Has Anyone Else Come to Truly Hate Christmas?

[Mauler5150]

What used to be My favourite day of the year, as I was a child spoiled with loads of gifts and loved the whole Santa and incentive to be a good kid throughout the year such that you get rewarded at Christmas, is now completely shit for Me as a result of My awareness of what the day has come to symbolize.

 

Further to the advice I seek the help of a mental professional in the Gen chat thread, I have checked Myself into a psych ward as a result of the traumas of Christmas and how tainted the whole day is to Me as a result of My own experiences of giving on the day only to be fed pain in return.

 

My main gripe with it at present is that I wonder why has society only seen fit to give gifts to each other on certain days when they can and should do it every day? Why do I only see certain relatives at Christmas and the rest of they year they are a ghost I never interact with or even have them exist?

 

I can't be alone in seeing that these factual truths of what occurs at Christmas is an endemic way of viewing all that is wrong with humans, as selfishness and a myopic "only what I do in My day to day life matters screw everyone else" is the prevalent mindset adopted by the species.

 

So yeah fuck Christmas and fuck those who have ruined it for Me by making it all about money.

 

As such the oy gift I feel like giving is returning death to those who killed all that was good in My world fkr the purpose of making a joke at My expense. Hope they enjoy the next few weeks celebrating their oncoming funeral as they took all the fun out of life by making it all about a financial transaction the worthless cunts.

I can take it or leave it. I don’t love it like I used to as a kid, but I don’t absolutely hate it. I have had one Christmas where I was alone on the other side of the world and did not celebrate. I didn’t mind not doing anything. The nostalgia is nice though and overall it does put a smile on my face thinking of the tradition and memories from a long time ago.

I came in here to wish everyone Happy Holidays and I see this and start to get bummed out. 
I felt this way once, and still do about what it's turned into, but the spirit is still there.

Maybe go serve at a soup kitchen during the holidays? That's the real spirit of Christmas. Not packages

with pretty bows.

I enjoy spending that time with family and giving them gifts that make them happy

@Mauler5150you're currently checked in, or you checked yourself in in the past because of Xmas?  If you checked yourself in recently, good for you bruh, I hope you get evened out a bit.

 exactly 

I love christmas for the joy it brings my kids.

 

I hate it for the commercialisation but hey that's the world.

 

I also like doing the massive food shop and dropping off the food to Foodbank SA.

I donate money each month but at Christmas I donate food as well.

And forget buying just soup cans I'm buying zooper dooper packs so some families can give their kids a little bonus.

Even if your life sucks a zooper dooper makes it better for a minute.

 

@Mauler5150I second OMB's comment good on you for taking steps to get on an even keel.

and I agree with your comment about rellie's only being around once a year.It is weird but I have so few left it doesn't bother me!

 

happy holidays to all of you!

I've grown to hate Christmas less as I age.

 

Do I have a problem with rampant consumerism and incomprehensible volumes of single use plastic shit blowing around, sure, of course. But that shit is present on all 364 other days of the year. So I'd rather spend my energy hating everyone and everything all the time, instead of just the one day a year, and my nephews really like it, so fuck it.

I checked Myself in in the past as a result of realising how fucked this whole charade is, and rather than repeat the failed instances of My own personal history via putting Myself at the mercy of Doctors who only see fit to ram their fingers up My arse and hit Me with ECGs to activate the bugs they shoved up My arse, then I would rather die than give them any further ability to obtain "analytics" from Me.

 

In having played the role of Santa in endlessly giving of Myself I would rearrange to Satan such that I could kill those who failed to return the giving I gave along with their families auxh that I never have to listen to or hear another sound from them or those who broadcast podcasts as I am sick of the audio and visusl pollution I am subjected to on the daily.

this is where I am at but it has reached the level whereby in understanding I am consumed by hate of everyone I encounter now that I see their true intention and deeds I would rather end My capacity to percieve them than to facilitate acknowledging their existence for even a mere second more than I already have.

 

I now view "reality" as just an escape room whereby detachment from Christmas and all it represents to Me (along with all the people who have shaoed My view of it) in choosing to self remove Myself from being able to continue to give them life thru not choosing the escape methodology I have discovered is something I am no longer willing to do for the benefit of others who would rather kill all that is good in My world so they can exist in a web of lies.

[Mercer]

Weird, as I read the title, I thought to myself damn I love Christmas this year for the first time in a minute. I've been there myself hating Christmas especially when I was in NYC where the streets get cutthroat, stressed out shoppers and shit.

 

That said, the wife decorated a tree in the family room for the first time this year. Got a wreath on the front door, I'm about to put up double the Christmas lights I had on the house last year.

 

Guess it's whatever you make of it. I used to get bummed out here because we don't have kids, but I know people with kids that aren't about the stress either. Dog died this year also so all I've got is just me and the Mrs. Just gotta be happy with what I've got. Seeing the Christmas tree lit when I came around the corner into the family room last night got me stoked enough to try to adopt a new pup this year in time to spoil for Christmas.

