Christmas fan

I'm not a big Christmas fan but I will be posting my Christmas Guitar. If my guitar could talk like all of us, not thru my fingers, she would probably ask me to take the hat off, mainly because it is ugly looking and shapes the head into a cone which I'm sure you would find very unattractive. Not only is Christmas unattractive but also meaningless the way we are celebrating Christmas nowadays, a justification to only acquire unnecessary material things in pursue of happiness. It involves increased economic activity and a significant key sales period for many retailers and businesses worldwide.
Being a music lover, I personally think Christmas music is crap.
I kind of miss the way Christmas time felt when I was a kid. I once loved Christmas because of the food, the lights, the socializing, the religious importance my family seem to display and of course the gifts. However, Christmas has become nothing but this monster and in my opinion Christmas programming reinforces commercialism.

Here are some of the other reasons why I'm not a big fan of Christmas
The cultivation of Christmas trees, reduces the use of arable land
Writing and mailing cards to people you ignore the rest of the year

Gift exchange and forced giving which pumps up consumption
Christmas destroys the environment and promotes animals killing
Christmas promotes absenteeism at work and reduces labor productivity
December is a peak month for robberies
Christmas is one of the most important contributors to obesity and drinking
