Chis, look at your sig, and then ask me. Lol, boxing day is when you get people who have helped you in the year something. It is recognised as a holiday in nearly all English speaking countries, here is a little thing from a canadian website I found:

Boxing Day

The day after Christmas, the Feast of St. Stephen, the first Christian martyr, is better known as Boxing Day. The term may come from the opening of church poor boxes that day; maybe from the earthenware boxes with which boy apprentices collected money at the doors of their masters' clients.

Nowadays, we often see, in certain families, gifts (boxes) given to those who provide services throughout the year.

"Boxing Day" is listed in the Canada Labour Code as a holiday.

Loads of shops opened today and there was big sales everywhere

Thats what happened THIS boxing day

Okay, but I wished you a merry boxing day so... Yeah. Now you know what it is, and next time, don't ask, google it!

You're from Atlanta, buddy, so why do you celebrate Canadian or English holidays? It's just strange

I don't know anyone in America who celebrates Boxing Day. Yesterday was Christmas, so I think that's enough for now...

no one celebrates boxing day here

its not a celebrating day

But its boxing day none the less O-o

I would rather actually box than give people stuff :s this seems familiar to me has there ever been another thread like this?

Not that I know of... Alos, you could get somthing from some one you helped out...

All shops in Australia bar the ones in Victoria were closed on boxing day. Big stocktake sales in Melbourne and stuff, people got trampled. >.<

DID THEY TRY TO BOX cause that would pwn... like the whole mall in one huge fight... guess that would be a riot though

No boxing on boxing day dammit!!!!!

Come on wouldnt that be sweet though

Uh, no it wouldn't. It'd actually be pretty strange to have someone come in your house and start boxing with you. There'd be plenty of hospitalities...

lol I would love that! Well I did just watch Fight Club for like the 5th time... so maybe that wore off on me... I love when he beats the hell outta that blond guy its amazing

people just realized that everyone will have to much of a hangover after xmas to go to work so they made another holiday

Yeah, LiMeY seems to be the only one to understand it... Even chis did not know what it was.

Next on the calendar...

Jan 1st - New Years Day

Jan 2nd - National Hangover Day (:lol:)

same here, i went to the album store yesterday and the album i wanted was Sold out

I don't think that's the same thing, StormCrow. The effects of Boxing Day and the failure of the store to restock your album is only loosely tied. lol

Seems liek it would be more like Christmas that did that

no they actually told me it was sold out they said i missed the last copy by 5 minutes

Because of the sale!!! And you would have gotten away with it, if it weren't for those meddling kids!

I'm spending new years on the internet

I don't want to goto the pub with my parents

I don't like pubs one bit
