If you're asian and you live in North America and your family doesn't celebrate the holidays but you dont know why... here's the answer. THEY'RE CHEAP! Lights, the hydro bill for those lights, gifts, Kenny G Christmas CD's just aren't worth the expenditure in the eyes of traditional old school thinking Asians.
Growing up in a very traditional Chinese household in Canada, the holidays always sucked b/c Christmas was never celebrated b/c of my frugal folks. At school, the stories we read and the things the pasty white kids would say would put these grandeur thoughts in my head of beautifully decorate trees, delectable cookies and a jolly fat guy coming down my chimney with a gift for you on Christmas morning.
I thought I'd try my hand at this beleif in Santa thing and went so far as to write to the fat fuck too. Little did I know that the pricks at Canada Post sent a standardized reply to any miniature imbecile dumb enough to write and send a letter to a postal code that read H0H-0H0. That shit gave me hope. I waited all night that Christmas eve in 1990 and all I witnessed through the windows were the other families on the block opening their gifts. That was the day, the bitter and cynical Kev was born
I wanted a Power Wheels Jeep so badly. Yes, I know they were as much as Hyundai back then but it was an effin motorized full sized toy for little twerps like me. Who wants to be sucker pedaling on a bike on his own power. That’s queerer than a 3 dollar bill. I wanted to roll like this happy white kid who looks like a straight up pimp. That girl sitting on the passenger side certainly ain't messin with no scrub.

I would have given anything for a Power Wheels Jeep. Even if a child predator approached me and offered me the mere prospect of getting one, I would have hopped in their creepy van.
I asked my parents whey they never bought just me a power wheels jeep and their reason… they didn’t want growing up to be a fatass hah. Oh the things cheap Chinese parents say to their young.
What was that one item that you wanted sooo badly but never got on Christmas morning? |
