    Gosh Big Boy no need to read my posts then if they affect yer buzz. Do you have any cop on? Prozac was over prescribed in the late 90's for people with depression. Are you trying to make some kind of dig at me for not getting with the Cmas gig?




    I don't really understand what your problem is matey, I am unique. Nothing goin to change that. But back on topic-actually it is v.v difficult to opt out. Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about.
    It's not really that hard to opt out, you obviously didn't want to opt out fully, because it would have given you nothing to whinge about.

    'overrated' - this term is way overused. What you're really saying is that you don't enjoy it as much as the majority.

    So, have you ever tried to opt out of the biggest mass annual overwhelm?

    Nah, bet you haven't. Too busy wishing merry cmas like a good little sheep to everybody and fishing for the last green triangle out of the tin, while you bore siblings with uninteresting tales about your life?

    Actually no, I moved away from my family for work and opted to work christmas eve and christmas day, because I don't really care about the holiday, and I like money.

    But I'm not a little grinch that is going to whinge about it to everyone else that I don't like it, haven't touched a drop of drink either in the last week or two.

    And how does wishing people christmas making you a sheep?

    If other people enjoy christmas, and you have a chance to brighten there day, even a small bit, by wishing them a happy christmas, why the fúck wouldn't you?

    Yeah, greed for money isn't a sob story.

    At least I used your quote in the right place.

    Christmas is for Children mostly. Have a few youngsters around makes all the difference.
    Nice for adults to have an excuse to play a few board games, spend some quality time together to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, bit that side of it doesnt work for everyone.

    Yes OP im with u all the way..Christmas is overated. I decided this year not to exchange gifts with my family, after my dinner and watched tv with family and replied to texts I spent the remainder of the evening catching up on work. I like Christmas but the hype pre-christmas gets to me all the more this year since I have the flu...maybe thats partly why im kranky and posting on this thread! :o
