Every year I get the opportunity to rant about Christmas. I don’t hate Christmas, but Christmas is one day, not the whole month of December! Stores had Christmas decorations in October. Christmas music started playing in November. And people wonder why I’m hella salty about Christmas time. I would say end rant, but there’s a solid chance I am the Grinch incarnate.

You don’t love hearing Christmas music everywhere, all the time from November until the beginning of January.

You see all the commercials about love and relationships during the holidays and it this is your reaction:

Christmas is really just a commercial holiday that companies hype up so people buy more crap they don’t need.

I also think that Christmas sales are a plot set up by the government to overpopulate the roads with the worst drivers.

Oh, and how could I forget that goodwill and peace that people are so eager to share when they literally fight over material items at stores. Slow clap.

Pretty much you spend the month of December like this:

Literally the only great things about holiday time are college football, NBA basketball, and copious amounts of food.

Okay, maybe you do really do like seeing family…and that smell of Christmas time is kind of nice. Oh and having an excuse to not go to class or work is also pretty decent…

 

Happy Holidays.