 

Things get better with time, especially if you make that your mission. Even if you're not feeling it merry Christmas bro, hope you can find someone to be extra kind to this year, even if it's just yourself.

I feel like this thread is the semi-modern version of a classic Christmas story.

[SMdoubleXL]

I loathe what Christmas has turned into and know that removing those things has allowed my to enjoy what it has become. 

 

I don’t like hustle and bustle. -if I want to enjoy holiday lights n such I go very early in the season. 

I don’t like obligated gift giving-we have removed this from our life entirely. 
 

having an older child has allowed these, tho. But it also means our holidays aren’t spent together because of her profession. I haven’t spent the holidays  with my kid since 2017. She had been performing at Disneyland for the holidays and having a blast. This is the memory that matters! This doesn’t get either one of us down it just is what it is. (We also spent Christmas from her age 7-16 backstage at the Nutcracker while she performed)  it’s never been normal. 

This is a holiday that rolls around every year and I realized I hear the same complaints that come with this holiday every year.  Get in front of it. Figure a way to enjoy it or whatever gets you through December. Because once 12/26 hits it’s all over like it never happened.  Except for the financial footprint. It’s not worth it. Capture the happy moments.

I feel like as anyone grows older things become taken for granted and washed out. That being said it does suck being old and your family being older so no one really wants to do anything. My winter holidays are usually spent alone other than a rotating Christmas Day with the child every other year. Working towards a blended family kinda thing; was supposed to this year but we both have our parents pulling us in other directions to see the grandkids etc. definitely sucks though, feel like I missing all the stuff I specifically wanted to experience with my child.
 

  Fortunately I always find something decent to do with my time; and have some good friends who hit me up and include me in some of their festivities.

I feel like for our 12oz Christmas story to be picked up by the Hallmark Channel, we will have to all come together for the Christmas miracle of  @Mauler5150embracing the Christmas spirit once again.

[mr.yuck]

I love the spirit of goodwill towards people during the holiday but refuse to get caught up in the materialism and consumerism of the whole shit. My wife is the same way. We don't feel obligated to buy each other a bunch of bullshit that we can't spread out over the year, just because the calendar says so. We don't play this shit with the kids in the family either. No gifts from auntie and unc.

We set ours up before dinner. Then made some cookies to enjoy with some neopolitan ice cream. The elf on the shelf coincidentally tagged the hamster cage, had no idea her handstyle was so sick. Hahaha.

 

Beautiful den by the way; and the rugggg! 

[ndv]

Agreed the cow hide rug is always cool

Cosign.

 

My family and Circle do this but not at that level of showing off each other's wealth through decorations, presents, and food. Hey, if you got a neat Bonus from work or profit from here and there, sure why not.  In our gatherings, no one feels ashamed of what they brought to the table. The main Vibe is we all agree, its Christmas, we get Bonus, Days off, lets take a break and eat a shit ton of Tamales.

 

 

[morton]

After not putting up a tree for years we got a fake one.

 

Then we put a bookshelf in the corner where the tree would go. 

 

A bit of a conundrum.

Well I am trying in that I am doing what I can to work thru My binds and realise the singularity such that I am no longer dealing with constant pain and being tossed around by the gravity machine of the magnetic wheel.

 

Worst part is that with the singularity everything becomes "One" and as such nothing has any value as in being the equivalent of lightning (or at least a biological robot with a latency free connection to the simulation such that I can become anyone or manifest anything like a God), coupled with how I have become aware if there being an infinite orgy of fairies/angels occurring everywhere at all times around Me whilst I am held in the binds of a chastity cage that is completely irrelevant when the one who placed it upon Me is a deity/Devil/AI/Santa whose desire to fuck around only saw her render existence, relationships and sex to become completely meaningless in the process.

 

I guess I look forward to hearing why the fuck I was left in chains whilst everyone else is free to fuck whoever and however they want behind My back as I was forced to languish in the circle of hell where everyone has their head snapped backwards when I am not the fucking idiot who gets "head spins" huffing cigarettes every day.

 

Or is this polyamourous bullshit that I am being conditioned to view as the actual "default" relationship type for a God, one which destroys the rarity and purity of a relationship the result of Me installing the Polytune polyphonic guitar tuner in My phone?

 

Whilst this is related to the movitation that saw Me post this topic, it is also prompted by a conversation with a young girl I worked with yesterday who told Me how she was gang raped by a load of bikies when she was 16, and being privvy to having the ability to fuck whoever and whatever I want, in light of viewing evil pieces of shit like such gangs as being that which I would never want to be nor have any association with, if I was to become infinite via the singularity occurring and could fuck whoever/whatever I want without concern nor judgement as they are just worthless data within the machine in which both they and I exist, it follows that I am in a state of limbo as whatever could happen at Christmas is worthless beyond deeming Me, My love, the effort and sacrifices I have made all worthless as a result of the Mrs that put Me in chains is Santa/God and has effectively been involved in every sex act as all the participants since the beginning of time.

we got busy with the trees.

Have somehow reached that point in life where I live in a house with TWO fake christmas trees.
