It's kind of nice when you have kids, watching them trim the tree and opening gifts and such. But when single, it was no big deal. I actually worked Christmas 10 years straight as my job gave a big bonus for covering those days. Easy money, and passed the time quickly.Hah. Christmas decorations start appearing very early here too. After a couple of months I'm like just get it over with.
The color schemes, the artwork (xmas cards) and those awful christmas trees. Terrible for the eye, I find it nauseating.
Then there's the overeating and drunk family members arguing. That's all there is to Christmas parties right?
I don't know guys but christmas needs to die cause it's terrible. I'd be happy to light a tree on fire during wintertime, but it's not even that cold in Western Europe, it's just raining outside. I can't believe this is supposed to be cozy.
Oh and these super crappy Christmas classic movies really need to stop.
Also I'm not buying ANYONE gifts.
yes,totally a kids thing,have a 5 year old nephew......I don't think I could ever reach those levels of excitement anymore.It's for kids or at least it should be for kids.
For adults it's generally forced fun and the painfully forced fun aspect seems to increase every year.
I haven't been interested since I was about 16. Now it's just a period of eating and drinking more than usual.
I wouldn't say I hate it, but at the same time I don't get any enjoyment out of seeing family members I haven't seen for the rest of the year either.
Thankfully this year I should only be seeing my parents. So I can go over there, eat and drink like a maniac, and then get home and do whatever I want to do.
I confess
Sure, I have good memories of christmas from when I was a kid. Went to Catholic school, I enjoyed most religious events. I also liked decorating xmas trees...until...It's kind of nice when you have kids, watching them trim the tree and opening gifts and such. But when single, it was no big deal.

Merry Christmas bud. Enjoy the spirit of this time of year.The color schemes, the artwork (xmas cards) and those awful christmas trees. Terrible for the eye, I find it nauseating.

Merry Christmas to you too Mike, you'll be in my thoughts during my dinner toast.It's depressing as fuck for me. I make sure to stock up on alcohol so I can grit my way through it. Christmas music can go die in a fire too.
no homersI see i ventured into the bitter and sad gentleman club
sorry for interrupting, fellas.
Move to Saudi Arabia.
Problem solved
Sandy Claus?
Sorry to hear that, TS. Be sure not to come to ever come to the Philippines for Christmas....it lasts 4.5 months here! In all honestly, it really is a commercial holiday, and with not even being very religious, I prefer Thanksgiving much more.
<{cruzshake}>I might be grumpy and I might have farming tendencies, but I'm still right about Christmas. It's the emptiest holiday out there.
