No.

Too soon.

Bah humbug.

Not before Thanksgiving, even.

That would be my preference too. Also my wife’s.

I’d settle for at least waiting until after Halloween but October 1 should be a capital crime.

Damnit. I forgot. Now that means I’m down a radio station that I like.

That was the rule in my house: no Christmas decorations until after American Thanksgiving (otherwise meaningless to us if it wasn’t my birthday).

Too soon. I dont plan on Christmas stuff and shopping until after Halloween.

The day after Thanksgiving. We’ve even gone out on Black Friday. But not before.

That’s your birthday? Cool. And also funny considering.

Here too. We always have at least one station that goes all Christmas music before Thanksgiving! Pathetic.

Well, some years it is. I was born on it, at the very least.

Now I know why we call it turkey day.

My wife just told me today that her mom finished all her Christmas shopping yesterday. Granted she does all her shopping online, but I still thought that was crazy.

Well, at least her holidays will be low pressure, but to me, all the fun of shopping comes with doing it during the season.

Yeah, she does all her shopping early because it’s not really festive to shop online no matter when you do it.

Plus, the presents after they’re wrapped are featured as part of her holiday decorations. Each person gets gifts wrapped in a paper/ribbon combo that’s unique to them, and she arranges them in the shape of a Christmas tree in a goat cart in her living room.

Yep, I’m a nut for Christmas decorations and even I think it’s a bit excessive. Lol
