    Seriously. I turn into the Grinch personified during these holidays.

    I haven't had a tree since i moved out of my parents, nor have i bought any gifts. To me Christmas is pure agony. If i had a TV i'd have to flip through all the Christmas crap and going shopping is pure h€ll..

    I feel like i'm the only vegetarian at an all you can eat meat-fest.

    Please respect my disrespect for Christmas. To me it's going to be a Monday/Tuesday like any others.

    Thankfully there will be chippers open.

    And the only Christmas spirit i will be feeling is the whiskey.

    I usually am.
    But not during these times when you spend all days alone.

    I see no point in putting up decorations, buy an overly expensive tree that will crap on my floor and then try and be merry about it.

    Not barking. More like venting.

    Or are we forced to feel cheerful during these times?

    You have a TV, stop making stuff up.

    If you really wanted to be left alone for disliking christmas, starting this thread was a really, really, really unusual way of going about it.

    I wanted to vent in all this crimbo malarky showed down my neck.

    A Christmas Day's party at Bing Crosby's house!


    Bell rings. Bing hobbles to the door in his blue cardigan and opens it slightly.

    With the door ajar we can just see that it's snowing outside.

    Opening the door fully a large crowd is seen standing before Bing.

    Sir Cliff Richard, Shakin' Stevens, George Michael & Andrew Ridgley, Noddy Holder & Slade, Paul MacCartney, Wizzard, Mariah Carey, Boney M, Nat King Cole and many others.


    OP wakes in a sweat while sitting on a strange 1970s style settee, "Thank God it's only a dream!" he mutters.

    Just then a thin, pale man appears before him, "I'm David Bowie, I live down the road. The party's just about to begin!"

    "Come, they told me. Pa ra pa pa pum....."

    You can get a fake Christmas tree in Tesco or Penneys for €10-15, decorations for under a tenner, Scrooge.

    Watching Christmas specials of TV shows (where the sets are decorated) is a cheap hassle free way of decorating your own home.

    So kids, if you are a grumpy liar, you might end up alone at Christmas. Be happy, it takes less effort and people like you betterer. You also get the ride more often. OP, knock off the booze, and make some friends, lifes great, sure the alternative is crap.:)

    Yes. I had a TV. A 36 inch one. Which i had to sell as i was unemployed.
    I then called uPC to cancel my tv sub.

    And then i sold my xbox aswell.

    No. Time stands still and you still have your commodore 64?

    In what way am i a liar?

    Please be the first one to explain that?

    Because i once owned a TV? That i have posted that i watch Love/hate?
    That i had an xbox?

    I call YOU a liar.
    Or do you simply love to jump the bandwagon?

    And why do i have to accept christmas?

    I LOVE the thing about Afer Hours.

    We have a sticky about "No one shuld be left alone for christmas"
    and the fact that this is the loneliest time f the year.

    But still. I don't like christmas. I am abnormal.


    Tell you what. If i jump into the liffey. You won't even know i did.

    So DON'T EVER CALL ME A LIAR!

    I DON'T OWN A TV. HOW HARD IS IT TO UNDERSTAND THAT SOME PEOPLE DON'T OWN A TV?

    Seriously. WTF is wrong with you?
    Dear Quazzie. I hope you choke on your turkey.

    Because being cool on Boards will get you laid.

    Well get lost.

    Thanks for helping out.


    This just went from a vent to a serious event.

    So f off.

    And for the mods. Lcking this thread will do a heap when i'm not even around to care about it.


    GET IT INTO YOUR SIMPLEMINDED LITTLE HEADS THAT NOT EVERYONE OWNS A TV.
    THEN THINK ABOUT YOUR WHINING ABOUT YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE. NOT EVERYONE CAN OWN A TV. HOW BLEEDING HARD IS THAT TO ACCEPT?

    YES. I'M DOING CAPS NOW, BECAUSE PEOPLE THINK THIS IS FUNNY.

    DEPLORABLE. YOU CAN R.I.P ALL YOU WANT LATER, BUT NOW IT'S FUNNY AS F.

    AND THEN YOU CAN SUCK UP ON FACEBOOK WITH ALL YOUR "OH SO SAD N ONE DID ANYTHING. I KNOW I WOULD.
