Ok, I've got several friends who have taken to social media (primarily FB) and posted their Xmas wants list.
To me, it just seems tacky,with a side order of entitlement. Sure, there are things I would like, but I can't bring myself to use social media to solicit it.
I just saw one person do that today .... and had I not already had all the confirmation I needed that she's a self-absorbed idiot, it might have been revealing.
