Who does not celebrate Christmas????

How does it feel to have all this Christmass stuff going on and you not being total part of it all?????

What was it like as a child for you with all your friends going on about new toys etc.....

Mostly it's annoying. Oh hot shit, it's the most commecialized holiday of the year, and to about 90% of the poeple who 'celebrate' it, it means nothing more than lots of frustration as you jockey to find a parking space in the overcrowed mall and shopping center parking lots, overpaying for a lot of useless shit that the recipients probably won't like, gathering with people whom you have nothing in common with except either a workplace or DNA and you hate, and of course, eating a bunch of crap that's really bad for you. (Run on sentance, I know.)

Christmas is one of the main reasons I'm not Christian. I celebrated Christmas until I was about 14, when I realized that it was nothing more than a money-making giant crock of shit anymore, and that all it meant was the things I mentioned above.

I don't mean to be a Scrooge, but you asked, and I answered honestly.

Thanks for your honesty.

Yes the retailers are the reason for Christmas more than the birth of a baby these days I think...

I myself are in it all for the gift giving and seeing the enjoyment on childrens faces on Christmas morning.... I have only celebrated the birth of my own babies.
