New Delhi: So you were really, really hoping to get that brand new smartphone or a tablet as a gift this festive season, but when you unwrapped that big box it turned out to be another customised mug with your picture clicked in an era bygone.
While your family member or friend is anxiously waiting for you to scream in amazement and thank them a ton, none of this is really coming out from the inside. That feeling, that sheer disappointment is completely understandable, and relatable.
It is difficult to hide being upset, but hey, it is festive season and one must be nice to others and acknowledge their effort of gifting you; yes, even if you did not get a gadget of your choice.
In a series of interesting commercials by a British electronics retail chain Currys PC World, actor Jeff Goldblum teaches people how to ‘spare the act’ this Christmas. Even if you don’t get the latest Microsoft Surface, Google Chromecast or the Apple iPhone you’ve been going gaga about as a gift, Goldblum tells you to just act it out. Instead of incomprehensible ‘umm,’ ‘nice,’ and phrases which do not truly show you are happy with the gift, you should give the reaction which you would have had it been exactly the gift you wanted.
Watch these ads and master the art of rehearsing your reactions.
