I like the way giving gifts once a year frees me from the responsability of being generous the rest of the year.
A couple door-to-door bible peddlers came by my place once. I invited them to a neo-pagan Sabath - a weekly worship of Goddess. I offered the two well dressed young men to be the first sexual sacrificial offerings, since they were so pretty, and enthusiastically asked them to hold one moment so I could go get a book I had about dancing in the fires of passion with Goddess. They didn't even stick around long enough to see if I was serious.
