a) Jean Claude Van Damme is belgian.

b) He actually did an advert for WoW so if anything, he'd be telling Jean Paul Gaultier to fuck off and join a WoW server ;)

Matters not! he's a man with a famous french name :p he was born "Jean-Claude Camille François Van Varenberg" despite his little advert for WoW I stand by what I said! he is the french scrooge!

christmas is just the english/christian world's name for scandinavian yule. a kickass winter festival. and in nordic countries we do not celebrate christmas for the sake of christmas, we actually have yule (jul, jól, joulu, jõulud etc) instead with the most important day being the 24th.
christmas is not a bunch of bullshit, its just a wannabe yule! and yule rocks.

Chrimbo is another excuse to get fucking slaughtered, really though....All my mates just think of xmas as a few days off and a good fucking pissup, some good munch and the odd bit of sex.

Christmas rocks, only time of the year you properly see the family. Then get drunk and have a few good nights out. Enjoy some quality christmas tv. Good food, everyone seems a little happier as pretty much everyone is on holiday. Its a nice break even without the presents and religious ties.

Christmas for me is basically the name for the day once a year I get new socks and underwear and eat nice food.

If you know how to party, and make a great time im sure you think of enough reasons why christmas isn't 'a load of bollocks'.

And if you plan some things nice, you might even have a very nice time.
