They say it’s better to give than to receive. How silly. I haven’t given any gifts in years — but I receive plenty and it’s awesome.

It is obviously better to receive than to give. Who wouldn’t want that? That old adage is just an all-too-clever ploy to get people to give more gifts so that others — like myself — can receive. It’s a brilliant idea.

And it’s working, by the way.

I have received everything from fruitcake to sweaters to light-up ties to parking tickets this season!

Receivingly,

Name your favorite gift this year. Do you think you enjoyed getting it more than the giver enjoyed giving it?
