I hate christmas

Well I think Christmas is "ok".

First off I am not christian but I still celebrate christmas because that is the way I was raised and it's just a nice holiday.

Pros:
.Buying things for those you love
.Bragging about your christmas tree
.Bragging about the stuff you got
.Seeing the look on the faces on the people you got presents for when they open them
.Decorating a christmas tree
.WINTER BREAK


Cons:
.No money to buy anything else besides christmas stuff
.Annoying music
.Annoying people
.Stupid fat man (Santa)
.The weather starts getting colder
.Trying to find a place to put left-over wrapping paper
.Trying to find tape
.Trying to find sciccors (sp?)
.Breaking christmas orniments

----So there are ups and downs but all together it's ok. :happysad:
 
hmm, well this is my first post on WTF... and I'm definitely agreeing with you with christmas songs; torture. Worst thing I've probably ever had to endure was either when i caught on fire, or when i had to listen to x-mas songs for 3 hours. Lol it's a close race. Presents are always good though ;)
 
Christmas is possibly the worst time of the year. Besides suicide rates skyrocketing throughtout this month, people have completely forgotten the meaning of Christmas, and are now just bombarded with propaganda. The only upside to Christmas is recieving and giving gifts, but that's because recieving things is just a nice feeling in general. If you were to ask people the meaning behind Christmas, guaranteed you'll get at least 50% of them not having one shit of a clue. Oh, and not to leave this out; it's also one of the few times your family will actually get together with a smile on their faces.
 
Recently my family had a Christmas party and I couldn't help but feel that the entire thing was horribly fake. I don't know why we can't just be honest with each other. I wish we lived in a world where if someone was having a bad day they could just say it and then everyone could just accept that and move on. If someone actually says they are having a bad day, it's this huge deal and everyone stops what they're doing to mourn their bad day.

Christmas just brings out the worst of this in people. Everyone is held up by the need to be happy for the holidays and be in a great mood all the time. Everyone needs to always be really excited for gift giving/getting even though this is not always the case. I wish we could be honest with one another. I feel like I barely know anyone because it's impossible in our society to ever be honest.

Sorry if this is a little stretched. I had to struggle to fit it in with this topic because although it started with a Christmas party, it is really just a rant about life.

Also sorry for not fitting in with the current threat discussion. I didn't read it before posting, needless to say.
 
I disagree. Everyone has seen the christmas specials, and I bet everyone is capable of giving that cheesy "christmas is not about presents, its about family and blahahblah birth or christ, etc" bullshit response.

Now, wether or not they actually believe that and they're not just saying it to not be an asshole is another question.



These are some of the cons of christmas that don't get as much attention as the other cons but they're just as conful (I know, not a word, stfu).
 
Did you ever have a Christmas where you had to work a double shift because no one else showed up? Maybe one year you were far from family/friends and the loneliness is made worse by the smiling happy people who seem not to have a care in the world. They have the nice car, clothing, just perfect fucking lives and yet they're looking at you funny because you're not working fast enough for them. They have to wait in line, oh, the horror. You get the idea, but then, out of nowhere, someone who cares about you stops by to give you an unexpected gift and wish you a happier time. The gift, one time, was a tiny little book called The Art of Peace, a simple and thoughtful gift. Sure, the world is full of plastic assholes, but at least there are a few real friends. They are the ones who make Christmas feel like a holiday.
 
christmas is such a waste-of-everything-holiday. all people do is waste time, money, happiness, trees, electrcity and i'm sure something else too. its a ridiculously greedy holiday. idk about everyone else but i'm sick of wasting all my everything away on this ONE holiday. and in the end its a dissapointment cuz all that ends up happening is a whole month or two of hype and then BAM its gone,
