I usually crumple it up and then give it to my siblings and/or cats to play with. By the time they're done with it, it's beyond repair, and we recycle it. Occasionally I give my self the pleasure of wrapping it around their heads.
Nothing to see here, puny mortals. Move along.

I do neither of them. I try my best to keep them, but I never reuse them.

How does one even go about saving the paper? O.o I'm always so excited to open my present that the wrapping paper, no matter how shiny or decorative, ends up on the floor, lost and forgotten. xD

I'm always careful in unwrapping because it seems unfair to force people to watch me destroy their hours of painstaking work in seconds. If it's pretty, I usually keep it to decorate my room with because I am a pretty addict. I'm a bit of a hoarder, so I don't like to throw it away, but I never end up reusing it. It just sort of mysteriously disappears after a while.

Hmm.... 15 people save the wrapping paper... Strange. I wonder what it's like with little kids XD

By saving the best ones, I mean saving the ones I haven't completely trashed in the unwrapping process! I mean, you're gonna tear some! So why not tear it all!
We are who we are, and if someone has a problem with that; that's their problem not ours.

The bigger the issue, the smaller you write. Remember that. You don’t write about the horrors of war. No. You write about a kid’s burnt socks lying on the road. You pick the smallest manageable part of the big thing, and you work off the resonance.
