Alright- It is starting to get cold up here in Minnesota.

I am just curious what people are thinking about putting on there wish list this year.

I cant say, wouldn't be appropriate with ladys on site.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Over hyped, over commercialised. I turn into a full on grinch this time of year. It’s just another day like any other except that companies jump on the chance to squeeze as much money out of you as possible. It’s amazing how many perishable goods are in the shops now which have a use by date before December even begins. I could rant all day about xmas shite. Only good thing is the extended break from work.

I’m going to be hibernating again, wake me up in January when it’s all over.

I need a table for my living room so will probably ask Santa to give me some money.

Also on the list (if I don't buy some of these before) :

  • Project Cars 2
  • Assassin's Creed: Origins
  • A bunch of Lego Star Wars starships

(I love this time of year but don't tell Squirrel !)

Only Christmassy thing I tolerate is Fairytale of New York by the Pogues.

Presents are nice too, but not the pressure of getting them for others.

Extra yummy food is always good though, but I don't need Christmas to have that.

Absolutely can't stand all the hype and everything being so damn cheery/sugary/nice... especially all the cheesy music on the radio.

 

We should get together in an Irish pub and drink ourselves to oblivion @Squirrel, then sleep it off until January.

At some point in December i’ll watch Love Actually (One of my favourite films tbh) but that’s like the extent of my own Christmassy things, generally it makes people a little nicer all round I find at that kinda time of year, so I don’t mind all the music n shit. Just not as much a fan when people start getting excited on November 3rd or some shit. And if that hasn’t swayed you snow in gtao is always really good fun with you lot :D

Hmm, I must get my hands on that Julmust stuff, it's promising. Probably best to look for it in an IKEA shop in December (according to Wikipedia), though it's extra hectic in those shops before holidays, unless you visit it on a Tuesday morning or something, so not sure I'm gonna be doing that. I'll try to remember to ask someone to look for it and buy it for me. :)

Christmas was fantastic when I was a child.  Omar and I had pretty amazing childhoods and Christmas was always pretty amazing.  I still enjoy it as an adult and if and when I have kids in a few years I hope I can recreate the experience for them I had when I was young.

Even as an adult it is a good time for me.  My company always has a great Christmas party with lots of food and booze and a nice little bonus check handed out at the end.  Christmas day may still be the only day of the year that my brother, mom, dad and me spend the whole day together beginning to end.  A common theme as the company party: food and booze... and some presents as well.  I agree with others that presents and merchandise are pushed too much on Christmas, but no company can make you spend money.  You have a right to say no as much as they have a right to market and advertise.   And if you have family that makes you feel guilty for not spending money then your family is fucked up and you don't need to be around them IMO.

In all seriousness, if it weren't for my kids I wouldn't do squat for Xmas, my family doesn't really do anything. But for my kids I try to be all happy.

 

As far as anything I want, there isn't really anything I need. My mom always asks me every year and I always tell her whatever she was planning on spending on me just don't and either keep the money or spend it on my kids or my sisters kids

Despite living my life like a child, I dislike Christmas. I'm not religious in any way, so I don't buy into the hype like others do. Of course I still buy presents for the Mrs and children in my family, but a bible story doesn't really justify spending hundreds of pounds on stuff when I'd buy it regardless, but whatever I guess.

It's too much hassle just for 1 day, it's no different to any other day. I don't want anything,  already have everything I want.

I rate Christmas after Good Friday and just ahead of Ash Wednesday :P

And yeah, I'm fun at parties :D
