fuck christmas!

so, it's that time of year again, and i guess i will start off the annual, traditional, christmas 'bitch and moan' thread.

i'll start off by bitching about, christmas music over the muzak system at the supermarket.
THAT FUCKING SHIT MAKES ME WANT TO PULL MY HAIR OUT!

thank god! i lost almost all the hair on top my head about 30 years ago... i can save myself all that bloody pain of pulling my hair out by the roots!
:2thumbsup:

 

I agree.. fuck christmas. It has nothing to do with the supposed birth of Jesus. It is a hi-jacked holiday to manipulate pagans of yesteryear. I also agree.. fuck christmas music too. It's tired, nobody has written a good christmas song in 50 years, and even the old ones suck. Fuck Frank Sinatra crooning frosty the snowman. Fuck everyone assuming I'm a christian, especially this time of year. I also can't stand people I know claiming to be atheist and still loving christmas.. it's a cop out to get stuff out of your family. I live with three atheists who want to put up a christmas tree. shoot me.

 

I love the atmosphere of Christmas. Don't see how being a little jollier and more merry for about a day or a month bothers people so bad.

Also; can we please recognize a distinction between the holy Christmas and the Santa Claus Coke commercial Christmas?

 

It's just annoying how the family doesn't want to keep in contact with each other but then it's Christmas and everyone's like oh hey what's been up?
Go away. -.-
I have better things to do.

 

I thought that was thankgiving.. :devil:

 

I don't like either version of christmas. those "jolly for a month people" never cross my path. I just get the cranky, stressed ones. the only redeeming thing to christmas is the grinch. no matter how many times I see that, I still root for the grinch. If only the whos hadn't brainwashed him. I hate when people are like "its about family". itsmore like family pretends to care whats going on in your life for a week then thats it until next year.

 

Every year in December I get to evaluate my friendships by how cheap I am or they are

this is what the end of Oct to Jan 1st feels like..

 

Christmas is a over commerialised holiday that is exploited to the fullest by every chain store in the country.

What pisses me off it that they start setting up christmas decorations at the beginning of october so instead of being a couple of days off annonyance it becomes a couple of months especially seeing as i dont celebrate christmas - but i will take the public holiday thank you very much

And dont get me started on the frikken music , makes you want shove a jingle bell up someones ***

 

I have to qualify my comments by stating that I generally loathe society, hate shopping, do not care to receive gifts, am not a Christian and am not very close to my relatives.

Christmas is wonderful.

First and foremost Christianity appropriated long standing Winter Solstice festivals to co-opt Pagans in an attempt to prosletyze them. The birth of Jesus is just an excuse for the party.

the amount of crass commercialism you are subject to is largely under your control (unless you are unfortunate enough to work in Retail).

The amount of money you spend on buying gifts and the number of people you buy for is under your control.

Same goes for lame Christmas music. Turn the channel.

Family is family. If you are an adult you can pick your own terms to deal with them.

Bottom line: IF you are forced to work retail I can see some of your hatred of Christmas. If not just enjoy the season.

oh, and alcohol helps...

 

I dislike the while commercial aspect of Christmas, but in general its my favourite time of the year. It's one of the only times our whole family is together, and the traditional meaning of Christmas is apparent, despite everything else.

The atmosphere is great. I love winter, the music and so on. If you don't like it, you don't need to go in for it.

What Christmas has become I am not a fan of, but the meaning behind it, and which often needs to be uncovered these days, I am.

 

This should raise your spirits

I tried fucking Christmas many times, but Christmas pussy be dried up.

 

I just realized too, after comments about retail store Xmas jingles, that I havent been in a retail store at all this year, not once. Everything has been brought online, and I think that will go for Chrissie shopping.

Occupy that K-Mart!

 

....and bahhh humbug to you too.

 

i like christmas music... i mean they only play it once a year

and anyways

i hear lady gaga on the radio every fuckin' day :frown:

 

Would you hate Christmas if you had were loaded with money? Is it the comercialism of it? Some of you say that you don't like your family and friends because that is the only time you see them, have you made an attempt yourself to go see them?

I don't have a lot of money. I don't get to see my family that often, but when we get together it is for good food-good times-good coversations. I like Chrismas! My Grandfather was born on the 25th so maybe that is a nother reason I find it special.

 

I thought this thread was going to be about porn with santa's hot and naughty helpers

 

Christmas is really kicking my ass this year. I just know too damn many people. :frown:

We should all go back to getting a piece of chocolate, an orange, and a small, hand-carved wooden toy. Then we could all save our money up for something worthwhile. None of this "if you love me, you'll buy me something really expensive and shiny" bullshit...

I'm going to go gaze at the Christmas tree with a mug of hot chocolate and try to forget how much I've spent the past three days. (Decorating the tree with the new family was nice last night, though, I have to admit. )

My fiance and I both work in grocery stores. It's incessant, all day long. 8 hours of the same four songs done by different "artists." One of my customers told me I should call OSHA and report my employer for abuse, lol. It's been going on since two days BEFORE Thanksgiving. I actually caught myself singing The Carpenters' "Merry Christmas, Darling" and almost killed myself as I realized that the words "the logs on the fire fill me with desire" had just come out of my mouth. :ack2:

 

Why do you buy for so many people?
