The official 'I hate christmas' thread...

[TopSecret]

Am I the only one that actually hates christmas?

I don't like the whole family thing... basically cos my family is boooooring and their favourite topics are illnesses, deaths and right now my sister's pregnancy... the last one is the only rather interesting one... but not really.

So yeah, I will be forced to visit my grandparents who fight all day long... I 'have to' go there cos they haven't seen me in such a long time... yay. If they wanna see me... they know where I live, so they can always say hi. Then my grandma will tell me the same thing over and over and over again... and then get mad when I tell her that I've heard the story already...
After that she will keep on fighting with my grandpa...
Then my mom and my sis wanna go out for dinner... I don't want to... I'm not in the mood for things like that *shrug*. Plus going to an italian restaurant isn't really a christmas thing in my opinion.

Also I miss my little bunny... he died December 12, 2004... it's a year now but I still miss him like hell. So christmas will always remind me of him and it hurts and it sucks.
R.I.P.

There is only one person that I would love to spend christmas with... but that person is 7000 miles away... on another continent... oh well, sucks ass. I miss the man...

I just think that christmas isn't what it is supposed to be anymore... everything is just about buying something for someone, not really thinking about what, just buy something so you have something... it is not about spending time together anymore, it is such a commercial thing now.... bah.

There is only one thing I really like and really want but I don't even have that... a christmas tree... a real one. I would love to have a real bigass christmas tree and spend my time decorating it... but we don't really have the space at the moment

I don't want any presents either... lol... but I know my family and again they will waste money on candy or some other more or less stupid thing and then I will have to play the happy one etc... if they at least would give me money... lol.

So yeah, christmas sucks, I hate it... thinking about next weekend makes me feel... weird *shudders*

You will grow out of how you feel about Christmas when you get a little older and a little more mature.

I think just about everyone feels the same way at about your age. I didn't too much, but my brother did alot.

Trust me, you will grow out of it and it will get better.

I dunno, it might be. Don't really see how it has something to do with being mature or not...
I am just not a family person... I prefer being alone... instead of wasting my time sitting around somewhere and listening to people talking about illnesses and death... I mean come on, that's all they talk about... :nono:


Jeff: LOL, that is awesome.

Yeah, I suppose that could be a downer. But it'll change.

Then start talking about something else.

This kind of reminds me a of conversation I had at a party one time. One of my friends was nervous about going to college cause she thought she was gonna get a weird roomate. I simply told her, go to college with the intent of being "the weird roomate." Because whoever your roomate is, is sitting around with her friends thinking "what if I have a weird roomate."

MORAL: Instead of sitting around and pouting, make the best of the situation by CHANGING IT!

i like christmas because i see everyone unknowingly partaking in their traditional pagan rituals.

you think I never tried that?!
I did... and then 5min they talk about something else and then someone will start talking about illnesses again... or my grandparents just start fighting :3d_frown: ... so after years of trying, I gave up.

Also there is no one in my age there really... closest would be my sis with 28... the rest is older... my cousin is 6 or 7 or something... meh. :cry:

oh well... good thing: christmas is only ONCE a year... for the rest of the time (whenever there is a birthday or so), I'll just go to canada again, lol.

Festivus is correct

Christmas has turned into the biggest marketing day of the year. It is just disturbing.

 

[IJ.]

Back in the early 90's I had a serious Car accident and came out of a Coma 2 days before Christmas, I used to hate Christmas but now look at each one I see as a bonus!

It's all a matter of perspective Bella, this is life it isn't a practice run and if you wait for things to be "better" it'll have passed you by.

:withstupi

my cousin is 6 or 7 or something... meh.

There you go, little kids are fun. Just play hide and seek or a game with your cousin.

