I haven’t had or put up a Christmas tree since I was a child. I don’t see the point. I don’t do any seasonal decorations. Time moves so fast that it’s like a week later I’m taking down a bunch of shit I paid money for and can barely use.
I get where you are coming from, but I find holiday decorations to be one of the highlights of an otherwise crummy season.
Winter is so depressing. It is cold and dark all the time. It is fun to come home to a bunch of silly lights everywhere. I leave mine up for a few weeks past Christmas. If you ask me, the tree should stay up until the first day of spring.
We started putting our shit up almost immediately after Halloween. I don’t mind all the gaudy bullshit, just the work and storage space. I just want to put up projector lights. My wife complains that they look like someone didn’t put any effort in — I said that’s exactly why I like them. At least we were able to agree on a prelit tree with no extra ornaments. I do miss the extravagant trees my grandma put up when I was little but it’s so much breakable glass shit.
Last year I put up permanent Govee lights. They were pretty good but then we had our roof redone this fall and I noticed half of them don’t work now. C’est la vie.

Yeah, fun sucks
