I don't like New Year's Eve, I much prefer the Xmas period, as long as
I'm able to enjoy it. Unfortunately, there have been many years when I
could not.
I would really enjoy a nice Victorian style Xmas. Everything seemed
more peaceful and less commercial and values less shallow. - Though, of
course, I may have felt differently if I'b been around at that time and
had not been wealthy enough to have a good time at Xmas.
The main thing is good health, shelter, and pleasant surroundings.
Anything else is just icing on the cake, as it were.

An air rifle to shoot out all those poxy Christmas lights that more and
more people seem to be festooning the outsides of their houses with
these days. Failing that, the two lumps of coal that someone wished on

Personally, I agree. I don't do Christmas. Haven't done for years. I
realised that it was just another deadline, just another set of
obligations and pressure and expense. So, I decided to opt out.
Looking at the joyless throngs of Christmas shoppers I see up my local
High Street every weekend, whey-faced and scowling, grimly buying up
cartloads of tat just because they think they should, I realise what a
wise decision I made. It's so pleasant to stand back from the madness,
thinking, 'All this has *nothing* to do with me!'

Just in case anyone thought they were being short-changed by such an
uncharacteristically short Crassmas rant, here's another thing that's
been driving me round the Yuletide bend:
Topping my ever-growing list of festive pet hates this year are those
maddeningly mundane missives known as round robins – those nauseating
newsletters full of predictable, pointless piffle that drop forth from
Trojan horse Christmas cards.
Needless to say, the excruciatingly banal happenings in the lives of
far-removed relatives and vaguely-remembered family friends have had me
reaching for the vomit bags in shockingly profligate quantities. The
formulaic, anal-retentive details obviously come straight off some sort
of home DTP program template. All the round robin-composer has to do is
insert their family members' names in the appropriate places and then
mass-mail the same load of toss every Christmas. Year after year, it's
the same mind-numbingly turgid trivia about dad having more time to
improve his golfing handicap since semi-retiring; mum taking up evening
classes in cheese-making; son getting four As in his A-levels but being
disappointed that he only got a B+ in his fifth subject (boy, what a
letdown to the family he must be); daughter backpacking her gap year
through French Guiana; the family holiday in Bahrain (now they've
finally figured out Photoshop we get an entire album's worth of
accompanying photos). Yawn, yawn...
What I want to know is why these round robins never contain the faintest
whiff of scandal or real drama. Why is it that the sort of people who
send out this crap (and who clearly think the rest of the world will be
rivetingly excited by it) always seem to be the perfect goody-two-shoes
bourgeoisie nuclear family types? Why do they never report such things
as Dad Round Robin getting zapped by lightening while on the 38th hole
and consequently developing psychic powers? Mrs Round Robin discovering
the delights of dogging? The Round Robin sprogs getting busted for
smuggling nose candy through Thailand or being blown to pieces by an
exploding Ariane-5 rocket while straying too near to the launch pad at
Kourou?
Poxy round robins: one more reason why I HATE F.....G CHRISTMAS

On the other hand it's a great time to buy luggage. Nobody else is and you
get the bonus of walking home wheeling great big cases through crowds of
confused looking shoppers whilst running over thir children. Best fun I've

They're HORRIBLE! The only people who used to send me those were people
who'd lived in the US, where apparently it's perfectly acceptable, but
now I find more and more people sending them.
I may include letters with my cards, but every one is hand written and
actually talks to the recipient and asks them about their year too.
The other thing that annoys me about round robins is that they always
come from people who haven't bothered to get in touch on any of the
other 364 days of the year or respond in any way to proper letters.
Letters should be like a long-distance conversation, not a newsletter.

I got that, but have been listening to Mr Hankys christmas 'tunes'

Anyway there's only one thing that pisses me off more than celibrating xmas
and that's being told you can't celibrate it as it'll offend other religous
beliefs..

I'm going to half-agree with both of you. I hate Christmas and New Years
Eve.
For a start, Im an Antheist so Christmas has no religious or spiritual
significance to me. The crowded shops and car parks are just a major
inconvenience if I want to do some "normal" shopping, but the bit I really
hate is that all my friends disappear off to do family type stuff and
the pubs are too packed to enjoy a night out with those who are left.

