OF A FEATHER

There is one thing i know now that i have always suspected about myself. I hate Christmas most of all. out of all the holidays this one can suck the most out of all of them.  think about it. it began as a lie, a harmless one sure, tricking you kids about a make believe fat Judger who sold out to Coca Cola in the 1930s and who will bestow gifts ONLY if you were good. and whats good all about anyway? and who sets the standard? you see how many jerks are in places of high authority with hella stuff piled up around them? just about all of them, and look how many gifts they get and free roast beast? sheesh. Then, when you find out its all a sham you gotta put on a good sham face and sham some more un suspecting kids to bribe them not to piss you off for like a month after Thanksgiving? sure, there are all the happy fun times too but its still built on a foundation of bribery and lies. you know, the only families who have great times at Holidays like this are families who get along all year long. but the worst part is the Holiday TV specials. what loads of reindeer crap. and the soul crushing Holiday Music in every store everywhere?  they aught to offer free Russian roulette at the checkout. its maddens the mind and body i tells ya. i might be risking a FEMA camp by saying all this stuff but the truth must be heard. Xmas can suck a dick. and i can only say this because i am an American with a healthy dose of self entitlement with the God given right to act Indignant whenever i choose Just like the good lord intended. And when i open the 31st day of Christmas Chocolate advent calendar thing i will eat that stale baby chocolate Jesus i find behind the flap and give thanks that i still have the freedom to hate shitty stuff and have the ability to express it. thank you baby Jesus. you taste terrible but you are all we got. (we also have eggnog.)
