Christmas is a sucky time of year, and this is why:
a) everybody freaks out. They drive like fools, they get in my way at registers, they're rude and evil and nasty.
b) people, like my brother, ask for
ridiculously expensive things, because people buy themselves the stuff
they want, normally. So it's like this every year: his Christmas
list is like two things that both cost seven hundred bucks or
more. Unbelievable.
c) people don't like what you buy for them, and you don't really have the money to spend.
d) every stupid store you head into
has stupid christmas carols that super suck for like five weeks.
I don't want to hear it, especially not all the awful overplayed ones.
e) it's cold,
and it snows a whole bunch, and just when you think you're about to
have a white Christmas, all the snow melts just in time for Christmas
Eve.
f) there are lots of expectations that
I don't want to deal with: how you're supposed to be extra happy for
the holidays, how you're supposed to sit down with the family for xmas
dinner, how you're supposed to go to church even though you don't
believe, all that crap.