Hear, hear! The last few years I've held festive gatherings of friends
who either can't or don't want to do Family Shit(TM) for Christmas, but
they've dispersed all over the world so it's not happening this year.
It still beats the hell out of Christmas with my family. Who are fine
for the rest of the year, but the festive season with them is a serious
pain.

I'm not complaining about those this year.
Those of you who follow my livejournal will know in too much detail
about the activities of my neighbours in Scum Central and how they made
my life a living hell during the football and in firework season.

A genuine personal touch like that makes a world of difference from the
churned-out, identikit impersonal bilge that constitutes the typical
round robin,

Quite. Mass-mailing standard-form newsletters makes the round
robin-sender feel important. They think that all and sundry, no matter
how distantly aquatinted, are going to be enormously interested in the
minutiae of the yearly round of their lives.
Next year I'm going to fight back by replying to the round robinites
with my own spoof round robins detailing an 'annus surrealibis' of
totally OTT adventures and personal crises. Something along the lines
of: "This year, I decided to finance a military coup in a neighbouring
African country but the plot was rumbled and now I'm under house arrest
in my Cape Town villa while awaiting trial, It's the worst thing that
happened to me since getting lost in the Sahara during that rally, Not
to worry, though, Mummy will get me out of it again. As she likes to

Hmm, I suppose that's one small mercy: at least the blasted damn fool
full-house illuminations don't intrude into one's own home, Unless
they're so strong as to penetrate the curtains and keep one awake at
night. Then too, the types who like to turn their dwellings into
multicoloured blinking beacons are usually the same people who
floodlight half the street with stadium-strength halogen (in)security
lamps all night all year round, thus forcing their hapless neighbours to

Now that gives me an idea[1], ready for next years festivities, a small
adapter that connects to the lights for power and contains a small memory
chip that holds various christmas carols in a highly compressed MP3
type format (so it's crappy and tinny sounding) with a small amplifier of
about 50w (less than a light bulb) weather proof for connecting to outside
decorations.
I can even see the ad campaign little kids smiling happily as they stand in
amazement infront of the house while listening to 'jingle bells' that can be
heard
from the end of the street.
It brings a tear to ones eye. :-)

Christmas is fine. Christmas in November, not fine; and this year the
traditional bulwark provided by Halloween and Guy Fawkes was breached,
with Christmas crap in October.
When I am El Presidente Dictator for Life Father of his People
Generalissimo etc. decorations will go up at most one (1) week in advance
and be down by Twelth Night at the latest.
Irritatingly Tesco have a nice mulled wine in with their Christmas junk. I
would buy it all year round given the chance.

Well, without wishing to go into all the debate about Xmas being a
reworking of an ancient pagan festival, etc., I don't feel that one has
to be a Christian to enjoy the festive time of year.
I merely enjoy the atmosphere of it all, the traditional Xmas music,
the Yuletide fare, the fairy lights, the whole shebang actually,
sentimental old fool that I am.

Xmas music (with a few exceptions such as "Fairytale Of New York") is
absolute garbage. The prospect of going into a shop and hearing the
usual Slade or Wizzard songs makes me cringe. It's even worse if it's some

Yes, "Fairytale Of New York" is merely one of the most fucking depressing

Given the ever-advancing tide of yearly Yuletide yuk, I'm surprised this
nightmare scenario hasn't already happened. I can well imagine people
taking the Noel nonsense arms-race to the next stage of vulgar
intrusiveness by rigging their houses with PA systems blasting kitsch
carols across the neighbourhood. A sonic attack on this scale would
drive me utterly insane within a very short period of time: it would
likely enter my head as a unstoppable meme. Only today, after a trip to
a branch of a well-known chemist's, I ended up with The Wombles'
Christmas Song cycling endlessly through my skull. "All day long we will
be wombling in the sun. We wish you a wombling merry Christmas." I still

You don't even like the Coventry Carol? It sounds suitably mournful to

I actually enjoy most festive music, from traditional carols, to Bing
Crosby's White Christmas, to Cliff Richard's Mistletoe and Wine, to
some of the early music renditions of Xmas music.

Seriously though, it's more the _associations_ that make the tunes
pleasurable for me, rather than the actual music itself. Certainly that
applies to the Cliff song, which I only like because of pleasant
associations with it, pertaining to the Xmas season.
