Basically xmas combines most of the things I hate* into a one-month protracted period.
Family? check
Inane earworms? check
Charity and the spirit of giving? check
"holiday cheer", aka Happiness? check**
Religion? check
people crowding the stores? check
getting stuff you don't like and pretending to? check
glamorizing the wettest, coldest months of the year? check
babies and children? check
*I don't hate getting presents, and I don't hate food.
**Happiness is ok sometimes, but I punch people who tell me to smile. Well, just in my head. OK, in my head I throw them to the pavement head-first so their skulls crack open.
