The most fucking miserable time of the year. fact. The stench of death is everywhere. Can't wait till it's over. |

Well, in my parts Xmas lasts for 3 days. |

Since when has turning children into little consumerist whores been a good thing? It's time to pop this Santa and Jesus bubble. |

this is very true. pop the bubble. but the child whoring business is not yet that visible in this part of Europe. |

It is odd, isn't it, Christmas. Like a melding of all manner of myth, tradition, religion, pagan festival... mix it all up and you get "Oh just go to the shops, buy dad socks, perfume for mum and a shit load of plastic rubbish for little Wanker" |

my fave thing about it is that on christmas day the streets are empty. i always cycle through the streets then and bask in the emptiness of the city. then its a fucking ant farm 24/7 especially with these sales and shit... i mean.. don;t epopel have enough stuff? |

I dunno, this year was the best Christmas ever for me. A 4 day piss-up spent making tracks about 8 hours a day and seeing mates and loved ones the rest of the time. I could live like this forever. |

is santa still as populat as he was like 5-10 years ago. ive got no idea, but i wonder if new generation parents still tell their kids santa is gonna be going down their chimney. youd think itd be smarter to cut the crap and just tell kids that its buy people things day, but i dunno? |

Yeah I love that too, people stay the fuck indoors for that small window of time. I had a big long music-filled winter walk on Christmas Eve, it was nice. But come Boxing Day, everybody's scrambling back to the malls and the snowbanks start getting dirty with exhaust. |

the whole commercial side to christmas is shite. mind you the religious bit is aswell. meh |

In what way does all of this actually affect you Bill? I mean, since when has turning children into little consumerist whores been an exclusive Christmas thing? You can actually make the Chritmas period, a normal couple of weeks if you wanted to. No-one's told you to do anything you don't want to do, or act any differently. |

the idea of being around the ones you love, sharing stories, spending time together, is nice...esp as you get older and cant see the folks too often... that aspect is worth a lot !!! not being too materialistic and agnostic that side is ok...do what you want...its fine by me ! |
||||||||

Agreed. Christmas isn't nearly as bad as some make it out to be, with regards to commercialism/materialism and whatnot. I suppose many of the people that only see it in that light are just not loved enough. Laugh out loud. |

haha - i think you create your own monsters - when i was a kid sure presents were great but as i aged my family swung towards the importance of time spent together, a good meal, good drinks, etc the people who run around crazy buying their kids useless shit have dug their own grave - i dont feel sorry for them one bit... |

I had a great Christmas... I got married in May and it was nice to go home and have a really good time with both families, (Gems parents live in the same town as mine). It's ace to see how much of a family member Gem really is to my brother and sister! Good stuff. |
