Advantages: Days off work

Disadvantages: Boring

Christmas as an annual celebration of peace and happiness - sound like a great idea. but now here is my top ten list of things that definitely kill Christmas:

10) Overkill of Christmas decoration and music in the supermarket.

9) Christmas tree vendors in funny red coats pretending to be Santa.

8) Plastic Christmas trees, with electric candles.

7) Everybody getting stressed about getting everything finished by the 24th.

6) Christmas parties where serious discussions are taboo and everybody gets drunk.

5) People pretending to be nice to each other, forced happiness: "Look, it's Christmas, so let's forget all our arguments and be happy!"

4) Superficial charity: open shelters for the homeless on Christmas Eve - and close them again on the 27th.

3) Killing children's creativity by giving them too expensive presents even though they have too many toys anyway.

2) Families coming together for the holidays athough they are not interested in each other, boring each other to death until somebody goes crazy. Then go to point 5.

1) Reserve all peaceful thoughts for Christmas, be ruthless, aggressive and arrogant the rest of the year.

Have a nice Christmas
