You are 'Christmas Time is Here, by Golly!', by Tom
Lehrer. Hmm, you really don't like Christmas,
do you? From the moment they start playing
carols in the shops in October to the
appearance of the first Easter Eggs in the
shops on New Years Eve, the rampant hypocrisy
of the Christmas spirit sets your teeth on
edge. You know just how many family fights
start over Christmas dinner, how many people
are injured in the Boxing Day sales, and how
few people actually find Christmas even
remotely merry. You liked Scrooge far better
before those ghosts got to him, and you are
only doing this quiz because you are bored at
work and anything is better than listening to
everyone else discuss their Christmas shopping.
Still, it is two days off work, which does
count for something... Enjoy the break.

What Christmas Carol are you?
brought to you by Quizilla

It's not so much that I hate Christmas, I actually realy enjoy getting together with my family and friends and playing games and eating lots of nice foods. My family don't do 'reunions' so christmas is the one time of year when we make the most effort to see eachother all at once.

Yeah it does bug me that I hear Christmas carols in shops from the 1st of November. But mostly I just kinda let it get on with it's self. Mostly I thinjk it's that I don't really like the songs that much, but the fact that they are repeated so much and I end up learning them is teh poo.

I never really got the fuss people make, and the amount of stress people seem to bring on themeselves trying to make Christmas go 'just so'. Next year I am prolly going away with some friends, but taling to some of them recently they are scared of hurting their parent's feelings. Surley if you want to spend Christmas the way you feel you will get the most from, your parents should respect that?

Way I see it, if we didnt have Christmas to celebrate, with all it's expectations and conventions to follow, then there'd be summit else that'd get people together; give them reason to stress and all that. So Let it get on with it's self. I kind alike the feeling that it's a special time, I think.

And a reason to buy things for people, and recieve. Not outta obligation, more outta finding summit that you know the receiver will appreciate, really like/enjoy/find useful. But then I guess that's because I stoped doing that when I'd see summit cool and buy it a firend. -I seem to wait for Christmas or birthdays to do that.
