New Years': Not such a big deal?

Anybody else out there think that New Years' isn't such a big deal like I do? All my friends and family treat today as an important day, but I don't share their opinion. Sure, it's a good excuse to go out and party, but to me another year passing is more or less insignificant.

You have my vote, i had such a hard time sleeping yesterday with some crackhead screaming his/her lungs off every five seconds.

I hate the fact people treat it as a big deal. It means stores aren't open and I've got nowhere to go.

Well sometimes people can be annoying but hey,
It's a new start for things that got fucked up last year. Some people might've just fucked up too much

I'm sorry to hear that and I hope things take a turn for the better! :)

Meh, it's more for the traditional festivities. Denying people their happiness during such traditions is petty. It may not be a big deal to you guys, but at worse just ignore it if you don't like it. Again, no point in denying what little happiness people can get.

I wasn't trying to deny it in any way- I wholeheartedly approve of people pursuing their personal happiness- I was just looking for others who share my view. Nothing more, nothing less.

The only reason New Year's is a big deal to me is because it means I have to worry about finding people passed out on my front lawn.

Yeah, I don't see it as such a big deal either. On the upside, it was less annoying then I feared.

It's not an important holiday for most people, but there is a symbolic meaning to it, the end of a year, and the rise of anew. Yadda yadda yadda.
To me it's just a test of my willpower. Wake up before the sunrises on December 31st, then not go to sleep till the sun sets on January 1st, drinking the whole time.
Current Alcohol consumption starting at 6:30am on Dec 31st to this point:
1 fifth Jim Bean
1 fifth Fireball Whiskey
2 bottles Gato Negro
1 bottle Korbel
30 Bottles of 400 Pound Monkey
5 Brandy Alexander's
6 Screwdrivers
and I still have another 13-14 hours left

And you can still type in correct English? My god. That's amazing.

Meh, the way I look at it nothing has changed but one little number when you write the date, but an excuse to party is an excuse to party.

Some people use it as an excuse to start fresh by setting New Years Resolutions but you don't need to wait until the start of a new year to start/set goals or change your ways.

Um... Isn't it impossible to have a "happy new year"?
Since a person can't actually be happy for a whole year. :\

I don't call it New Year's, I call it "Just-like-any-other-day", so when someone wishes me Happy New Year, I say "Happy Just-like-any-other-day"

It's not that I can type English correctly trust me. If it wasn't for a spell check system, it would be very horrid.

What bothers me is that New Years day isn't really celebrated all that much, but New Years Eve, I mean how many people are out January 1st partying?
That being said, for me New Years day is a time to celebrate, cause I've got plenty of money in my pocket from New Years eve, bless drunk people and their generous tips!

As life goes on, every holiday becomes another excuse to get hammered.
Birthday: Get hammered. Think about anything besides getting old.
Halloween: Dress up. Get hammered. Dress down.
Thanksgiving: Sit across from her parents, who are across from your parents. "Cope."
Christmas: See Thanksgiving, add morning mass, shake.
New year's is different in that my city skips the works, and just has a fire-festival.
