Christmas

The idea of christmas is physically revolting to me. I mean the actual idea of celebrating the birth of some dude aside. The 'holiday' if you can even call it that, is over commericalized. The idea of standing in line to pay and arm and a leg for some cheap piece of crap that could have lead and kill a person or a kid. But that is a whole other interconnected story, that I'll mostly likely get to at another time. But it is a time of year when people should be spending time with their families. Enjoying the end of the end. Relaxing. But no, we act like sheep being lead to the slaughterhouse. Ready to be slaughtered like the sheep as we stand mindlessly in line ready to shell out hundreds, maybe thousands of dollars of stupid gifts that people will smile at and saw they like, when in reality, they are shoved in the back of a closest until they can be re-gifted. Or ignored all together. I guess I could never see the point in the mindless holiday. Another change to gorge. That's a thing to celebrate. Then there is the shmoozing with relatives, that aren't really relatives, or the real relatives that you hate. Or hardly know, despite the fact you live a stone's throw away. Then there is the gift giving. You have to get something for someone. It's expected of you, even though you you're self don't get one. Because, you're all grown up and only kids get presents. So you are in line looking for the perfect gift. Paying for this gift to only make the rich liberals richer. Who then give this money to fund their friends campaigns. Theses are the people who don't believe in Christ, or god, or maybe any religion. Yet, they profit off the backs of those that vote for them. Those that they say should be helping. So Christmas, for me, this is my last year. I refuse to be one more person, putting my money into the hands of the liberals. And I refuse to give into the commercialism of this stupid holiday anyway.


So, shabbat shalom, (just to piss the people off that already hate me)
