I hate Christmas. Oh, what is that i hear? Is it the sound of commericalism screaming in protest? I believe it is. I hate Christmas. Christmas is about buying expensive shit we don't need... Contrary to what advertisements tell us. I hate Christmas. Yes, it IS hard to believe we don't need all that shit. We don't. BUT, according to those advertisements we are incomplete and unfullfilled without them. I hate Christmas. Christmas used to be about Jesus and whatever. I actually don't know what Christmas is really about. All I know is that is the one day a year people actually go to Church. I hate Christmas. I hate Christmas... I really do. Oh shit, the Politically Correct Police are here! Oh well, I didn't really need to have to ability to think for my self. TV will fix that. |

I hate christmas too, reciprocity in general is no longer needed in modern times. It's an annoying relic from the past when it served to make and keep social ties. Damn those are great lyrics baron, if you ever put it to a song, I'd consider it fit to be on www.mp3.com/stations/blueberrymuffins for sure! |

I don´t exactly really know what nowadays christmas is about. When I was a kid it was allright. I felt that way in the past but that was wrong. Then you grow up and sooner or later you realize that christmas never was right. The so called time of love and harmony....bla...bla...bla........................ So take a look around what we got. Stress - Hate - and............................... I guess you all out there know what the world is all about. There was the time where I suddenly felt uncomfortable about that period. I don´t know why. I hated it every year again. My parents where so stressed and they where different according to the rest of the year. We had a lot agreements because of that self-inflicted stress you produce by yourself also even before you get your gifts handed. Anyhow we celebrated but I hated it. Nowadays is my dad gone with the winds and I can´t celebrate anymore anything. Everything is splitted. Maybe it´s better that way. |

It's all a bit of a shame that you lot have bought into the comercialisation of Christmas. I get more pressies on my birthday. Christmas is a time where my family and I celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and all have fantastic and memerable time, see relatives we havent seen in a while, get really drunk and really stuffed, and usually, alot of attentiuon from my girlfriend. Surely its it's not Christmas, the time it represents, is the thing you hate but something else that doesnt nessessarily stand true for many many other people? |

Music is like Santa Claus. The original meaning behind it all is long lost and perverted now. You can find it in the mall with booze on its breath and a fake beard where you can even see the plastic straps. Santa's all over the t.v. selling crap and looking tough. We know that can't be the real Santa. The real Santa is the one in the old book we had read to us when we were babies. That's the Santa we send our wish lists to.......THE BARON HAS SPOKEN!!!!! P.S. SORRY i HAD TO POST THAT AGAIN !!! |

I know what you mean Baron, but it's not long lost in our house. I'm sure people felt that the meaning of Christmas was long lost in other periods of history. Only you can control how you celebrate Christmas. After all, It is only celebrating so you can do that as you see fit. If comercialism wasnt there, how would you celebrate? There wouldnt be loads and loads of food out on the table for one. you're the consumer, you chose to buy. unless your complaining about Christmas coz you cant afford presents. But even then, good people will understand. |

I think it's okay, as long as *you* celebrate it the right way. I'd like to go back to the victorian idea of xmas day being when you go to church, Have the meal with your family, etc then boxing day being when you give/receive presents. |

Christmas is a social class thing. If you live a priledged lifestyle you like it, it you are middle/lower class you don't like it. If you actually experience the reality of "real" living and not some country club experience, you know that most parents divorce and it's not some wholesome get together under the tree with you girlfriend feeding you bon bons under the 20 foot tree. It's about dealing with people you don't like and only see twice a year with no nice presents to gloss over the reality of things. |
