!

btw i almost peed myself!

Re: Whats the difference? Do you know?

I just saw this thread and am really pissed off at the rudeness. I for one GAVE A really pretty ornament with an ornament holder to MRSTC because in her SS questionnaire she answered yes to liking holiday decorations. I don't think she was the one that started this (especially since she thanked me for and complimented it in the thank you thread) but whoever did is a real piece of work. I know that for one, many people love ornaments and would consider them a nice gift and also that an ornament does NOT = cheap! I know my gift hit the price for SS and it was an ornament!!! I think whoever started this anonymously is is a selfish, rotten person that doesn't even deserve a gift at all- and there is MY TWO CENTS! You should feel ashamed of yourself, especially since the person who sent you an ornament probably put a lot of thought into picking it out! I am sorry to the rest of you for going on but I am COMPLETELY APPALLED- people like you do not deserve to even be a member, never mind participate in anything nice that is thought up on this site.
