On a lighter note, I was arguing with a friend of mine about the difference between receiving and getting presents. I stated there was no difference. He goes on to say when you receive a present, you appreciate it, when you get one, you don't. I just don't get it, but if anyone can please give some insight to this, that would be appreciated.
I'd say it's the same.
I'm gonna try to celebrate Saturnalia this year, and set free all the slaves I see.

I think receiving sounds more personal. The really appreciate the present and thank the person giving it to you, reminding yourself that they went to the effort. "Get" sounds a little more like you're just opening presents to see what you have, not really looking at the other side of things.
In terms of language though, there's no difference.
I for one am looking forward to some Devils On Horseback.
In my college dorm, we had an "xxx-mas" tree. apparently some kids uprooted a baby evergreen. we decorated with lights and things, but also pictures of genitalia. the highlight was the inflated condom at the top. _________________ My top songs of the 2010s

It's the 24th now over here. For the first time I haven't been just the least excited for christmas at all. TV do broadcast the Disney christmas show tomorrow afternoon though, I'll watch that and maybe it'll help
