As some of you know, for the most part, Christmas pisses me off. It makes me as grumpy as Moebius with a toothache. There are the obvious generalities; commercialism, TV re-runs, people sending sycophantic cards to people they don't like. . .

But I was thinking of some specifics.

  • Those cheap foil-wrapped chocolate Christmas Tree decorations that look so enticing until you realise they're 30% anthrax, 20% latex and 40% dog-Shit
  • That FUcking Muzac that pervades every mall, store and elevator
  • The Wizard of ******* Oz
  • The washed up celebrity on TV on Christmas morning leering over bald leukaemic kids as they open gifts in their hospital beds.
  • Hassles for a Christmas tip from knuckle-dragging postmen/refuse collectors/newspaper boys who spend the other 51 weeks of the year trampling your garden, kicking your dog and spitting on your doorstep.
  • The miserable cUnts in the office who won't lift a fUcking finger to help you all year round expecting you to go for a 'Christmas drink' when you'd musch rather visit them in a fUcking morgue


Oh that feels better.

Over to you

What's the other 10%? What does the Wizard of Oz have to do with Christmas? And what's wrong with the Wizard of Oz anyway?

As for what I don't like:

--The self-indulging bastardizations of Christmas songs that pop singers love to produce.

--Tinsel.

--"The War on Christmas" and everything to do with it.

Exmiss must be much different over the pond because I can't connect to any of those aside from the music thing. Even then, we usually get lyrics with our piped-in holiday store tunes over here.


"Wizard of Oz?"

No you don't!!!! Smiley: motz

Honestly, the joy of "fUck you" is exceeded only by the income from ebaying their Shitty gifts in January.

It's liberating

The Wizard of Oz?

How about the 24 hour marathon of A Christmas Story... After about 3 watchings of that, I'm done.

What bugs me most about the Christmas season is the sudden appearance in the local news of needy, deserving families.

Not that needy, deserving families bother me, as a general rule. But why are they ONLY deserving now? They were needy in August, right? Why didn't we hear about them THEN?

I think I over-internalized the whole "keep Christmas in your heart all year" thing when I was a kid. I'm continually disappointed by the sudden upsurge of charity in December and the subsequent falloff in January.
