Christmas went from fun as a child, to just one of those family gatherings + presents as I grew older. Not that I hate gifts
I find it funny a few years ago with padoru started showing up,lots of people said it was a fad and would be gone by the next year. Here we are two or three years later and the little demon chibi is back tormenting eyes and ears of unsuspecting(or not so unsuspecting) interweebs... i honestly think lots of people took it as a challange just so they could keep the little overly friendly, homicidal chibi around xD
