Family politics, 'duty' and 'obligation'

Obscene excess, and the way we're all ripped off with prices that are slashed from Boxing Day

The expectation you should feel/behave a certain way because of a specific date on the calendar

Crappy Christmas music in shops, pubs, restaurants etc.

Writing cards

Putting up the sodding tree

What I hate about Christmas is being without my family.

It would have been my daughters birthday on the 7th, my mother's on the 17th.

By a twist of fate, my "spare" mother passed away on the 17th (this week).

Christmas holds no cheer for me.

I hate being a glorified servant. I'm a carer and do everything for my parents. They quite merrily invite all their single friends and family around so they're not on their own for Christmas. Nobody ever asks if i mind catering for everyone. I have to spend the whole festive period cooking and cleaning up after them all and nobody even so much as says "thanks, that was a lovely meal". Just for once i would like for them to not take me for granted and actually appreciate my hard work.

I would quite happily work every day over the Christmas period instead. At least that way i would be paid and my boss would say thanks

Christmas? Let me count the ways:

* Xmas ads are shite. They are not seasonal jollities - they just sell shite.

* Adverts tell you to over-consume and then come the inevitable ads for Weight Watchers in the New Year.

* Xmas jumpers - should be banned along with the pricks who wear them.

* The panic buying - because the shops are shut for a day&half. WTF?

* Getting and the disposing of Xmas pressies that you don't like.

* Xmas music - rubbish

* Xmas films - yawn.

* Office parties.

* Systematised lying to children.

That it's on the wrong day...21st December is the end of the descent into ever more darkness, or the 22nd is 1 second more daylight than the 21st so the rebirth of light and hope, but the 25th? nothing of importance happens, except chaos.

I do like some of it though, the dead calm of boxing day, after the tempest of the 25th, the closed shops for an hour or 3 it's not all bad

-the enforced jollity, as if there's something wrong with you because society says so.

-the crappy decorations and decorations everywhere making my sensory problems even worse.

-anything to do with Xmas and the workplace - secret Santa, Xmas jumpers, senior managers being down with the kids by reindeer antlers etc

I nearly always work those. There's no bugger else in so no one phones or emails, I can wear slippers in the office and munch on leftover chocolates, and get about a fortnight's work done in 2 days. It's like work without the people, so much better

Why do you think you always get a little packet of screwdrivers in the Christmas crackers..

And a sewing kit, that's to do diy sutures on yourself cos you slipped with the tiny little fucker and stuck the screwdriver through your finger..

And the nail clippers are perfect to remove the stitches a few days later..

No stress no drama

Food toys relaxing

Avoiding the stressed people doing their shopping

Having a thick skin when out in public

And ignoring rude people

I ignore it as much as possible really. I really can't stand how early it starts - completely spoils it. I remember my Mum being shocked that someone in our street had put their decorations up on Dec 1st. Really not the done thing - those were the days!

I'm one of those weird people who actually enjoys January and its emptiness. I've made it a month to quietly get on with and enjoy things "for me".

That's usually just as simple as walks on the beaches of West Wales, but they're cherishable.

"I ignore it as much as possible really. I really can't stand how early it starts - completely spoils it. I remember my Mum being shocked that someone in our street had put their decorations up on Dec 1st. Really not the done thing - those were the days!

I'm one of those weird people who actually enjoys January and its emptiness. I've made it a month to quietly get on with and enjoy things "for me".

That's usually just as simple as walks on the beaches of West Wales, but they're cherishable.

Well said.

I love Christmas but I don't like the comedown and going back to work and feeling I've nothing to look forward to, I really hate January.

I've always said I'll book a holiday in January but I never do

"Christmas? Let me count the ways:

* Xmas ads are shite. They are not seasonal jollities - they just sell shite.

* Adverts tell you to over-consume and then come the inevitable ads for Weight Watchers in the New Year.

* Xmas jumpers - should be banned along with the pricks who wear them.

* The panic buying - because the shops are shut for a day&half. WTF?

* Getting and the disposing of Xmas pressies that you don't like.

* Xmas music - rubbish

* Xmas films - yawn.

* Office parties.

* Systematised lying to children."

What about Christmas pudding and mince pies Joe?
