Plastic (not so) fantastic! A horror story of todays plastic society

So there I was, in the middle of Bargin-Mart, reluctantly doing my Christmas shopping (something I’d been hoping to put off for a few more weeks but since they were having a sale...) anyway, that’s when I noticed it. “Noticed what?” you might be asking. Well just hold your horses, I’m getting to it. Plastic! It is everywhere. Whatever happened to the good old days when things were made out of more reliable materials like wood and metal? These days everything is made out of cheap plastic crap! I needed to by a new dining table and chairs but all I could find was this pathetic plastic rubbish which broke when I sat on it (and no, it’s not just because I’m fat). They just don’t make things like they used to. Back in my day I could pick up my television and smash it on the ground and it wouldn’t even dent because it was made out of good old wood and metal. Now that I have a new (probably plastic) TV I can’t just pick it up and throw it around whenever I feel like it because it’s too breakable (so there goes my Friday night entertainment).  And also, I don’t know what to get Mr.McNugget for Christmas. I don’t want to get him some cheap plastic toy that he’s going to go and break in five minutes. By crikey I don’t know! I hate Christmas. It’s just a huge big over-commercialised phoney holiday which I always have to spend with Ma in the retierment home.        (I swear I only do it for the presents).
Here’s a picture sent in by some little siht cheeky kid who likes Christmas way too much:














Ugh.
