14. They started selling Christmas stuff alongside the Halloween stuff this year

in stores in town, at the beginning of October. I've been talking about the War on Halloween for years now, and it is getting worse, but nobody seems to notice that holiday getting the shaft.

I'm all Christmased out. I don't put a tree up or any of that stuff. I will buy sensible gifts for family members that actually celebrate the holiday, really, only 3 people, and that's it. Otherwise, it's just another day.
