tbh i find christmas rather pointless. mainly because hardly anyone believes in christianity or the nativity any more. no offence if you do, thats great. im not saying its wrong that you believe in it, its up to you what you believe. im just saying for us people who dont believe, what exactly are we celebrating? it has just turned into a completely commercial holiday.
another annoying thing about christmas is the long lead up especially on TV. its the same crap every year and its boring. for example shows like futurama, south park, etc. shows that are on every day and although theyre repeats, theyre usually different each day and not usually repeated for at least a few months, but as soon as its christmas then the same 4 episodes (the christmas specials) are repeated over and over and thats all its been for the last 2 weeks or so.
and another thing, i went down to asda on thursday just for a couple of little bits (bread, milk, soap powder, etc) i had to carry everything with my hands, there were no baskets or trollys at all. i literally seen a woman stuffing a trolly full of about 6 of everything. i could hardly move around the store. why on christmas week does the whole world and its dog decide to go shopping mad? the shops shut christmas eve, open on boxing day. you dont need to buy 7 months worth of food for a family of 30 just because its christmas week!
theres other little bits that annoy me about christmas but i cba going into them, but to sum it all up... bah humbug
