What things do you hate about Christmas?

[pjbleek]

rigging up the lights

I really dislike that christmas song, the one by Slade I think it is. Talk about overplayed.


Generally I enjoy christmas, but this year we have no money so it's harder to get excited. I do hate trying to buy presents. My family and I just tell each other roughly what we'd like, but all the same I dislike it.

There is this one I hate by Wizard I think the name of the band is, also. Just awfully cheesy...how could anyone want it to be Christmas everyday?

The pressure it puts on a lot of parents to spend money they don't have to buy their kids stuff they don't need or else seem like the biggest pieces of shit in the world in their kid's eyes when their friends got all the toys they wanted and they didn't.

Ya, that's sad...

The commercial aspect of Christmas does my head in. Why do I have to send Xmas cards just cos someone sent me one? I don't send Xmas cards, if I did, you'd get one. The way Xmas songs are played in shops from about October. How I cant find a birthday card for friends or family with birthdays in Dec due to the Christmas card overload in any card shop. The rush to buy stuff. The way I get shoved from pillar to post when i try and do some shopping. The sales. Holy shit they do my nut in. The pressure to spend time with family when I have to work over Christmas. Other than all that, I mostly like Christmas.

Nothing... that I don't hate all year around. I love Christmas. People are morons no matter what time of year it is so I don't discriminate.

I hate the fact that even before Turkey Day is over, we're bombarded with ads that say to buy this, this, and this for Christmas.

And what's up with these people who have to be among the first to shop at a store the morning after Thanksgiving? They think that's exciting?!

Gee, they'll be able to have on their obituary that they were one of the first to shop at Wal-Mart every year. Wow. That's a huge accomplishment.

To me it's pathetic!

I really cant think of but one thing and that is the money slump in Janurary

 

[teh_fuzz]

This, exactly.
...along with everyone's assumption I give two fucks about the holiday. My boyfriend says people think I'm a christian because I wear cardigans. If that's the case, I'm fucked. Will not relinquish them. D:

Anyway, I like winter, I like fireplaces, cookies, fa lalalalala shit. It's fun and festive.

My biggest annoyance is people bitching about how christ is being taken out of christmas. LISTEN. NO ONE can take anything out of your holiday but your holiday's followers. It's not my fault no one goes to church and the holiday is one giant shopping clusterfuck instead of a religious thing.

I'll kindly ask you not tie a giant jesus statue to the front of my town walmart, but otherwise your troubles are intragroupal I made that word up.

:shesaid

The money thing only gets me cos we get paid the week before Xmas, so sometimes that can be 3 weeks after last payday dependant on when Christmas lands, then its 5 -6 weeks til payday in January and that SUCKS.
