I would just like to inform my inner circle or the internet at large: IT'S NOT CHRISTMAS!!!! That's right. It's November 17, before thanksgiving, before December, before advent, therefore it's not Christmas. Why is everyone putting stuff out for Christmas? And better yet, who is buying it? Why would anyone want 6 weeks of Christmas is beyond me! I just think it makes it less special, less magical, less important, when you start getting ready right after Halloween.
In summary: It is not Christmas. Not Christmas. Not. Christmas.

I agree that it makes Christmas loose its "specialness", but there is really only so much you can do. One choice is to be a scrooge about it, the other is to just deal and let it make you happy (you know it makes you happy, you just don't want it to.)
So be happy, Ryan. Go get some egg nog, spike the shit, and drink it up. Wish yourself and your friends a Merry Thanksgiving and get drunk. Isn't that what it's all about anyway?
P.S. I'm bringing you a Santa hat. You better wear the fucker.
I don't think I'm being a scrooge. How can I be a scrooge if it's not christmas? How can you eat your pudding if you don't eat your meat? I just think that it's more special if it's not year round.
There are two traditional times that christmas is based on 1) advent (you know the whole religious basis of christmas) 2) the day after thanksgiving. Neither has arrived. We must keep to precedent. Stare decisis, y'all.
