Traditions

[AngelPixieNinja]

I haven't even been in the same country as my family for the past three years straight during December.  Not exactly any traditions to share.  But I can share that my family does have a tradition of naming the first male child born into the family Charles, which is how I wound up with the same name as my great-great-grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather and uncle.  Wish it didn't skip my Dad, being Charles the Vth would have been cool.

That's pretty cool but at the same time how do you tell different Charles' apart when you're calling for them?

Charles, Charlie, Chuck, Chad, Chas, Emory (the shared middle name), Em.  Got a few ways.

Edit:  I might add that I never met my great great grandfather(I mean, he wouls have been really old) or my grandfather, as he was a coal miner and got crushed on an accident on the job.  So there's only ever been a max of three of us around at once.  Now two, since my great-grandfather passed away (he was a tobacco farmer, lived to 101.  I'd say he had a good life, besides losing his son (my grandpa) kinda young).

I'm sorry about your grandfather, that must have been rough for your great-grandfather and your dad but it's still a great legacy to have. And dang, you're great-grandfather lived a long life and I hope a good one.

Not really a tradition of my family, but I've always completed a game on Christmas Day since 2012.

This year I'll probably try and break the record of 2 games finished on Christmas, up to 4, by finishing The Witcher, Stalker: Call of Pripyat, Pokemon and Shenmue 2. They're all pretty close to the end, probably need about 10 hours combined to get to the end, and I can push them to the end the few days beforehand when I do nothing.

I wish you luck! Let me know how you do
