Bah, Humbug! ( or things you don't like about Christmas )

    I thought it might be a good idea to get people talking about what they don't like about Christmas. Let out your inner Scrooge!

    For me, while I love the build up, I don't like Christmas Day itself! I'm just not the type of person who can stand family. ( Though that attitude will probably change when I have my own ) It also feels like an endurance test than anything else! I don't get that bored on any other day of the year, even on Good Friday!

    The so called ' Christmas Creep ' is another big one, I saw them putting up Christmas Decorations in Merchants Quay in Cork at the start of November! Don't get me started on Christmas shops popping up in September!

    People who see Christmas as a competition on who got the best present. I can understand that some what with kids but adults should really know better! Stop trying to outclass one another! I thought its the thought that counts? Is it any wonder why some people are so much up in debt? :rolleyes:

    And what about Christmas TV? God, welcome to an endless world of repeats! I swear one Christmas season I counted over a dozen old Westerns on TV on over Christmas, ridiculous!

    Bah, Humbug!
