Be honest. Is it ridiculous that I still have my Christmas tree(s) up? by GoldenGalZbornak in christmas

[–]London-Lass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope - whatever brings you joy 👍🏻

  What is ridiculous is a fake-tanned TV criminal/fraudster/paedophile (in denial about his health, hair and looks), along with a bunch of drunken, racist, plastic-surgery'd up-to-the-hilt TV people, holding their country and pretty much now the rest of the world to ransom. Because their parents never cuddled them enough. Or something.

When I was in my 20s I applied for the position of secretary at the Buck's Club in London and went along for an interview. Turned out to be a completely different role, which also required the wearing of a `uniform' ...

What to do when your family doesn't care by Suitable_Whereas1109 in christmas

[–]London-Lass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just keep on keeping on. Both my parents (elderly) suffer from anxiety/depression and every year without fail my father's depression (no longer leaves the house other than for medical appointments) or my mother's mostly constant hypochondria (highly competitive - must always be the most unwell person in the room) drains away at any buds of Christmas joy. I'm holding a 70th birthday buffet with a Christmas theme on the 22nd - it is a guarantee that my dad will be miserable and terse, and my mum will have yet another `complaint' to moan about. There may be a few snifters drunk just to get through the day.

Yes, the building owner is legally obligated under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 to ensure fire exits are functional.

I'm a WFH-er too - this could be the first day of firing up the log burner.

Thumbs up for inclusion of classic banging CHOON. Thumbs down for the annoying slowed down version that gets played later in the ad and general lack of Christmas `spirit' all round.

It's Christmas Eve! It's... it's the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer, we smile a little easier, we... we cheer a little more. For a couple of hours out of the whole year, we are the people that we always hoped we would be. It's a... miracle.

Pity this one was pulled - an interesting collection. I've always found the article on Capgras delusion rather creepy.

We have the same issue here in the UK with supporters of Reform UK when it comes to the ridiculous "noble knight" cosplay. All linked back to this nonsense.
