It's Christmas time!

[Twilight_guy]

After Thanksgiving. Technically after black Friday since that's associated with mass consumerism and chaos and not Christmas. Although December or snow really drives the point home for me.

Edit: whenever I read the title it's in Jack Skellington's voice.

Christmas is meh for me exchange a few gifts and put on pretend plesantries for relatives I have not seen in over a year who just decided to *drop by* then the usual family gathering at some decent restraunt where I will proceed to get royaly hammered to make the night pass by as my relatives move to different tables in embarassment. Ahhh good times.

Christmas for me is when its Christmas Day.

The season starts 24 December 00:01, ends 24 December 23:59.

I haven't looked but are you from Czech Republic by chance?

Nice, this makes...carry the 1...8 different European countries I've been mistaken to be from in my life. Still some poor Italian who thinks I'm from Poland...long story.

To answer you, no sir, I come form the humble commonwealth of Kentucky. Why the Czech Republic though? Prague (Praha) is nice place, should go if you can.

 

[RemmyX25]

I usually don't bring out the Christmas carols until the first good snowfall.

 

[Skeleon]

It starts on December 1st because that's when the Advent calendar starts spawning goodies.

 

[Shepard's Shadow]

After Thanksgiving, before just feels to soon.

 

[Gmano]

The day AFTER remembrance day... Because one should NEVER be thinking about Christmas carols while remembering our soldiers.

 

[IxionIndustries]

Please, at least have have decency to wait until Thanksgiving is over to talk about this shit.

Fucking. Agreed.

I loathe Christmas.. It's a glutton of a holiday. How it just shows up, uninvited, in the other holiday's months, and stays around 'till the last minute, eating all the cookies, until the sun comes back out....

Wait until I've finished my turkey damnit!

I have, it's a wonderful place...

I ask because they celebrate Christmas day on 24th Dec... Not sure why... And they have carp instead of turkey...weird huh?

You stated that Christmas begins and ends on the 24th so I thought you might have been Ceska.

Nevermind, you must have KFC instead of turkey no? Haw haw haw..../silliness

Good man, we are in agreement!

My family always celebrates on 24th, 25th is non event, goes back generations, maybe some ancestors in there are from that part of the world, wouldn't surprise me, half of Europe could claim me (not that they would). We eat friendship bread as custom, turkey is more Thanksgiving thing.

I have never had KFC, I have had homemade fried chicken in Kentucky.

Why do I get excited at the prospect of other peoples christmas's and not mine? Anyhoo, you never know, I believe Poland do it too so there's a good chance that tradition Comes from Europe...

I think you just broke mah interwebz!...

Hah, remind me of French friend when I said I do not eat McDonalds. I'm a bad American, explains much of the confusion.

Hmm, so are you implying that being a bad American is a good thing?

I did not imply good sir, you inferred much to my chagrin. It is a thing, a thing I have been told by Americans and un-Americans (foreigners) alike. I have no view on the matter as I think there are no criteria to meet to be a proper citizen does not exist. I just do not care for fast food is all.

I don't know, not being opinionated and having no love for fast food is a considerably un-Amerian way of thinking...
You had better make sure there are no bugs, no wire taps... You might be committing high treason you know that?

I've never watched NFL or any kind of American Football. I love with a a burning passion Association Football, or Soccer, and watch matches every week, especially (club) DC United and (country) United States!

Now, if that doesn't set off some alarm bells, I might have to consider other countries have good ideas to really set them off.

 

[Woodsey]

When we're in the same f*cking month as it.

Now I love Christmas ("presents? Why thankyou!"), but I saw adverts for sorting out your Christmas shopping in AUGUST.

CHRISTMAS ADS IN SUMMER. GAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!

well us here in the southern hemisphere enjoy a summer Christmas every year... so summer Christmas advertising doesn't invoke such outbursts...

Replace the word summer with winter then and you get the idea.
