Christmas is a time that leaves nobody alone. You can be an asshole all year long, but at christmas time you have to be nice and cool and gentle with everybody. You HAVE to even if you don't want to. It's a time that does not accept honesty, except if you honestly think it's best to just go with the flow to avoid fights with family and friends. Ah, and of course the presents. A berserking outrage of socks, agendas for the next year that most of us don't use, clothes, toys, dinners out videogames and all sorts of shitty cheesy christmas cards that have even sound systems in-built, playing the old "fa-la-la-la" and "silent nights" and all. Since i'm talking about tunes: Christmas choirs! That heinous flamboyant little singing-crappy-tunes-for-charity groups of people without imagination to create fucking new tunes. Ah, and of course, if you're a busker in christmas, you're screwed. Even if you manage to find yourself a spot available and free from the echoing harassment of the christmas choirs, every now and then somebody will ask you to play a christmas tune. And Wonderwall. Year after year, a celebration of consumerism, hypocrisy, and christian lies. Did i ever mention that although we celebrate in christmas the "birthday" of a guy whose words are mostly misinterpreted or overlooked for our own convenience, and whose death is excuse to our own little mean and selfish day-to-day attitudes, this day isn't even a true christian date? How come nobody ever considered, if we count the calendar from Jesus' birthday, why do we celebrate it at the end of the year? Because it's a lie you morons! Christmas is a "pagan" celebration inherited by christianity to convert other cultures. Where do you think santa claus came from? I never heard of him in the bible! Or the bunny! Or the elves and reindeers. Wait! Did i mention "elves"? Oh wow shit is getting serious now! You want me to believe that once a year a guy travels all over the world in ONE night, gives presents to all good kids, have milk and cookies, and all of it apart from the fact he breaks into houses through chimneys? And he's got elf-slaves to produce the toys? I thought they were all made in china! So Santa is a big judgemental ass-hole, enslaving about a billion Chinese people to make toys to the rich kids. Because wait, i never heard of poor kids getting visits from him. Are you gonna tell me he's a bleeding democrat too? You know I'd be a lot happier by this time of the year if instead of compulsorily getting together for a phony celebration ONCE a year, we all were honestly nice and cool and considering to other beings all year long, and just because. Not because somebody is gonna judge upon your deeds to give you a piece of plastic as a little trophy for being a "well behaving law abiding no-trouble maker". And by the way, Happy Winter's Solstice and may Spring announce a shiny and intense and colourful Summer and may the Fall propitiate the renewal of your own life for next Winter, witch is a good time to save your energies and re-balance your life. In fact, a Happy Whole Life, to all of us, and may we have plenty of opportunities to sit around the table, TV off, Internet off, and contemplate how wonderful all our friends and family are every day.
