Holiday Special: The Trad-Obligation Flowchart

12/20/2013

 
To everyone feeling overwhelmed by cookie making, card sending, secret-Santa-ing, and/or open house having. And to anyone feeling vaguely guilty about not feeling guilty about not doing things. I hath created a handy Holiday Tradobligation (Tradition + Obligation) Flowchart. The more you share, the better our world. You're welcome.

Optional Bonus Handy Note:

----------------------cut on dotted line------------------------------

Dear (circle one) friend / family member / colleague / other (please specify):

I am intentionally, but not maliciously, declining to participate in the following holiday tradobligation: ____________________________________________________
for reasons of my own sanity, and to make the world a less reciprocal-obligation-filled place. I invite you to join me in opting out of any and all tradobligations. Experience the freedom!

Sincerest regards,
