To be honest, i'd be happier if we didn't celebrate it at all in our house... i'm an atheist and i've always felt slightly hypocritical but i can't get away with just locking myself in my "office" mainly because it doesn't have a door.SirClive wrote:Nice sentiment, but I love the commerciality of Christmas.

I am a Pagan. I celebrate Yule. Christmas is just the commercial aspect of the holiday. Nothing to do with religion at all, regardless of the origin of the name.TMR wrote:To be honest, i'd be happier if we didn't celebrate it at all in our house... i'm an atheist and i've always felt slightly hypocritical but i can't get away with just locking myself in my "office" mainly because it doesn't have a door.SirClive wrote:Nice sentiment, but I love the commerciality of Christmas.

Probably go and see Dad at the cemetery. Then back home for dinner, TV and a few drinks. I tend to stay off the computer on Christmas day.Darran@Retro Gamer wrote:Slightly different this month in so much that it's not game related.
Basically what are you planning to do Christmas Day?

I dunno if that's supposed to wind me up or offend me (I'm not on both counts) or if you're joking. Seems like a dumb thing to say to be honest.Antiriad2097 wrote:Your Dad isn't a grave robber is he?DanDare wrote:Do they?
