Bahumbug!

This particular post is not in accordance to, or support of someone disliking, or trying to ruin Christmas. In fact, I absolutely support the holidays in all of its bloodsucki-ness. Now, like all of you, I am fully aware of how people like to say how Christmas is a holiday in which the retail business have a ball and throw guilt and good deals at people, but I actually don't care. You see, I feel as if that lends Christmas some of its charm. It lets all the adults of the family act like they are intelligent and know what they're talking about, because they actually think that they do. What I especially love about Christmas is the cheesiness of it all. Isn't that what Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Solstice, well, maybe not Solstice, is all about? We use these holidays as excuses to leave work, school, etc., and basically have a huge gathering of people who we share the same genes. I guess I just don't see why people have to put a downer on something that we all loved when we were kids, and now that we're adults, we have to be adult about it. And when we have to be adult about something, we default in to looking down upon everything that made us happy when we were younger, because when we were young we were stupid.

Screw that. Give me one example of when you were a kid acting stupid, that you didn't have fun.
Being a kid is awesome! That's what I love about holiday's. You get to bring out your inner child.
So @#$% you Scrooges!
