Coca Cola has owned the legal rights to Christmas for years now, just like Nestle and Cadbury own Easter, making this discussion void. You should thank them that christmas is even around at all in this growing atheist world.

I don't even feel Christmas anymore unless "The Christmas Story" is broadcast on television, which it hasn't been here for the last 7 years.

Re: Christmas: The debate

I like the part about Christmas where we come home after the Christmas Eve service, furiously wrap the presents we got each other before dad gets home (usually around 11 or midnight) and then when he gets home we're like, "zOMG, Dad wanna open presents early?" and he's liek, "YEAH!!" so we get our PJ's on & Dad reads the Christmas story, (we try not to fall asleep), then everyone opens their presents, lololololol. Good times. Also the kitties like to help ;) for some reason they ALWAYS like to come and sit on our laps. It's hard to open presents without knocking them in the head, though :(

Yes, I know. I was making fun of Eddy for calling it "The Christmas Story" like the ignorant Britloaf he is.

Good ol' Ceej...always one LoL ahead of the rest of the gang! ;)

Also, I have a Christmas debate: wrapped presents vs. gift bags :|

No, Money > All

I hate it when I get a gift card to some shitty store.

Well, at least a gift card is some sort of pretended care. It's saying "at least I'm trying to know what you want for christmas... like, the general theme... or... what's your name again?" which to some is helluva load better than "here's fifty bucks, GTFO.".

Of course you're right about money being better though. :)

Not going to celebrate it, never did.

It's all about Kwanzaa

Re: Christmas: The debate

No no, you missed my point, I'm asking about whether or not gift bags are the same as actually wrapping a present someone's going to be able to tear into. Gift cards don't count - I still wrap those in bags or whatever.

See, I HATE wrapping Christmas presents. I suck at it. So once the whole gift bag fad started catching on, I was like AWESOME! All's you gotta do is throw the gift in, put some tissue paper on top, and you're done!

But some people I know HATE gift bags. They even resent them! They think they're another one of those commercial things that's just simply RUINED Christmas. And I'll admit, I enjoy tearing into the paper to get to my gift - a whole lot more than I enjoy pulling some tissue paper off the top of it.

So...yeah, that's what I meant.

Also, ooozmin, were you ever visited by Kwanzaa Clause? ;)
