Re: Merry Christmas to all my PALS on Saddo!
With the rampant commercialism and religious wars going on, I think people have forgotten the true meaning of Christmas.
It seems Santa was crucified for nothing. People should reacquaint themselves by reading the Book of Genesis by Phil Collins.

Have you ever eaten a Partridge for a Holiday Dinner.

Re: Merry Christmas to all my PALS on Saddo!
The stupid wastefulness of Christmas is what gets me. What is the bloody point of a cracker and a paper crown?They have to be up there in the list of most pointless things and the chopping down of healthy trees to let them decay in a living room too. Plus Santa is an anagram of satan and is creepy. I've never understood that one either.

Christmas Is For Kids
Re: Merry Christmas to all my PALS on Saddo!
And the debt that goes with it. Christmas is cool to say 'I'm alive' and 'Are you alright?', but the rest is definitely very naff. Kids only like it because of ths naff stuff they are programmed to like. I mean, that Santa thing is not something you would have a natural affinity for. Odd.

So you think {assume} that Christmas is only about presents and Santa Claus.
You must be living in 'a box'.

Modern Christmas is an excuse to indulge to credit damaging extremes. I merely posit that the excesses of Christmas spoil it and that a simple family meal would be more than enough for most without all the useless tat. Just enjoy your family and leave it at that would be my approach (though I never go home for Christmas as there isn't enough space for me anymore with all the children raising children in my family...I'm a bloody great Uncle at 35! It is one of the reasons I rail against children that breed.)

It sounds like you are one 'fun' Bastard at Christmas.
Hey, here comes Uncle Gandalf.
Aw Geez. I hate him.

I'm siding with Billy on this one.
Miles is Scrooge incarnate.

I have never been home at Christmas. We adhere to my kind of thinking on the issue. The goal is not to be fun, but to stay true to your ideals.
I've no idea who the kids are. None of my business.
Christmas is fun by treating it as any other day and to not get lost in the foolish hallucinations of the general public.
Re: Merry Christmas to all my PALS on Saddo!
There's nothing fun about christmas for adults that booze all year round. I normally end up looking at people thinking how can they be that pissed from such little booze.
Also, buying presents for people that I don't really want to is funking stupid. But I do it. Because i'm a cunt.

Aw, he's OK. I just wish he wouldn't fill his pockets with candy when he leaves.
