how to wrap Christmas presents: a guide

  1. Based on tonight's experiences, casperthegrumpyelf would like to help the Americans out there still wrapping pressies for Christmas.

    1. Assemble all required items: presents, wrapping paper, Sellotape, scissors, gift tags, pen, wine, large glass, more wine.

    2. Select a present. Open wrapping paper and spread out on floor. Measure present against it. Remove cat from centre of wrapping paper. Cut paper to required size. Take large slug of wine.

    3. Take Sellotape. Tear off a big strip with your teeth. Hold between your teeth while you go back to place paper over present. Remove cat from present.

    4. Realise that paper is slightly too short. Decide to bodge it by cutting a strip of extra paper and taping it down the middle to make a join. Take large slug of wine. Spend approximately 5 minutes per strip required searching for the end of the Sellotape. Take another large slug of wine.

    5. Fold ends of paper. Take large slug of wine. Attempt to make it neat then realise that you cut too much paper and at least it will be well padded. Remove cat from top of present. Take large slug of wine.

    6. Select a gift tag. One with penguins is always good. Realise pen is nowhere to be seen. Remove pen from cat. Take large slug of wine. Write label then attach to present. Move present and label falls off. Repeat all steps relating to Sellotape to reattach. Take large slug of wine. Realise that you can't now see who present is for as label won't turn over. Take a larger slug of wine and write on the paper.......


    And that's how I did it  good luck and

    5-Tape that shit

  5. remove pen from cat?

    Don't forget the last step...run out of wrapping paper and resort to using newspaper or giving up and putting a simple label/bow on instead. At that point you're too drunk to care what it looks like.....till in the morning?

    Either that or you end up wrapping the cat instead

    Merry Christmas all

  9. Yeah my daughter wants me to wrap the cat Chloe 

    And yeah the cat steals the damn pen. Today we've found him sat in a laundry basket and the other one in a Santa sack. They're fools 

  13. And there's a tv I bought my daughter for her room at my mum's, only second hand but since it's not in a box it may end up in a thick bin bag with a bow on yet  the few bits left the other half is wrapping while I cook dinner tomorrow while we wait for everyone to arrive lol
