And throw it under a truck? They've put it up today in their garden, it's getting earlier and earlier every year. I bloody love Christmas but ffs it's far too early, will be sick of the flashing fucking lights by December!

Go for itGrin

I love Christmas too but it's only the middle of SeptemberShock way too early!

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 17/09/2014 20:51

Take it, break it and post it back piece by sodding piece.

It's still 14 fucking weeks away.

WEEBITHILLANDGLEN · 17/09/2014 20:52

My deepest sympathies. I love Christmas, but this is way too early.

SauvignonBlanche · 17/09/2014 20:53

Oh God, no! YANBU at all.

Could you get some sort of (legal) gun and use it for target practice? Aren't there air guns or something that would work?

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 17/09/2014 20:59

Its people like that who give weight to the argument that every one should have one free slap per month.

Alliwantisaroomsomewhere · 17/09/2014 21:01

Grin Talizorah!

YABU, I'm eating mince pies already. I LOVE Christmas!

BookABooSue · 17/09/2014 21:03

Could you steal it and leave a note from Santa's elves saying they had to borrow it? Then get MNers from around the country to send cards from the elves as the tree makes its way back to your neighbours?

[Disclaimer - the excitement of the Scottish referendum may have made me delirious!]

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 17/09/2014 21:04

I know several people who I'd use a free slap on.

r2d2ismyidealman · 17/09/2014 21:05

Yabu. Other people's happiness is a good thing.

SquirrelWearingATrilby · 17/09/2014 21:20

Can't be doing Christmas yet, I've not yet had my summer holiday!

Finola1step · 17/09/2014 21:22

But where I am down South, it's all hazy sunshine and short sleeves (with a cardi just in case). It's too bloody warm to think about Christmas.

I love christmas YANBU.

What the hells a countdown to christmas tree ?

CheeseToastie123 · 17/09/2014 21:33

Fuck me, that sounds awful. Not from a festive family myself, and a much loved relative died on Christmas eve making it a difficult time emotionally. Every year the Christmas stuff starts earlier, meaning my Mum gets reminded of losing her own Mum for longer and longer. Yuck.

LokiBear · 17/09/2014 21:41

YANBU. I say that as someone who has done most of my Christmas shopping. Plan, squirrel presents away, make Christmas cake and prepare your booze. But, do not put decorations up in September! Madness!

BlackeyedSusan · 17/09/2014 21:47

99 days... (well as close as I could do the maths with ds whining about it being ages away) it is going to be alooong 99 days.

Beansprout30 · 17/09/2014 21:51

Misstiredbuthappy it's some illuminated xmas tree which has a clock type thing flashing how many days till xmas and it's hanging up in their front garden!!

Same on fb with the stupid how many sleeps to go etc, it just ruins the excitement for when it's actually time to get excited!!
