Once that happens, yeah fuck it, down with mandatory cheerfulness and timed generosity. Ive been trying to get people to stop give me gifts since i was like 13, I wish you could opt out of this shit. Anything I need or want is either too expensive or not the kind of thing you can ask for as a gift, and anything I end up getting is shit I dont need or want. I try to only get people books or tickets to something these days. Nothing physical or materialistic unless i think it will genuinely improve their life in some way.
