Rant GRRR xmas wrapping presents hell...

I just like to say i hate wrapping xmas presents my wrapping skill's are next to none how bad is your skill's ?

 

i wrap em in gaffa tape

done.

 

I love it, just think logically about how the paper will behave and you will be fine.

 

Strangely, wrapping presents is one of the very few things I like about christmas...

Sometimes i make the presents oddly shaped so that the contents isn't obvious.

 

Likewise but with brown parcel tape, much harder to find an edge

 

1) go to youtube
2) type 'how to wrap presents' & hit enter.
3) thank me later.

 

I don't even try. Plus my gifts are usually way too big for wrapping .

 

My "Skill's" "is" not nearly as bad as this sentence

I'd just like to say I hate wrapping Christmas presents. My wrapping skills are nearly non existent. How good or bad are you at wrapping presents?

Copy & paste please.

 

Definitely practice throughout the year by doing the following:

-whenever you sell anything second hand on t'Internet, wrap the box up in old wallpaper, or brown parcel paper, or whatever you have to hand
-do this enough times to become proficient at it throughout the year
-speed through present wrapping at Christmas, and wow everyone with your amazing skills

This post is serious. It's how I learnt to wrap parcels/presents. It also provides a handy excuse for upgrading every 5 minutes.

 

Hay could not be bothered to type it out correctly. But thank's any way...

 

Gift box + tape = done

 

Oh dear, wait for his reply to that! Doesn't take any extra effort to spell correctly.

 

I just give wrapping paper as the present, then it does not need wrapping.

 

Gift bags, problem solved Cobblers to wrapping paper.

 

Wrapping presents is both simple and fun, and after years of practice I have no problems in that area.

 

Make sure it's in a box then wrapping is easy.

 

i started wrapping mine in august/september when my wife got made reundant - around the same time i got my HAF X build - i just used the bags and put celotape over the top, my wife came back and said it just wouldnt do so she undid everything and rewrapped them in paper the same night

 

I didn't ask you to spell anything correctly, I commented on the fact that you didn't and then wrote the sentence properly for you. Copy the sentence from my post and paste it into your own in the "edit post" mode please. It's ridiculous having a thread started with such an unreadable sentence on bit-tech. I'd half expect it on some of the other forums I frequent, where the guys type out sentences phonetically, how they actually speak in a Cockney or Scottish accent, but I'm not willing to let this place slide down to their level as well.

You're right about that

 

ffs unicorn stop correcting peoples sentences, I enjoy trying to translate them into readable english.

 

I don't, though - and I know lots of other people don't, which is why I will continue to correct people and hopefully educate them on how to write English properly
