It's beginning to look a lot like...well, it's starting to look like Autumn. That's it.

they've transformed most of the condiments aisle in my local supermarket into the christmas items aisle.

don't they realise that half that stuff will be past its expiry date by the time Dec 25 rolls around?

over it already.

Merry Xmas Girlfriend! I wanted to be the first to wish you all the best in this fair season and bring you some Yuletide blessings! I will now go jump off the bridge with a Christmas wreath around my neck.

OMG. I witnessed a grown man putting up his exterior christmas decorations yesterday, he was in competition with his next door neighbor, who had already put up some stuff. Jesus himself would walk over and slap that guy, I am sure. The kids haven't even gone out to trick or treat yet, and I think the decorations will confuse them, causing mass hysteria in my 'burb. Great. and I LOVE Christmas (at the appropriate time and in the appropriate amounts).

See you sunday, miss H.

Our Target store has Christmas decorations right next to the Halloween stuff.

It ain't right.

Is it legal to start celebrating Christmas before Yom Kippur.....?

GAG is right. It's just way too early. I actually overheard a coworker, today, say that she hadn't started Christmas shopping yet, and she said it in the most panicked voice I've heard. What's up with everyone?

I was in some dept. store this past week and they were playing Christmas music. I wanted to scream at them that it was too early!

Creeping Christmas crap crumples my crotch.

My years in retail made me hate Christmas even more than the early commercials already had. Why can't they start Halloween this early? I wouldn't be offended at all to see costumes in the drugstore in August. Come on, that's more fun than the creeping Christmas crap, isn't it?

Creeping crass commercialism capitalizes on Christmas.

I just love alliteration.
