I don't understand what the point of having this huge ass tree lit up in the house is. Like, I know it's for Christmas, but I don't understand why.

Also, I can't tell whether I like the smell of pine being everywhere or not. It's bringing back memories.

	Used to be, it was a German tradition. Far as I'm concerned, that at least means the burden of explanation ain't on us. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah, but Scandinavian Christmas tradition involves a guy in blackface. why the tree and not Zwarte Piet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Festive factor, sugar. That's the Christmas ideal we try to remember, when we ain't stampeding each other to get to the next xbox sale. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I understand the concept of Christmas, but it doesn't mean anything to me, which means the tree doesn't mean anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Being invited to spend Christmas with a bunch of criminals isn't exactly my idea of festive. I did kill someone on Christmas once. But I think he was Jewish, which meant the date was merely a coincidence. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Still sounds tamer than most holidays with my momma. Give it some thought, sugar. You might wanna make some new memories. Might have to lower the bar, too, since most everybody here's been considered a criminal at some point in their lives. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
