You can probably tell by now that I love Christmas. I love the music and the food and getting together with family and the tree and the lights and Christmas specials on TV and getting presents and giving presents and the whole thing.

But I’m not a monomaniac about it.

I can hear opposing viewpoints. Lots of people don’t care for Christmas, or don’t observe it in the first place, and that’s cool. And there’s no reason not to have a sense of humour about this stuff.

So raise your glasses of diet cream soda in honour of Eric Idle and his excellent song, “Fuck Christmas” (listed alphabetically on the linked page).
