More Xmas blues...

What annoys me the most about the season? Let me count the ways... ( in no particular order)


1. blaring Xmas music (usually bad versions of it) from before T-day on... in every single store...

2. radio stations that play nothing but Xmas music from T-day on ~ thank hevvins for iPods!!
I make it a point to call these guys and tell them that not only will I not listen to them, but that I would avoid like the plague any place that advertises with them...

3. the incessant bell ringing in front of stores by the SA group...

4. the assumption that everyone in America is a christian and celebrates Xmas...

5. hypocritical pseudo-christians who get all holy and righteous this time of year... yet are assholes the rest of the year...

6. People who decry the commercialization of Xmas, but then go out and buy tons of gifts for everyone they know, to show how much "Christmas spirit" they have...

7. People who lie to their children about the existence of a Santa Claus... what else do you lie to your children about??

8. people who try (with extra fervor) try to shove their particular brand of christianity down others throats this time of year...

Now, having said all that, I've just pinned my "How DARE you presume I'm a christian?" button to my purse...
