These days, Christmas lights adorn front porches before the
Thanksgiving turkey is even in the oven. Plane tickets to
visit hardly-missed relatives cost more than the suitcase
full of presents people have to lug across the country. And
radios everywhere play songs about that fat guy in a red
suit on an endless loop. Yes, it’s official: Christmas
Sucks. This title is a humorous look at America’s
commercialization of the Christmas holiday season and the
terrible travel, inordinate amount of preparation, and
family strife that accompanies it. You can commiserate with
the fact that everyone drives themselves into debt buying
gifts, no one enjoys seeing long-lost relatives, and
everyone is creeped out by the department store Santa. With
twelve days of Christmas, there’s plenty of reasons why this
is far from the most wonderful time of the year.
