    Sorry for going a bit Noddy Holder on you there, but seems Tal has put up the BoM Christmas decorations. Doesn't it make you feel all warm and fuzzy? ;)

    It makes me feel merry. Well, that is, if I didn't have this damn sinus infection it would. But nothing makes me merry when I'm sick, so Bah, Humbug to everyone! :evil:

    Hey, at least Barmy Army is feeling happy enough for us all. ;)

    Oh, and no it doesn't. There's another 23 days to go before I make the effort.

    How does it work though? Does Tal stand back with a beer and tell dmc and BTA the lights are crooked? Is Beren the lucky one who puts out the santa smilies?

    For the love of God! It's just the second of December! Can't you at least wait until the 15th or so?

    My neighbour is even putting lights and plastic reindeer in the garden...

    Bah!

    xmas kind of makes me think about all the people who got killed in the past for not wanting to belive in jesus to be honest. Its kind of like celebrating Auswich day if the nazi`s had won WWII. I mean no offence by this whatsoever, but its kind of how I feel about the matter. Sure its all fun and cozy to get together with the family and give presents etc. But in the back of my head I still feel the celebration is abit wrong.

    Christmas isn't religious at all to me. Its just a chance to sit infront of the tv and get fat.

    Yeah, I like no school, but I don't like any holidays, including my birthday. Sure, recieving gifts is nice, but I am never surprised or super excited, at least outwards. I think I let people down when i don't jump around the room in excitement.

    Think about all the people who are killed for believing in Jesus. Christians have been killed for centuries for their beliefs, just like every other religion or cult. :rolleyes:

    Christmas time is fun, whether or not you observe the religious ceremonies that happen around this time of the year. And if you guys think I'm a grumpy old geezer, what does that make those of you who are so negative about yuletide festivities? Christmas rules.
