My personal rating for today’s game is moderate, as I managed to achieve a perfect score. Reflecting on my childhood memories, I recall my mother’s quirky tradition of placing a piece of coal in our Christmas stocking as a humorous touch. It was her way of injecting a bit of humor into the festive season, amidst all the commercialism and sentimentality.
Another fond memory involves my grandfather’s habit of regifting presents back to me, creating amusing moments with repeated Old Spice gift sets. These quirky family traditions added charm and light-heartedness to our celebrations.
