Another christmas tree on a car roof decoration

AIBU if I kill an elf every time I see another decoration/cushion cover/whatever with a bloody Christmas tree on the car roof design? And a twee campervan is even worse.

Why does there always have to be a 'thing' every year that just swamps everything, what has happened to classic independent designs? I don't really care if anyone comes along claiming that it's so last year or whatever, there's still too much of them this year.

And yes, I'm spending too much time on the internet/television at the moment due to illness, so getting the full force of advertising that luckily I usually miss.

Car with a tree on top . I rather like that Grin

I am known to like tacky things at times to be honest.

I love all the tacky kitsch stuff, especially the random paperchase stuff. That's just my taste tho, I know it's not everyone's. We have a pink tree full of lovely colourful decorations and adore it 😊

I love all this kitsch stuff and have various baubles on my tree including robots, cactus, Elvis, Mr & Mrs Potatohead. I'll be looking for a unicorn and flamingo this year Smile

I really like them! But I’m like @viques - the trunk needs to be at the front of the car (unless they’re going to reverse all the way home).

Our tree always fits inside our car. How boring!
