I know I know. Bah humbug. I'm Scrooge. But let's face it, there are some of us where, frankly, Christmas and everything that surrounds it makes us sick. There are some things about it I like. I like some of the movies. I like the food. Some of the light displays are interesting. But the music makes me wants to barf. And people running around like maniacs saying "Christmas is coming!" makes me wants to slap them in the head. Oooooo yes because it never comes the same time every year does it now?
Anywho....This is just a light hearted tongue in cheek thread to get all of the humbug out of you! Post your favorite anti-xmas photos, memes, videos, sayings, statements, quotes put it all right here!
I absolutely love Christmas and we look forward to it all year. Doesn't matter to me if I'm single or not, I still love it, but then I do have kids and a big family. I understand it can be tough for people who don't have the family aspect.
Christmas is d-day for me, usually I like it, whether in a relationship or not. I'll be spending it at my friend's house, she has two young girls and apparently is all decked out... So if all goes well I'll be leaving this thread, otherwise I'll be crying into my babycham
My boss told us we had to take our advent calendars down today as we are having a visit from the new overlord this week at some point. Wanted to point out that three chocolate-filled cardboard boxes affixed to the wall of a broom cupboard probably wouldn't be the most pressing thing on his mind, what with the whole re-structuring and all, but that would've gone down like a cup of sick, and I'm already living dangerously lol
We three office-dwellers are pretty stubborn, so we've just covered them up with motivational posters - you know the type -
We can still get to the chocs, which is the main thing
Don't talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that's ever true
Now I'm married and a Dad I quite like Christmas, I'm now all grown up and sensible. Best thing is - Kate spots a large payment on my credit card or bank statement and I can just say "Christmas" while carefully pushing the £800 audio player deeper into my pocket. I do still hate all the fake jovial moods though, people you don't talk to all year are now suddenly mates just because it's June ...... oh wait, Christmas has nothing to do with the death of a fictional character after all, so we have it in December. I don't eat chocolate - wren can have any you lot were planning to send me, Kate already has cupboards full thanks to Swiss and Greek contributions.

Before Kate lost the plot and said yes I had no family, so Christmas was just a day of mourning for me, now I have lots of family!
