    A disturbing amount of people put up Christmas trees on November 1st, I think the December region has been invading all the other months.

      I want my childhood rules from the 70s back in play.

      Christmas decorations go up the day after Thanksgiving, go down on New Year’s Day.

      Christmas ain’t special if you got 3 months of it. 3 months is a season, not a holiday.

        It’s the holiday season for a reason, and the only holiday being celebrated isn’t just christmas as well.

          Sure feels like Christmas is the only holiday we are allowed to care about. Every store sells Christmas decorations, restaurants have Christmas flavours, the radio stations are plagued with Christmas songs, ads are all Christmas themed, etc.

          As an American Jew, I can tell you from 46 years of experience that the only holiday being celebrated is Christmas. Anything else is just throwing a tiny bone towards whoever doesn’t celebrate it.
