Cheap, plasticky crap that will most likely end up in a landfill down the road.

The complaints seem to start earlier every year.

That has to be ironic, or something. It’s absolutely ridiculous.

Im curious to see if theres a cut off for this. Its honestly earlier every year.
Its 104 days until Christmas. So this shop will be selling Christmas products for about 30% of this year.

I was in The Range this morning and the staff were simultaneously blowing up a giant ghost or something for the window and putting Christmas decorations onto the shelves. They’re even building the little tunnels they put the lights in already. Wild.

Shops don’t do this for the craic, they do it because people buy the stuff.

Before Halloween should be a crime – more so considering Ireland’s Celtic background.
Guess it’s time to go in and put a few zombies in the manager just to make sure the spooky season is still observed.

Needs to be a rule that only lets you do this after Halloween.. Ugh

The war on Christmas is over. Christmas has triumphed over all comers. Halloween defeated.

The back school stuff in supermarkets is getting replaced by boxes of hero’s and roses.

Not sure if it’s part of no longer feeling influenced by the church/religion but for me, year on year, I give less and less of a fuck about Christmas. Might also be just how much it takes over for three months.
It almost feels like Christmas happens too often. Should be every four years, like the Olympics.

No joke, I’m in the US and last week was in a convenience store that had Valentine’s Day candy hearts out already.
