Trackdaybob Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Is it me or is the usual expected festive bombardment by tv, media, p***ks at work somewhat lacking this year. Perhaps people are far too busy with the poppy frenzy. Then there's black friday I suppose to keep them occupied. Or maybe, just maybe, my filter has turned up to 11. Anyways, I've not been seeing it. Not even some w**k with his lights up. Yet. No bad thing IMO. It'll not be far away though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I feel like it's started a lot earlier this year. Or I'm just getting old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 There's loads of folk on my facebook posting pictures of Will Farrell in Elf, getting all excitable. I genuinely hope they have a horrible Christmas and their kids hate everything "Santa" buys them. Like the poppy, Christmas has lost all meaning. My hatred for this time of year grows each year.

Boghead ranter Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Christmas - when you buy things you can't really afford, for people you don't really like, and you're not sure they'll even really want them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas has lost all meaning? I'll take the time off work, Christmas night out with the work and then pals plus the all day session on the day over any meaning Christmas might once have had.

I totally agree. I love Christmas. However it should be confined to the month of December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starts in September here - I'm considered a Scrooge because I won't put up the tree until December 1st at the earliest. If the wife and son want to look at a Christmas tree in September they have plenty of neighbours trees to look at. I love Christmas though.

Priti priti priti Patel Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 The last Christmas I celebrated was 2014. In 2015 I was living in a wee town and saw how as soon as the one shop in the town changed its display and in store music, everyone changed what they talked about and the convo became Christmas. It was such an obvious demonstration of the annual Xmas exploitation of the masses. Honestly much prefer not being a part of it. Much easier. Bit depressing to watch from the outside though.
