Skipping Christmas

Post » Sat May 12, 2012 3:53 am

I recognize that this holiday has religious roots, but if you can keep the overtly religious-y stuff out of this thread and just gripe about, or be happy about, a rather festive time of year, I'd be happy to let this one run on. Thanks.

Sounds like hes a dike.

Oh, he is. I think that's ultimately the reason I'm annoyed.

Still, having random members of the family trying to cause problems at Christmas is hardly unique, I suppose...

I thought that was the whole point? And something about turkey, though where baby Jesus got a turkey in the middle east 2000 years ago is anyone's guess... And don't say Turkey! :tongue:

Christmas is a perfect time for drugs, mythology, and getting pissy drunk.

Xmas is like dual wielding. If you don't like it, don't use it. Why all the whining? Every year people rage against this holiday like it's the reason for their dysfunctional family lifes.

You are right! The next time somebody (starting in November) comes round my house duel wielding xmas swords everyday, destroying my favourite songs by attaching products to them and closing my pub, I shall ignore it all. :tongue:

Blame capitalism, not xmas.

I don't know about the closing of pubs. In my country xmas is celebrated with special xmas-beers. No closed pubs here :biggrin:

No law against it here. The local pub owner just buggers off to see his family (I live in the countryside).
