Haven't seen any shops doing Christmas decorations yet, but I'm keeping and eye out and will get mad when it happens. |

They aren't Christmas trees yet, but I've noticed a lot of pines trees - Just trying to stay on top of this.

Saw someone getting a gift wrapped. Seems a little early for a Christmas present, a little too well prepared and thoughtful for my tastes. Could be a very late birthday present, though, possibly someone who forgot about a birthday and is scrambling to make up for it, let's hope.

Not sure whether Die Hard is really a Christmas movie or not, as such, but it is has been available since May on Viaplay-on-demand.

worried about wrapping paper. it's the eternal question, how long do you wait to lay in a supply of high-quality wrap? yes availability becomes much better as the holidays approach and the factories start churning out product, but the good stuff gets snapped up quickly and you're left with a choice of cheap but tissue-paper thin wrap with terrible colors and offputting designs, or the ultra high quality stuff that virtually nobody ever gets because it costs more than the drat gifts.

It's 400 BC and somehow it's Christmas already. Gets a year earlier every year. |

I learned a thing or two from studying my enemy - preparation is key. I've set a google alert and when it's activated, my screed against early christmas will be automatically posted. I'll receive a text alert that it's time to be furious.

pretty soon, Christmas and Halloween are going to be the same holiday, and everyone will ignore Thanksgiving, because at that point, what is there to be thankful for?

Just spotted an older gentleman with a white beard. He wasn't wearing red, and didn't have rosy cheeks, but I warned him to trim it before it caused concern or confusion with the upcoming holiday.

He wasn't wearing red, and didn't have rosy cheeks, but I warned him to trim it before it caused concern or confusion with the upcoming holiday. you know why there are so many older guys with white beards who are also fatty? it goes back to the Cold War, when American military strategists determined that there needed to be a strategic Santa Claus reserve force, to keep the spirit of Christmas alive in America once The Big One happened. The necessity of this was justified by the argument that keeping the spirit of Christmas alive would aid in the rebuilding in a capitalist economy out of whatever resources could be scraped from the nuke-blasted ashpile of the Earth. To ensure a ready reserve pool of potential candidates, the Pentagon slipped an engineered hormone (SC-X) into the American food supply. It was designed to accumulate in the body fat and gradually build up its presence, until reaching a critical activation point and promoting rapid fat gain and white follicle growth stimulus. It was found that the taste of SC-X best mixed with (and thus was mostly inserted into) foods with flavors that computer nerds love. Oh yeah, SC-X also causes an intense interest in rainbow suspenders and arcane UNIX operating system variants. Anyhow, if you see anyone approaching you and asking you questions about SCO or System V or COBOL, turn around and quickly walk away. They're recruiters for the Santa Claus reserve branch of the US military. And brother, that is one nest of nightmares you don't want anything to do with. ---------------- |

Guy from Jehovah's Witnesses: did u realize, that Christma- Me, starting early/mid October to around December 22rd: YES! YES! Guy from jehovah's Witnesses: oh..ah,its you, well..b-bye! Me, starting early/mid October to around December 22rd: For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same. As one dies so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no advantage for man over beast, for all is vanity.

I just made someone a Christmas hamper and don’t even regret it. I may do once all the fresh produce in it goes mouldy by Christmas but right now I’m buzzing. |

Earlier today when I finished paying for my things at Target the lady behind me placed her items on the belt and said “Just doing some Christmas shopping”. I had to try very hard to not turn around and start freaking the hell out about how early Christmas starts |

October 23, 2117 Clouds of black ash swirl in the air. Twelve eldritch reindeer swoop through the sky, their shrieks matched in hideousness only by the cackles of their crimson leader. A feel people shudder, gasp, and fall over dead from the sound. Those of us who remain exchange terrified glances. The question on all of our minds is whether or not this winter will be the one that finally does in humanity. We want to be hopeful, but Christmas, it seems, comes earlier and earlier each year...
