Do you celebrate Christmas?

Yes! Christmas is the time for me ~ since there will be a present to exchange and party with friends or family ... its the most best time ever Ù©(๑òωó๑)Û¶

Christmas is my favorite holiday.

Do I have to be a terrible person?

I've been forced to watch the same Christmas specials, shown on tv, 4 times a day, for an entire month, since I was 3, till I was 21... I perfectly memorized them by the time I was 9, and only took me the same year it was shown to memorize the newer ones...

They drove me crazy, because nothing besides Christmas special were ever shown... Shows with 50+ episodes dealings with a bunch of other subject matters, ignored for the same episode over and over... It was torture... I had no choice... All I had was only the TV for most of those years.

At some point, around 16-17, I started to see the contradiction between the "season of giving and compassion, of cherishing your fellow man and giving thanks" versus...

...the perverse consumerism that is completely against what I was brainwashed into believing through those incessant cartoons...

I really don't know how to interpret it with anything other than scorn or disgust. This time of the year only ever entails this (the videos) to me.

Free presents and some spending money.

That's what it is to me, not like those lucky anime protagonists who always have someone to spend it with. (or Hentai protagonists who get loving Xmas Vanilla sex)

I love christmas time because of the weather, songs, food, X-Mas cartoons, and most of all how my town looks at night with all the diferent colored lights

Yeah i celebrate but like i answered, meh. I've lost all joy of the holiday and its not as "magical" anymore.

I used to love Christmas, until I realized I was Jewish

Eh. Christmas is not very special to my family. :/

Ahh christmas. The day I always give my step dad the yellow snow cone.

~ahh, good times, gooood times.

haha! i love how everyone has a santa hat!

Yes, but it's not really important for me.
It's just another party with family/friend, nothing special.

I have to celebrate with my dad's family,but I don't like them. I wish I could hang with my friends during Christmas.

Nope.

I don't want to exchange money for things that don't actually mean much.

free food and presents, what's not to love??

I don't celebrate Christmas, but the break is nice.
What's with the hat?

I want a christmas hat too

"I don't believe in Santa Claus and I hate holiday cheer and I'm a terrible person"

If I wasn't forced to "celebrate" it with my family, I wouldn't.
I don't care about the gift, haven't asked for anything nor I have given anything to anyone, for at least 10 years now. (I'm 24).
I hate the taste of turkey and they refuse to buy/let me buy chicken instead, even if just for me, I don't like most of the holiday type foods either, I hate crowds and especially smokes from all the smokers during the "party". Also, all those annoying drunks I wish I could just throw in front of a car...

Yes, I'm the Grinch of Christmas, sue me. To me it's just another day in the year, another day closer to my ultimate death, nothing worth celebrating.

The spirit of the holidays has left me with age. Hell, I'll still watch the Polar Express though. Great movie.

When I was a kid I loved getting presents. Now as an adult I perhaps enjoy more picking and giving them to my family.

The only thing wrong with christmas now is that I've started working so now everyone wants gifts from me now that I have money
