If you don`t like Christmas, then why not take up a few extra shifts at work and earn a few dollars extra.
I don`t mind Christmas, but it can become a bit much sometimes.
I`ve taken on a few extra shifts over the Christmas period.
My bank account wont look as raped as it normally does after Christmas.
Old Peppers will get tacky presents AND some extra cash win win. !
Cant all be bad, I got a free lunch today and my boss from my other Job gave me a bottle of Scotch win win! ____________________ I am the sum total of my own existence, what went before makes me who I am now! |

I quite like Christmas. Pretty Lights, food, pretty lights on trees, I like pretty lights
And food. Love Christmassy food, chrissy pud, chrissy cake, mince pies. Diabetes inducing heaven.
Fooking hate crowds, crowded shops, loadsa money spent on crap.
Bah humbug here, not even got a tree up (again*), but will pig out and send some xmas cards.
*this is the 2nd year in a row I've had to turn my living room into ferret hospital, joys of old age pet-sioners. No room for a tree, so no decs to take down after new year. |

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
Sorry for the shite Meg Ryan badly faking an orgasm impersonation...
But yes. I fucking hate it and have since I was a child. What a load of old shit. Everything about it makes me want to move to some appalling shithole like Kuwait. Yes, I will be stoned to death for having a pint of lager or saying hello to a passing woman who isn't a blood relation...but at least I won't have to suffer the abomination of fucking hell that is Christmas.
And a happy new year up your arse too!

It's the ultimate festival of tackiness, brought on by an annual bout of mass stupidity, pepeptuated, to the nth degree, by, grasping, businesses who are more than happy to take your money in return for shite that no one wants or needs!
Add to that the sanctimonious claptrap spouted by the religionists and all it amounts to is a, huge, mid winter scam, designed to relieve you of your money, inescapable, wall to wall, bullshit for two months!
According to some blurb, I overheard on the telly, my Xmas won't be complete without a new sat nav, FCUK RIGHT OFF!

You just have to distance yourself mentally from it. Possibly this is a skill that's easier to acquire in London, where you have to constantly tune out infuriating aspects of life all year round.
You can learn to tune out the irritating constant merry tunes unless you really *want* to hear them, i.e., going to a Carols concert, or that fun shouty New York Christmas song. Think of it the same way that you unlisten to your missus, except for key words like "credit card", "pregnancy test" or "dinged the car".
I'm probably lucky that I am at that "kids grown up, but no grandkids" stage, so there is no reason to make a fuss, or get stressed. I was in Asda today, picking up some meringues and assorted other goodies (eaten the meringues already, oh dear!) and there was a couple in there, my age, with a list, who were stressing themselves in every single aisle I strolled into.
Small luxury food shopping trip/s, a couple of decent bottles of something flavoursome (mango Sourz last year, considering chocolate tequila this year, but ended up making my own by inserting dried apricots into some Jamesons a week ago) - and stress-free relaxation in a gently twinkling environment
(although having said that I've not actually put up any lights yet this year, but then I only took down the ones from the-year-before-last about two months ago ...)
Some tasteful decorations and candles that DO NOT smell of cinnamon, snow, apples, or berries - you don't have to clean, dress or even cook anything complicated. You just have to rela-a-a-a-ax
Christmas, I can't fucking wait. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

If you don't like it then don't participate. We stopped buying presents and cards a few years ago now, it felt awkward at first but once you're used to it it's very liberating.
Christmas is a commercial greedfest these days and I, for one, am well out of it.  |
