I figured with all the good cheer & happiness around, we need some kind of antidote somewhere, so with, tongue firmly in cheek, I think it's a good idea to remind each other why Xmas sucks! ;D Have fun ;D

Oh - the thread for the devil's advocate ;D Why x-mas is a less than optimal time of the year (sucks): - millions of innocent trees die, and are displaced from their natural habitat into over-heated living rooms; - tons of extremely addictive high calory sweets are released on an already overweight society; - money is drained from your account at a rate challenging Niagara Falls; - christmas cards from all over the world are received at last minute, triggering your bad conscience about who you failed to think of; - music in public places and on the radio lacks a certain variety; - there is absolutely nothing on TV that you haven't had a chance to see numerous times within the last decades; - permanent revues on passed events during the last year make you remember the set of good wishes you had at New Year, and of your utter failure in their accomplishment; - the preaching of morals is not boosting your morale, and you fall in the classic x-mas depression, deploring the fate of the world, the decline of humanity and your miserable... I'd better stop^^

Good list, Glance ;D
I'll add:
-- Relatives with no interests whatsoever you have to find presents for, yet who demand extensive lists from you.
-- The postal system is so sieged out that nothing important can or will reach you before New Year at the earliest.
-- Bumper editions of soap operas on TV - like there weren't far too many of them anyway!
-- Turkey for seven days straight
;D

Hey, I just thought of a bad thing about Chrismas. It doesn't last long enough. I always hate to see Christmas Eve and Christmas Day end. Shan
