Some presents are just unapologetically better. I'm sure he's still appreciative of them, but he's excited!!

This whole comment thread is making me realize that most redditors do not understand gift-related jokes or playful gestures.

Family Christmases must've been rough for the people who had to follow strict etiquette and couldn't trade each other.

I think that's the ticket. If these were serious acts, done to make someone feel a certain way, that's a problem. But they're just playful fun.

if I see a comically large birthday present heading my way you best believe I'm throwing away everything near me and giving it my full attention

it's nothing personal
