1. Just don't celebrate.
You will not only save money but innocent trees too.

5. I've never celebrated and I'm content...
I might do shopping on black friday & look for candies on sale after christmas but I've NEVER participated its too much of a headache for nothing, it just breaks my heart to read about the suicides leading up to christmas.

4. Or,
just be Jewish.

Jesus was.

Guess what Catholic Holy Day of Obligation is called the Feast of the Circumcision?

January 1.

And if you can make sense out of Catholics commemorating a Jewish rite, I'll consider converting to Jain.

24. That reminds me of the Phyllis Diller joke.
Her husband Fang went out into the back yard, fired his shotgun into the air, and told the kids Santa committed suicide.

Pretty dark, but funny.

25. My son would insist is was just the "mall Santa."
He totally knows there's no Santa Claus, and he's been playing us, this year.

26. my son and I had the "dad and I are Santa" conversation this
year, and he handled it pretty well ( I couldn't think fast enough to stonewall effectively), but he's hedging his bets by e-mailing his list anyway. ;)
