Am I the only one that dislikes Xmas?

besides, it's a a pagan holiday

You are not alone Amigo.
It really sucks a fat one.
Pagan crap.
Cannot wait till its over.

Me too.....the fact I can't get into the shops cos they are packed with fucking idiot annoys me more than anything.....I bought the few presents I buy back in November for my son and my parents.....I dont send cards , I do however enjoy the food , I went shopping to the supermarket on Wednesday armed with a list and managed to get everything I will be needing , I m going to my older sons Xmas Eve and I take bits and bobs of buffet food , got parents here Xmas Day so will cook a roast dinner , then Boxing Day I go to my friends and we are having a 70's themed buffet.....the only thing I need venture out for will be some milk......

its for brainwashing children.

You get out of it what you put into it. If you concentrate on the materialism, then you get negative energy back. If you concentrate on the happiness that this time of year brings to people you will get positive. Everyday we should be joyful and ready to give. I am happy about Christmas because this year is the first one in which my brother was able to buy gifts for my niece, and I am happy for him. I love the music, too. Life is what you make of it. Enjoy and celebrate every minute of it, while you can.

I don't like christmas and I have no idea why. Yes, it is a pagan holiday, yule, but that doesn't bother me. I just can't put my finger on it.

You have all missed the meaning of Christmas.

Christmas is for women and children

And gays.

I dont like the consumeristic frenzy of it all
Suicides spike at this time of year..people feeling left out..or cos they cant keep up with the joneses..or because they miss loved ones..

Ill never forget one Christmas..I was walking in town and I heard a loud thump then screaming..so I ran towards the noise..and there on the ground lay a woman..dying..she had jumped out the window..but she was still conscious..her eyes were open..she was choking on her blood..I kneeled by her..and tried to soothe and reassure her..she just kept looking in my eyes..and everyone was screaming ..saying she is dying..I started shouting telling them all to shut up and call an ambulance..I just knelt there telling her she would be ok..and she just kept looking and fainting..then coming round again..and looking at me..

They eventually took her away..they had to perform surgery on the street to help her breath

She died

i later found out that her little girl had died and she couldnt take the pain of being without her for Christmas..

the neighbors didnt even know her name or her daughters

something wrong with this society..where a woman is left on her own to grieve like that..

Ill never forget her

may she rest in peace

This one's made for you. Keep it simple mang.

another story hit the news too..around Christmas..

they found an old lady dead by her bed..kneeling in prayer..she had died kneeling in prayer..by her bed

she had died of cold..so the report was..it was Christmas..and her electricity and heating had been cut off because she couldnt pay the bills

she died of cold..kneeling by her bed..praying..all alone

Gave up on AntiChristmas 3 years ago, and went through a lot of crap from family and friends for it. Worst time of the year.

so many untold sad stories..poignant at Christmas..while we drink merry..the lost ones..the forgotten ones..the rebuked ones..the lonely ones..the unwanted ones..the poor ones..the ill ones...the old ones...the abandoned ones...

Another story to share..

I lived next to a Monastery..they had a lodge..covered..where they used to hook up the horses..

It was Christmas..and it was snowing..there was a man..*I guessed it was a man by the size feet and boots as I couldnt see his face* that slept there..under that roof..next to the monastery..he slept all day..I dont know if he woke up at night....he was always covered in rags and blankets..I used to go up and bring him food etc..and leave them by his side..

I lived alone so I couldnt invite him to stay..but I used to lie awake thinking of him and others lying out in the cold..with the snow..

For Christmas..I went up and left by his bed with him sleeping under the blankets a bottle of champagne..a champagne glass and a big Christmas Dessert..knife..fork..plate..serviette..the lot..there he was sleeping..and I would have loved to see his face when he woke up..I hoped it made him happy
it made me happy

I always think of all these stories at Christmas..and I just bring myself to indulge..I cant ..because like them there are others..

And those others..the homeless ones..is whom I am going to spend my Christmas with

And Im thrilled

there's this guy called the Grinch...

NOOO YOUR CHRISTMAS SPIRIT IS GONE :'(
I have this sudden urge to feed you christmas food, give you christmas presents and sing christmas songs to you and decorate your apartment and stuff like that now. :(

I can't wait for Christmas to be over. I'm not against the celebration of Christmas, it's just overdone with the commercialism and awful music and such.

Man, you a true sweetheart all the way through!
Me, I'm bah humbug all the way.
Last year I avoided it all except a neighbour saw me trying to hide and invited me over for a barbeque.
