Am I really a Grinch?

Haboob · 12-05-2013, 12:19 PM

...for not wanting to put up exterior Christmas decorations?

Such as lights.

I don't think the two have any correlation whatsoever. haha.

Then again, when I am presented with the job of decorating the house for xmas the conversation and thoughts go a bit like this…

Then I think to myself and wonder…

Chuck33079 · 12-05-2013, 01:18 PM

I don't decorate for holidays.

My welcome mat also says "leave".

Haboob · 12-05-2013, 01:35 PM

That's what I thought. Lights != Christmas spirit.

But I've asked a couple of people and regardless of whatever else I'm doing (gift exchanges, driving to look at xmas lights, taking some people to Glendale Glitters (xmas light show)) I'm still a grinch?

Tell them some horrible story about losing a family member in a tragic Christmas light related electrocution as a young child and them glare at them like they're the *******.

kenchan · 12-05-2013, 02:07 PM

So it's your Winter Solstice tree? Gotta have some greenery in the house so things will grow in spring, right?

Make a really sleazy pass at her. The Jehovah's Witless chick that bothered me one day left very quickly after I told her I would listen, but only if she sat on my face while she talked. No Watchtowers since.

Hey, I didn't go to their house and make fun of them. They came to me. If they've got a problem they're more than welcome to GTFO of my property.
