That's right folks! It's only 3 month until Christmas!
Some people would say that it is far to early to think about Christmas, but I'm with Jonathon Ross in thinking that we should plan ahead! What is on your Christmas lists? This is mine!

Memory stick (512Mb prolly)

Banning someone for making a thread about Christmas early? I think not.

My mum swears she saw someone with their christmas tree up already. Talking about Christmas in September is ridiculous. Though to be honest I've already told my parents I want an iPod this year. Best to warn them early 'cause they're expensive and popular.

Wow, a lot of people on here didn't have their humour injection when they were born.
Of course he shouldn't be banned for making a thread about Christmas three months early. Jeez, take it with a pinch of salt!
And Yamcha, why should I die?

i do not celebrate Christmas, but i lov the ambience of it, plus it has the best tele shows of the whole yr, which is a plus, and also uni holidays!!!!!!!!!

This is the exact reason why Christmas has just become a bullshit holiday. People making present lists already? Jeez. Christmas is meant to be about Jesus and all that & the season of goodwill. Not by adding to consumerism by making plans to force mummy and daddy to pay hundreds of pounds for your gifts.
Come back and make a proper Xmas thread around the 10th December.

Blackfox, that's exactly why I wrote that humourous anecdote. You shouldn't start thinking about Christmas in my opinion until December.

Why wait to get excited. I starting feeling Christmasy a couple of days ago, so might as well spread the joy... even if it ain't getting far!
Also yes, maybe not the most serious of threads, you might as well be jolly now! Hohoho! Shops do have their Christmas stock in already, and some idiots do have their Christmas trees up, making the Christmas atmosphere come early.
I personally do not believe in Jesus ect, but the Christmas feeling has a mind of it's own!

Each year i ask for a dinosaur and my weight in gold. What do i get? Love. Fucking love. You can't sell love. Unless...

it's a season of goodwill, i'm sure for most of us it's meaning has been removed from christianity, but there should still be a spiritual meaning. for me it's all about spending time with the people i love, fine wine and finer food :) i'm not excited yet but i love seeing everyone else excited about christmas, it's such a happy time. i'm not sure about the idea of planning christmas lists yet though, it seems a little self-indulgent.

To be honest there are some things I have thought about, but as its 3 months. No serious thought though, just stuff I want but dont want to buy myself.

There is nothing but truth in this statement. Stop this madness at once.

Haha, yeap. That's me! Nah, the items on my list change quickly. Just the thought I have, since the amount of cash I'll be gettig in between now and Christmas is pretty much 0.
My fav thing about Christmas is going outside in the snow and sledging! This year me and my friends have it all planned. We're goingin to town on Christmas Eve which is a Saturday!

I see no reason why there shouldn't be a Christmas thread Jordan. There has been a Zelda: twilight Princess thread for ages, that's not coming out for half a year! Why do peopl not let me get excited!

Because It Is September!

Thats a thing - Admins and Mods can post in any locked thread. But Jord and Piro, and alot of others are correct. This is September, its not even the end of September yet. I was actually talking to my mother the other day who said people are talking and putting up Xmas lights far, far to early. I'm not having a go Sarak but you say you don't even believe in Jesus, or anything like that - but thats exactly what Christmas is about.
People get far too bogged down in the materialistic and commerical sort of Christmas, not the one where you spent abit of time with the family - and give presents because you want too - not because you feel you have too.
So locked...and thats the end of that.
