YANBU for not wanting to hear it but others are not being unreasonable for wanting to talk about it if they want to.

Merry Cunting Christmas, to you and yours GladAllOver.

Covering both bases there.

There's always one but not usually that early

GladAllOver · 09/10/2018 18:35

That's because I've been hearing it so early! :)

I was thinking it was a very different C word!

My neighbours have two little trees on their front step and yesterday they put fairy lights all round them. I always feel November is too early, but October??

glenthebattleostrich · 09/10/2018 19:04

It's October, people start planning.

We have to have the conversation now to ensure we get a reasonable hotel cheaper. And we have a bloody massive family so need to spread the cost and find out what they'd like.

MakeAHouseAHome · 09/10/2018 19:15

I start thinking about Christmas now because I like to plan. Nothing wrong with that!

RomanyRoots · 09/10/2018 19:18

Why don't you like the word, it's what winters are for, surely.
You don't have to get involved, it's not compulsory.

😂 @ShatnersBassoon you outclassed my intended cunting Christmas pun 👍😂

JaneJeffer · 09/10/2018 20:17

I thought you meant that horrible c word that rhymes with piss. Quite frankly I'd rather be called a cunt!

lynmilne65 · 10/10/2018 08:57

Thankfully I have more wit and imagination

GladAllOver · 11/10/2018 10:25

You don't have to get involved, it's not compulsory.
Unfortunately it's not possible to avoid it when every shop you go into has gaudy Chinese made plastic tat hanging everywhere, and the same jangling electronic tunes are repeated endlessly.
Bah Humbug!

I really really hate the whinging that goes on every year about how it's too early. It's mid October, I could understand complaining if it were August.
