my current theory is that the pagan holidays are a strategy against winter depression. funny when that travels to the southern hemisphere-- snow in beach season, most hilarious.

Fine, I have no problem with that. If we can just get the people who don't give a fuck about the Christian Christmas to take down the garish Christmas trees and flashing lights that they put up three weeks ago, and to quit the "you must buy an expensive present" pressure, we can all be happy.

It's the commercialisation of Christmas that regularly makes it a shit-fest.

Amen.

And it's Christmas that makes working in retail so difficult. Knowing you're going to be selling lots of tat to people who are then going to give them to other people who would much rather have something else.

But again, that's not about Christmas itself, but is a wider issue. You just have to look at debt in the UK to see that people overspend ALL year.

Take from Christmas what you like and leave the rest.

My Main Problems with Xmas:

The "season of good will to all men" Bullshit
I go out of my way to be nice and help people all year, i dont need a fucking holiday or any fancy, flashy fairy lights for that

Organized/pre-mediatated Fun - most of the fun i've had in my life has been almost completely random and unplanned. The general regimented order of how you are expected enjoy xmas really pisses me off, like how you take decorations down in January. As if January/Feb/March aren't as good a time as any to celebrate all life has to offer with fairy lights and tinsel.

People buying presents because "they have to"

The build up!!! how I have to endure this nightmare from as early as July!!!

I hear you! Those songs are awful, they sound like they were all written by Stock, Aikin and Waterman! I hate how they always get stuck in your fucking head, even though you dispise them.....

I was in a shop last year and this singing, animated snowman kept going off every time someone walked past so I went over and unplugged the fucker!
Oh how the children cried muhahahah!

i consider the song "the twelve days of christmas" an incitement to murder

if i ever go postal, that will be the cornerstone of my insanity defense

let's not forget this crap either-- worst song ever:

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time
it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse
pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time
it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse
pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell rock

That's very annoying indeed. I can't imagine that family getting any shut eye throughout the month of December. I'd go nuts with all the flickering lights, not to mention the electrical bill.

I'm 35, and subsequently I'm sufficiently out-of-touch with you crazy kids that I need to ask if 'blows' is a good or bad thing.

Thank you. I thought 'blows' sounded like a negative comment, but so does something being 'the shit', so I thought it better to seek confirmation.

Man, you are all a miserable bunch arent you.

I hate the songs too, and the overly commercial (and Christian) overtones. But, nevertheless, I get caught up in the festive feeling, which is very comforting to me.
