Running Pro-/Anti-Holiday Thread

Good God!!! Even at the bottom of the page for this thread there's a Christmas-oriented ad (from candle co. called firststreetonline.com)!!!

 

Thank you, ArnoldBaker....Nice to know I am not alone.

 

Let's not forget the true meaning of Christmas: The birth of Santa.

 

It's that time of year:

 

Try drugstores carrying Christmas stuff and Carlton Cards in mid July. Happened here in Halifax. Now that is scary...what were they expecting snow in July. I know our weather is crazy but COME ON!

 

THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!

 

I prefer Easter, when we celebrate the resurrection of the Easter Bunny.

 

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch.

 

Or, to quote Ebenezer Scrooge:

"What's Christmas time to you but a time for paying bills without money; a time for finding yourself a year older, but not an hour richer; a time for balancing your books and having every item in 'em through a round dozen of months presented dead against you? If I could work my will, every idiot who goes about with 'Merry Christmas' on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart."

 

I was called "Scrooge" all last Christmas season because I, a single dude who lived alone in a house he could barely afford if he didn't work two-full time jobs and only spent six hours a day in said house, four of which were sleeping, didn't buy a tree and decorate my house in Christmas droppings.

This year, I'm doing the same thing. Only I'll be doing it in a different place.

 

The assault on Christmas continues.
