You can ban one thing from Christmas for everyone forever

[iCod]

What is it going to be?
Mine would be the phrase "picky bits"
you're not cute, it's shit.

Boxing day hunt

Turkey, doesn’t matter how it’s cooked, I hate it.

People that get offended when I say I don’t celebrate Christmas, I celebrate Jul (Yule)

Presents for adults

Perfume adverts. Just... what?

And it's the similarity of tone... Did the perfume manufacturers get together and decide, 'You know what sells perfume? Cheese dreams! We must all do cheese dreams!' 🤷‍♀️

And I used to love that 'It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year' song... BUT WE KNOW WHAT THEY DID! WE ALL KNOW WHAT THEY DID!!! 🤬😤😡🗯

Grinch here, but I’d ban Christmas itself.

Too much choice to just pick one….

🤣 we love picky bits, it's a household favourite. But DS(7) does call bogeys 'pickys,' so unfortunately picky bits has now been abbreviated to Pickys 🙈

Alcohol?

One of us is always ill at Christmas, this year its DS who seems to be finally getting over it and me. Thought I was over it yesterday but to day its back with a vengeance.

All sticky tape should have to, by law, go in a decent dispenser so it doesn't tear and the end get lost.

Last Christmas DH put up long trails of non-flashing soft white lights outside, draped around the porch and up a tree. He was very hurt when I described the effect as “Chav Central’.
He said he would not be putting any up this year, as his efforts were mocked, but when I was having a nice nap he got out a load of coloured lights and put them up over hedge and porch, I think they are set to ‘slow fade’ so should not be annoying anyone. Except me.

Too soon :(

You should introduce him to cockles and see how he likes them bogeys eggs

Hmm, I'm sure I remember the 'classic' lyrics as flowing much more poetically than that

😀😂😀

Are soft white the same as warm white?

But the very next day, he put them away and replaced them with slow-fade coloureds... 🎶

Mind you, ...'draped around the porch and up a tree' sounds like a squirrel hung them... 😄🐿 Tie them on and let him go! 🎄

Nothing to be mentioned about Christmas until Christmas Eve!

Cranberry sauce. Vile and it pops up in everything.

When they replace your old stand-by foods for Christmas fripperies:

Got any wensleydale? No, only cave cheese with pine needles and fur bits... Chicken breasts? No, but plenty of the sriracha twelve-quail skewers left...
Prawn cocktail crisps? Sorry - would 'pencil shaving flavour' Pringles do you?

🤣🤮

Was your Jewish friend really being sniffy or was she just telling you blue lights are popular in Jewish households this time of year because it's for Hanukkah? Why is this funny? I don't get it.
