christmas SUXXX!

[feuergnom 29]

to be honest - i will be very happy when it's finally over.
seems like this whole mess is based on one thing: shopping ad nauseatum. stores starting to sell christmas-stuff in october and start to play christmas tunes as early as the beginning of november. everybody running around like crazy shopping for gifts nobody needs. damn advertisements filling my postbox to the brim....



and if you have no intention in participating in this madness you are a spoil-sport

I have this theory that if all the malls in America collapsed the day after Thanksgiving, we wouldn't really loose anybody we need.

I don't have an M.D. or a law degree. I have bachelor's in kicking ass and taking names.

I don't know why people let the shopping BS get to them.

Christmas isn't about gifts anyway.
If other people wanna involve themselves in a materialistic, commercial frenzy, let them. It's their business, no one is forcing you to participate.

Christmas doesn't suck, it is all the BS attached to it that sucks. Just forget about them & do Christmas your own way.

well - you just can't escape. when i was a kid i used to wonder how other people, that were not into this kind of thing (being christian and all the stuff) were to spend this day. the older i got the moe i thought - gee wouldn't this be bliss

in here you have posts asking how much you spend on presents or what you will buy your loved ones

i think christmas is a seasonal virus like flue or the sniffles, you have to sit it out

When there's a five week period where you can't go to any retail store without fighting an insane crowd or drive past any retail district without fighting insane traffic, it's hard to ignore.

Yes you can (yes you can, yes you cancan )

I stopped making Christmas presents about 10 years ago. I wrote letters & explained in countless talks why giving in to that christmas-stuff is against my personal beliefs, why I don't care for the whole shit and that anyone who wants to be a real friend better does not bother me with all those christmas troubles.

In the beginning, this created quite a fuss. Later, it was largely accepted. Today, I'm (thankfully) out of it all. In business or wherever I do not want to get too personal I answer with a new year gift, hoping that makes them think about the whole madness. (sometimes it does, & sometimes it does not).

Anyway, I made it. I am out of Xmas madness. & grateful! ;)
