Bought some egg nog today
I'm officially ready for Christmas movie season to start this Friday!
shareIt's too early for "Christmas." We haven't even celebrated Halloween yet.
When stores put up "Christmas" decorations in September and the Hallmark Channel airs "Christmas" movies in July, it cheapens what should be a special time of year. I've overheard people in December talking about how glad they will be when Christmas is over. How sad.
December 1 is early enough for Christmas music, decorations and programming.
Nah. Late October is the ideal time to start watching Christmas movies.
shareNo, October means Halloween, although that holiday is also being ruined when stores put up Halloween candy displays in the middle of summer.
Keep the holidays in their proper places. Oversaturation and overkill ruin these special days. October 1 is early enough for Halloween and December 1 is early enough for "Christmas." And if you live in the U.S. November is time for Thanksgiving Day, a holiday that gets little mention because it has been overshadowed by "Christmas" commercialism and greed.
(I put "Christmas" in quotations because what is being celebrated here is materialism and consumerism, not the holiday.)
Don’t waste your time, he’s lost in the nog.
shareAlready put my tree up. Don't know why, I was just in the mood for christmas early this year. Maybe the world's gonna blow up before we get there.
shareAnd you will be tired of it by the time December arrives. The old saying about "too much of a good thing" applies here.
The holiday season should remain a special time of year. There are so few holidays left anymore. Don't spoil the experience.
Exactly.
