They’re decorating office doors here today. I already got harassed about it. I drew a star on a piece of paper and taped it to my door. I got the “Oh andros, you’re so wacky!” but at least they stopped bugging me for the moment.
yay I did this last year for the board I have a few to add :
fuck the buying of 1-2 k in "must have " toys that will get played with maybe once a month then shoved in a room that could fill 2 or 3 empty toys r us stores until next October and then shoved in a bin in a closet until its remembered they have it once a year
and fuck the idea that if said kids don’t get it all they’ll die of shame and disappointment and their world will end
fuck the better homes and gardens 1960s style of cramming so many decorations in every room of a house that it could fill 3 or 4 shelves of a Walmart ………
and fuck me for helping to enable all of this bs this
I feel you, man. I am slowly becoming accustomed to the tinkly sounds of xmas tunes. About the time i think its great, it’ll be over. Alas, another year over. Oh well, we’ll live. Maybe.
Hating Christmas doesn’t make one bitter or an asshole. The whole fucking thing is stupid. Especially since about 1880. (date arbitrarily chosen, so don’t ask me what happened in 1880)
I have finally convinced my wife to do Christmas right this year. No tree, no lights, no special meal, and no presents. She agreed to a Chinese Restaurant for 12/25 dinner and a completely stress free “holiday season.”
I must also admit to a certain euphoria when I pass the Christmas tree lot or see the crowds around the local mall.