I absolutely hate kids.... so much you wouldn't believe it... just seeing them makes me sick. sorry, lol.

hahahah, man i love christmas, why because i have a biggg family, 10 uncles and aunts 65 first cusins, 30 somethin 2nd cusins(1st cusins kids they young'ins), yesterday(sun) the week before christmas, we all get together and enjoy the company of each other. we aren't a rich family, so gift giving isnt a think we do. we do give small gifts to the little ones(like 10 years old is last time to get something), this just to keep them occupied during the 10 hours of fun. , this is the third year we do a lottery thing, its $20 to play and your name goes into a bucket the last persons name that is draw wins the money, it was $340 this year, and it was funny seeing my uncles get pissed cause their names were drawn. then we play a game called chiness christmas or dirty christmas, where if your # is called u go get a gift off of a table, you can open it up or steal someone elses gift, if your the first person tough shit, LOL. to play all u need to do is bring a $5 gift or below or above doesnt matter. some funny stuff that was brought this year was a youth jock strap LOL, it was wrapped in a huge box, and some raccon piss that me and the closer cusins got as wally world in the hunting department as a joke (it ended up sprayed on his car, lol) the gifts that were faught over this year was a bottle of Jack and a DVD player.
thats mainly the stuff we do, besides food.
with a family so big the food that is brought is rediculus we could feed a damn army for a week or two.
there was over 25 pies this year, 6 turkeys and 5 hams, spiked eggnog and tons of coke(we dont like pepsi).
so bella what u need to do is find your "family" even if its not ur blood relitives, christmas is not a time for getting or giving but a time to relax and have fun, joke, drink and be merry.

Well you are just not an easy person to please. Sounds like you should just crawl into a hole and wallow in your own feces. Cause it sounds you enjoy sitting in your own doo-doo's anyway.
Sorry...

 

[MDCmotorsports]

I'll actually chime in on this one...

Yes I do hate the hollliday rush. Rush here. Rush there. Kiss every one's @$$ that you don't like... eat.... rush back again... yada yada...blown tons of cash you don't have.....

I do though love Christmas. Spending time with my family that I love, and spending money that I don't have on people I love, and eating the good food (not aunt millies fruitcake, you know what I mean). Also, (I know the scholars have the "date" up for debate) I cherish the fact that this is a spiritual holliday for me and alot of other people.

Yeah, I kind of agree here. You need to lighten up a little.

I bet if you were with your b/f Christmas would be great. You remind me alot of a friend I had when I was 20. She was 19, she hated Christmas, hated kids, thought it was cooler to hang with friends and b/f's 100's of miles away rather then be with her family. Didn't appreciate anything anyone did for her, even would tear open gifts given to here before Christmas, then complain about it to me.

Said she would never get married and have kids because she hated them, blah, blah, blah.

Last I heard she lived by herself in apartment and is now cleaning houses for a living. In addition, she was reportedly so depressed and alone that she began/continued to do drugs.

Not saying that this is you, but my friend was very similar and everyone thought she was a spoiled brat that needed to grow up. Just an example, take it for what you will. No offense intended, just wanted to share my experience with someone like you.

Good luck, hope things change for you. Merry Christmas.

^^ WOW u guys just railed on her for, her dislike in christmas and not liking children, a kid is a lot of work and money, until you are willing to accept this burden (because thats what a kid is) its best for you and the child, to not have a kid. maybe she doesnt want kids, so what i know plenty of people who didnt want kids until they felt they were ready. she didnt say hey "i'm not going to have kids" she just said she doesnt like them. I dont blame her, I cant stand kids that cry all the damn time, or are just noisy. I want to have a kids one day, but right now, HELL NO. as for her christmas coments, ok she doesnt like the holidays again i dont blame her if she dis-likes her family. I'm not very "close" with my grandmother, in my 20 years of life, i have yet to talk to her for more than 20mins, just not to close with her, i would prolly dread spending christmas with just her and my family(imediate(sp?)).
you guys need to lay off just a bit, the feces comment wasn't nessary.

 

[mkiiSupraMan18]

I like Christmas....

Sure I hate the music that starts in mid October....
Sure I hate spending all my week-ends at either my, or my GF's familys.....
Sure I hate people being all fake and "cheerful"...
" " ... People getting pissed off because I call it Christmas... (real big in the hospital for some reason)...

I won't even start in on that so I don't piss anyone off. But yeah, The music is probably THE most annoying part. I mean, seriously, how much of that shit can the average man take?
