-Hi! How are you?
-Oh, Good. How are you?
-Oh, Good, just getting some Christmas shopping done. Have you finished yet?
-Not even close. I don't know. I kind of hate Christmas.
-Hate Christmas? Why?
-I don't know. Just a bunch of capitalist brainwashing.
-I guess, yeah. Yeah, that's for sure.
-I don't know.
-I mean it also proves that capitalism isn't natural for human beings.
-How's that?
-I mean, capitalism and the free hand of the market and all that. We're supposed to be rational consumers. But the most rational thing would either be not buying each other gifts, or just saying I'd like cash and hoping the other person gives you more than you give them.
-Hahaha.
-Haha. I'm serious. Kind of. Christmas proves, at least a little, we aren't rational. We like gifts more than money. Thoughtful gifts at least.
-I guess so. Haha.
-Haha
-Still gotta wait til pay day to get my shopping started.
