Why:

do I not feel Christmassy?
do most people suck?
is there more porn documentaries on TV than actual porn itself?

Anyone want to rant with there own Why?™ feel free.

Christmas has passed me by totally this year (well, not literally, its not come about yet) and though I've done my xmas shopping, most of it was done online because I really couldn't be fussed with trapsing around looking for shit presents for shit people.

People suck, individuals are fine (now there's a sociological statement, blasphemised).

There are porn documentaries? What do those entail?

  • Why complain about the lack of porn on TV when you have an internet connection?
  • Why did 'Saved by the bell' become 'The New Class' after the first group left, but never changed sub-title again with subsequent character changes?

1) Because christmas is a shit, commercial, meaningless, excuse to make money, pile of shit.
2) Because people in general are becoming increasingly unintelligent (just look at todays youth, it's a disgrace).
3) Because TV aren't allowed to show good porn.

Sucks.

Aye, xmas is shite. Flatmates badgered me into agreeing to get an xmas tree. Almost attacked it with a power-saw to make a statement on the state of xmas in 2001

Christmas shoppers anger me intensly. I hate being places when they are busy, especially when most people are irritating obnoxious fuckheads. They also cram up the area surrounding the highstreet on sundays, which I use all year round for parking for the snooker hall. It pisses me off that my routine gets disrupted because these wankers want to cram in their faggot christmas shopping for their faggot presents for their faggot familys.

I fucking hate the general public, and christmas, so much that I'm sure I'll commit some sort of murder/GBH crime one day.

Thing is though, when christmas rolls around, what's the first thing that pops into peoples minds? It's along the lines of:

  • Oh shit, what will I get so-n-so for xmas!
  • What if they don't like it!
  • What should I get my bird?!
  • I wonder if they already have it?
  • etc...

It's all consumerism. Worrying about how much to spend, on what, and for whom. Now, don't get me wrong, I think this whole jesus malarky is fucking hilarious (not trying to offend anyones beliefs, stating my opinion of which I am perfectly entitled to).

I don't think that christmas should return to its sentimental dogmatic religious claptrap that it used to be, nor stay a consumerist frenzy sending many poorer families into financial straits for the next 6 months.

What I do think it should be about is a sense of community, and comaraderie. This was certainly more present 10/15 years ago than it is now. A sense of a communal time-out, time to be with friends and close ones, a time to reflect on the year gone by.

Anyway, I need more caffine

Snooker Players anger me intensly. I hate being places when they are playing, especially when most people are irritating obnoxious safety players. They also cram up the area surrounding the highstreet on sundays, which I use all year round for parking for Christmas Shopping. It pisses me off that my routine gets disrupted because these ball bouncers want to cram in their pocketing skills for their endless 147 breaks.

I hate the snooker players, and during the Embassy world series, so much that I'm sure I'll commit some sort of spontanious flower arrangement one day.

Furthermore to my previous point, it makes me laugh how people fret endlessly (including me) about what presents to get people. WHat you have to remember is that ordinarily, it's something they wouldn't have got. And as such, they should be grateful as fuck they got it.

Christmas, what does it all mean to me?

Once upon a time, it was when I got a few presents, a huge meal, and saw all my old relatives.
Nowadays, it's either a few days off work, or triple time and a day in lieu.

Christmas shopping...I only get a few for my close mates and immediate family. Got my flatmate some nice tropical fish for his tank, one has started eating all the others already - what a nice present.:D

I prefer the food to the presents.
Came home from shopping with the fucking biggest load of decent food ever. Presents? I've not even considered getting anything for a moment, which means I'll probably get money, or socks. I'd be more than willing to bet I get more socks than money :) (no bad thing, stops me having to get more for a while)

rah the fucking food.

I dont even feel like doing xmas cards this year. HAvent even put the lights up around my room (and that i usually enjoy doing).

I think its because I work part time in retails, drains any xmas spirit out of you.

However it could also be that I am not a christian nor a young child that sees xmas as a chance to get a new toy.

The problem is if you buy someone a shit present, and they buy you a good one. They can be gratefull they have something they wouldn't have, but knowing they could have just kept something better...

Giving everyone chrimbo presents is stupid. As long as the people don't know each other, you could just get the same thing for several people, and save yourself having to look for several good presents.

I think we are all missing the real point of christmas. It is a time of jubilent celebration in remembrance of the birth of our lord Jesus Christ.

As if you should all need a reminder;)

Why......


...is it that I always seem to be last in the queue when it comes to christmas shopping? It can grow longer and longer and never show signs of slowing up, but then I join the back and it starts getting shorter again, and no-one joins after. Bugs me :(

And I dont really give a rats ass about the state of Christmas, it's true meaning, or whatever. I just like the atmosphere provided with all the decorations and trees and all that. Doesn't it make you feel all warm inside? :) And when it snows, it's awesome... just looking outside seeing everything white...

And then of course there's the parties, the pulling and everyone in a happy mood... /me goes all dreamy...

Seriously, providing you're not in a commercial business, what's wrong with Christmas?
Or you could just call me naive :(

Yeh we wasnt too bothered about xmas this year (me and missus) but shes been to a few friends houses and seen the trees they have and its convinced her to buy one. Think it was from argos for about £15. Comes with decorations :)

Oh shit, what will I get so-n-so for xmas!

What if they don't like it!

What should I get my bird?!

I wonder if they already have it?

etc...

Didnt think of any of these but maybe thats cause im a man with no money who doesnt give a shit.
