Synthoid Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Oh yes. I hate that... it's way too early for anything Christmas. It ruins it for me to start early. By the time the day actually arrives, we don't want to hear any Christmas music. When an eel hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a Moray.

Dave Bryce Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I put our lights up 11/1 specifically because I think it's funny how The Christmas Season starts the moment Hallowe'en ends because not much marketing $ in Turkey Day. dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tusker Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I got my B&H Photo catalog in the mail today. Sweetwater's catalog can't be far behind. So may it secretly begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmonizer Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I have family in Minnesota. They have an excuse to put up the exterior Christmas lights before Thanksgiving, because it is difficult to put up lights if snow is already present. Otherwise I'm not getting it.

LennyTunes Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Any yard decorations and light are fine Oct-Dec. But after New Year's, our HOA police is ready to send nasty letters if they are still up! Lenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy cutting my front yard grass with an old fashioned lawnmower. Then my 2 cats munch on the grass clippings. Our HOA does not allow sun bathing in the street or napping in the drainage gutter.

Lindaru Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Ever notice that this is also the time that everything in the store is pumpkin flavored? Pumpkin doughnuts, pumpkin doughnut holes, pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin coffee creamer . . . I say "punkin' chunk it all". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S_Gould Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I have never eaten/drunk anything "pumpkin spice" flavored. Even candles and soap that are scented with it make me gag. Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving (in public spaces & retail locations) are an abomination. Ditto for Christmas music. Do the merchants & corporations really think that it makes people spend any more, or shop any earlier? I'm no humbug - tasteful and heartfelt displays of Christmas spirit are a welcome respite from the venial nature that pervades so much of the rest of the year. But the tacky, overblown, secular and downright silly extravaganza that has become the norm only serves to dilute and trivialize the true holiday. I'm not even coming from the "Put Christ back in Christmas" zealotry (yeah, and let's put Satan back in Halloween while we're at it...), rather from a traditional (& perhaps nostalgic) point of view. Let's put the dignity back, if nothing else. (P.S. - This has nothing to do with the subtle & tasteful decoration of K.C.; I just suddenly found myself up on this high horse...

mate stubb Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I went to Hy-Vee at 3:00 Monday afternoon to buy candy. There were helicopter moms and kids trick or treating. Inside the store. I had 3 trick or treaters that night. Halloween has been killed already by all the churches and businesses offering "safe" alternatives.

Joe Muscara Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 This is a story about a Halloween party that's held every year in my subdivision. Tina and Shellye, the owners of the house, are good friends of ours (and everyone's, really). This year they set a new record of over 1700 trick-or-treaters. That's not a typo. http://abc13.com/society/a-look-inside-houstons-hottest-halloween-block-party/1582862/ "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!

RABid Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Went to the Dollar General two weeks ago to buy Q-Tips. Could not find them. Between Halloween and Christmas items there was no room to display the occasional necessities that draw me to the store. As for Halloween, I usually have 300+ during the first hour, then run out of candy and turn out the lights. This post edited for speling.
