I can't stand Christmas.  Its not just a dislike for yours truly, its rather a big hatred. Why;

Top Ten Things I Hate About Christmas
1.) Radio stations that feel a need to play 24 hours of Christmas music starting two weeks before Thanksgiving.  Domenic The Donkey should pet put down by the way.
2.) People who stare at me in aghast when I tell them I don't like the holiday.
3.) The Hanukah song. Its not really that funny and neither is the Turkey Song after 100 listens. 
4.) Its a bit of a money pit.
5.) The overabundance of decorations people throw up on their lawn. 
6.) The fact I can't get a good parking place when I'm running into Wal-mart for something like paper towels. 
7.) Contrary to Christmas specials and songs snow is not magical, its a driving hazard. 
8.) Receiving Christmas cards from people who I either;
A.) Haven't talked to in years or B.) Think I'll know their kids on photo gift cards.
9.) Arguments on whether to say "Happy Holidays" or "Merry Christmas". 
and most of all...
10.) As Blink 182 said once, being nice to the people you can't stand all year.

If you're a humbug like I am, feel free to join in.

I love Christmas almost as much now as I do as a littleun. For me, the excitement is in finding gifts for others and the joy it brings on Christmas for many to unwrap them. Also there's usually a terrific dinner, family and a beautiful snowy outdoors. Of course I love Halloween a great deal too believe it or not. It really is possible to like both.

Seee my post in...I Love Christmas...."!.Jesus is Just alright with me"...if they had a holiday celebating Budda...I would celebrate him too.. all good people...!  :cheers:

Uh yeah, thats what I ask myself when local stations play as part of their "Xmas mix".  They simply kill it on Boston stations in December.  By the way, I dig the name change Sioux-Zun. :wink:



Didn't you read reason #2!!!  :teddyr:

I loved it as a kid, then grew to kinda hate it (all the shopping, trying to figure out something that people would like to get as a gift) and now I'm coming back full circle to liking it again.  I just put no expectation on things anymore.


as he stares in aghast at Darkside  :buggedout:

Maybe the reason you like both Christmas and Halloween is that they're both white (Jase, you are in Newfoundland or some other snowy part of Canada, no?)   :teddyr:

I've found the holiday enjoyable the more one strips away the trappings, which by young adulthood feel like obligations.  Now, I spend time with people I enjoy, only buy for people I love (and all year long, so by Christmas, I am practically Santa Claus...) and expect nothing...

... and I agree with The DARKSIDER, snow is a driving hazard, at best it can be damned beautiful, but having lived my whole life in New Jersey (hardly CANADA) but snowy nonetheless, I have to say I loathe the stuff, and like it only on picture postcards!  Give me palmtrees swaying and colored lights on a sailboat mast.
