[Kymux]

It used to be you got an advent calander like this:

And that was it.. None of this Spierman/Bratz crap..

Why has Christmas got so damn shoddy, its all about the presents.

Can nobody come and carol sing? Can noboy make mince pies? Just take a think for a second that it is actually called CHRISTmas. Even if you don't believe in Jesus/God etc at least know what our celebrating.

Please guys, Save Christmas.

I love my Spongebob advent calander though :( I've been carol singing before :8 and my mummy makes homemade mince pies :p and I don't know why people who arn't Catholic celebrate Christmas in the first place and Easter, because they obviously do not believe in Christ so it kind of defeats the point..

[alexxxxx]

Yah please. I am christian, so we don't overdo it. x]

[dirrty]

i have a postman pat calandar

[Kymux]

Do you get what I mean though?

For instance the Argos adverts:

'Is your Christmas wish to make your son the happyest boy?'
and
'Is your Christmas wish to bring music to someone's ears?'

NO ARGOS, IT'S NOT. IT'S TO CELEBRATE THE BIRTH OF J-E-S-U-S

[Stitch]

I help my mum make mince pies =] and i'm gunna make some in school =D
But i've got a Doctor Who advent calender

[fetish]

[brandon]

doesn't bother me tbh. I, for one will be getting a chocolate advent calendar.

[exploit]

[myke]

Yesh Dan, I agree :) Not presents, JESUS. I actually wonder how many people actually say thanks to the present giver or who actually sits at the Xmas tree and thinks about Jesus, I do. Call me whatever uoi like ;]

Take your own advice then, your celibrateing the pagan midwinter festival, it just had jesus tacked on the end a few 1000 years ago, the bulk of the celibration has nothing to do with him or christanty "/
plus carol singers are annoying and i dont like mince pies

ps. Advent calenders suck, the choclate in em always tastes discusting, i just buy proper choclate insted "/

Chocolate is better than half a piece of crap behind a power rangers door every day :)

[Neversoft]

eh? I love christmas, i just dont class it as christmas time till december, and i prefer real choc to advernt calender crap.
I also celibrate christmas for what it really is, as opposed to the jesus addition "/

Friends, family, exchangeing gifts, nice food, its all good.

Plus, shops obviosly focus on the gifts, becuse they can make money by selling them, friends and family on the other hand, is classed as huamn trafficing so there not allowed.

It wasn't aimed at you. :)

I agree, in another post I think it was "is christmas overated now?" I said it was exactly that; too commercialised.

[womanizer]

i dont have 1 :(

[Twinkie]

I don't think we even have those here..

[Neversoft]

It's December 1st, kids. Eat your chocolate!

[Hurts]

I have 2 calander's :) Cadbury one which has Santa on it lol and a 29p from Lidl, which has the nativity seen on it. You have to have a little religion at christmas lol. To me it doesnt seem like christmas untill the coca cola advert comes on [link in my sig] but this year they have changed it :'(.

[Frank459]

[velvet]

I don't really care to be honest. I'm not religious, I just like the presents & atmosphere.

[Kymux]

Romance is selfish lol. I kid I kid!

@Zatley

I LOVE THAT AD! When the trucks and trains go past and the coke appears in the snow! And all the lights go on. 'Holidays are coming, holidays are coming. lalalala always the real thing. * ting ting ting *'
