christmas is crap ! Everyone is running around like a bunch of loonatics . It took me two hours to get a dvd . ( I guess thats my stupidity for assuming that wal mart would have more than two cashiers working at the same time . I truly believe that people are only into chrstmas and the holidays because they it's the one time they can fake it , and act like they really give a shit about anything by giving people gifts and helping the homeless and needy people . This holiday is a load of crap , society has turned it into the biggest scam . Why is it that homeless people need more help now than they did a couple weeks ago ? They were homeless before and most likely are gonna be homeless after the fact . None the less the radio is laden with the " almost " commercials . Their great with their " almost giving doesn't count " , NO SHIT ! Is the majority of the public that dense ? How about " we almost had these commercials before the holidays , but they probably wouldn't have the same impact " . The media attempts to make us believe that in this time of year it is very hard for people to get by , and we should help each other . Thats great , what an idea . Let me give money to someone who needs it to buy their kid a nintendo wii . ( thats not a joke , their is an ad on craigs list for a woman who needs money to get one for her beloved son who just can't live without it ) WTF ! That idea would be great if people didn't try to take advantage of it . Here is my help to the world , instead of buying your kids the most expensive video games and eletronics buy them a bike , or a basket ball , or something that won't put you debt for years to come and will gets your kids out of the house and active . We have enough over weight people as it is . Besides who are you trying to impress ? Your children will love you regardless and their friends probably have the same toy their asking for . When I was a kid we did this thing called sharing , I don't know if this is still practiced by youth today . I think alot of peple try to show their love to others by showering them with gifts . The more expensive the better , until those credit card statements come in . Hah . To each his own I guess , but for me I'll keep it simple . Happy holidays .
