Scrooge + Grinch = me

Second, am I the only person left in this world who actually likes fruitcake? No, I'm not undead. No, I don't have a teflon coated stomach. No, I didn't have my tastebuds removed. I actually like fruitcake (color me crazy).

I think I'm tired of this kind of post. You know we can all still read the original post, right?

And its only true for about 1/5 the population of the world. The rest of us like presents and family.

I'l glad someone else is not conforming to the masses, like sheep to celebrate xmas. I hate this hoilday. Always have, always will. I never do anything, no point.

Ah the 'comparision to sheep' analogy not see you for nigh on 3 hours!

heheheh 'Captain Sunshine' indeed...

Pace yourself there, Captain Sunshine. You gotta save some hate for New Years too.

And Valentine's Day.
And Groundhogs Day! Don't forget Groundhog's Day! Geeze, if there's a single holiday worthy of our dislike and derision, it's that worship of big dirt-digging rats...

There's something unpleasant to be seen in every holiday. But if we don't learn to see beyond unplesant things, life becomes pretty darn dismal right quick.

I think that to some degree, breaking existing holiday traditions is one of the milestones of adulthood. It shows that you are establishing indenpendance from what the family has always done and making your own traditions that suit your lifestyle and accomodations you make for new people in your life.

Not just lifestyle and accomodations - downright differences in personality, too. Part of that "the life unexamined is not worth living" thing. How can you really be celebrating if you don't actively make it your own?

It took you this long? I'm more tired of the posts where they change what the person said to something completely opposite (or insulting to the orriginal poster) then write "fixed it for you." But the "quoted for ____" are annoying too.

Sorry.

I ate a bunch of good fruitcakes around Christmas time in Argentina. They call them pan dulces, and instead of being hard and bricklike, they are soft and fluffy. Sorta like a woman's breast, but with bits of dried fruit sprinkled throughout. Mmm..mmm. Good stuff.

No, seriously, the pan ducle was good stuff. I just can't resist making booby jokes.

Quoted for truth. Nothing to fix.

I spare you my righteous wrath due to your holiday stress.... but next time... SANTARCHY!

For me it is the inherent dishonesty in the holiday that gets me. I hate it when people lie and isn't that what all this Santa stuff is? A big lie?
Bah Humbug I say.
