For me I personally like Christmas just because of the mood/feeling; I know, a gay statement, but like poster above me mentions, this is a gay webmaster forum.
This!
I love Christmas. I don't have a single present under the tree for me, but I've had a great time picking out just the right thing for family members and my two little men. We leave cookies out for Santa and I'll need to buy some giant carrots for the reindeer. I also love Christmas because I'm a dork and like singing Christmas carols. You can't really enjoy that as much in June or March, you know?
Plus, as a teacher, the holidays translate to two weeks off without the sweltering summer heat, so I'm always up for that!
Even tho my family doesn't celebrate xmas, i dont think it's that bad. It's a good excuse to get the whole family together and share a few laughs. it's one of those holidays where practically no one is working (except us ;-) ) so there's no excuse like " I need those time and a half hours".
I've been to a few of my buddy's christmas get-togethers, and it was def a blast. Tho I was like 7 at the time.
I do however share the same views as some other posters about gift giving tho... shit requires too much thinking that I'd rather use for making $$

Im not here to change your mind. Im just saying, it is a really nice time of year compared to any other. What I do not like is that people take it for granted to be good at only this time of the year that pisses me off. The rest of the year they are normal retards. I agree that religion has its cons but we are not asking you to celebrate the birth of Christ. There are tons of people who dont give two cents for religion but they sure brighten up with holiday cheer. Hypocritical? Maybe! But it sure serves its purpose.
Did y'all know in 350 AD, Pope Julius I declared that Christ’s birth would be celebrated on December 25. He was trying to make it as painless as possible for pagan Romans (who remained a majority at that time) to convert to Christianity. My 2nd question is, why should we listen to a Pope?
since i live with my parents, and i'm way past getting presents from them, it's kind of pointless. but everybody is so unfocused during this time of the year, that it goes one an opportunity to catch up and/or beat them.
I'm fine with christmas until I turn on the TV.
I'm so fucking tired of hearing christmas songs repurposed as corporate jingles, all these piece of shit made for TV movies that pander to idiots, and worst of all I'm tired of Christians going way out of their way to be offended.
I also hate trying to come up with something to buy for my Dad....
