I can't be the only one!

  1. I like a good Christmas banger, my go to is Ghost Of Christmas – Manic Street Preachers

    ‘Sleep through the Queen’s Speech – cos it means nothing to me’.

  2. I hate winter. I don’t mind when it’s possible to go away and do something cool, like skiing or hiking in the mountains but when you work in an office in the city, it sucks balls. It’s dark when you get up, sit in an office all day, finish work and it’s dark.

    As an atheist, I’m absolutely fine with celebrating the halfway point through this nonsense. Especially considering that winter used to be genuinely deadly for the human populace. We can always be thankful that we have a roof over our head and something warm to eat.

    You can totally celebrate that. If you believe that it symbolises a Palestinian baby born in the spring about 2000 years ago, so you can get a PS5, go ahead, that’s your thing too.

  3. Have I been an atheist nearly all my life? Yes.

    Will I sing along to Hark the Herald Angels Sing? Abso – fucking- lutely

  4. Who the fuck says “boy child”?

    Why didn’t they just say “son”?

  5. Humans have long celebrated the winter solstice with myths centred around the dying and rebirth of the “sun” alongside rituals involving evergreen vegetation, candles, feasting and gift giving and new life. Christmas brings all of these traditions together, which is why it has lasted so long and continues to appeal to people all over the world.
