Itâs the Christmas of 2020, and Iâm stuck secluded at home with you-know-what. Everyone in my family lives in another state, so I usually fly out there for Christmas. Not this year. So, there I am, sick and miserable, when I hear the doorbell. Confused and more irritated than I already was, I walk over to the window and open it, planning to tell the person that coming here really isnât a good idea.
The person in question turns out to be my best friend, who tells me to come to the door and then runs back to a group of some of our other friends. Curious now, I do as Iâm told. As soon as I open the door, my friends, who are a safe distance away, start dancing and singing!
Friends: âWe wish you a merry Christmas; we wish you a merry Christmas; we wish you a merry Christmas; and a healthy New Year!
âOh, please stay six feet away; oh, please stay six feet away; oh, please stay six feet away; youâre spreading it through the air!
âWe wonât stay if you come outside; we wonât stay if you come outside; we wonât stay if you come outside; so, keep your a** right there!
âWe wish you a merry Christmas; we wish you a merry Christmas; we wish you a merry Christmas; and a healthy New Yeeeeeeaaarrr!â
By the end of it, I was alternating between laughing and coughing but felt immensely better emotionally. I also finally spotted the gift boxes at my feet, each of which had a bag of cough drops taped to it. My friends insisted on watching me open my presents right there and requested IOUs for their own gifts.
When we just started dating, my husband told me how he met his best friend.
He and his best friend were in the same class, but they were far from friends. Not only that, but [Friend] was the class bully and [Husband] was the meek victim.
[Husband] does not remember everything anymore, but he said that [Friend] was once again annoying him by poking his back. He had done this for months, so something finally snapped in [Husband]. He got up, turned around, grabbed [Friend], and tossed him over two rows of tables. He then jumped after [Friend] and started punching him. According to [Husband], adrenaline and rage combined are one h*** of a drug.
The teachers were aware of the bully situation, but since [Friend] made sure no one was looking, there was no proof of it. So, to the outside, it looked as if [Husband] had gone mad for no reason!
The teacher stormed at the two, pulled them apart, and yelled:
Teacher: âEnough! And now you two are friends!â
[Husband] calmed down and [Friend] nodded. [Friend] never bullied anyone again, and they indeed became friends. [Friend] eventually became my husbandâs best man at our wedding. [Friend] told me he needed someone to âpunch some sense into himâ and was thankful [Husband] was the one to do it.
