Nothing! I’ve successfully ignored Xmas my entire adult life
May I suggest having a Christmas with your friends, whatever way you like it?
This year I spent Christmas with one friend, and we just did whatever made us happy. We watched a few movies, and smoked some weed. She decorated the tree, I cooked my favorite meal. No gifts or anything, no yelling, just a good time. Probably the best Christmas I had in years.
Spend your time with the people you love and cherish. Christmas doesn't necessarily need to be about family or gifts.
Downvotes are from people who like to be unhappy. I absolutely agree with your sentiment!
Best "holiday"s are the ones just chilling with friends, even if it is remote. Play some video games, go out for a walk, or maybe cook something you haven't made in a while.
I more or less stopped doing gifts for people. Might get the kiddos something kind of useful or educational. I would rather do an activity than spend money on useless crap.
my favorite new years eve was probably the one in 2020/2021 because all my friends were online to play video games, we even held a tournament in golf with your friends haha
right on.
Ditto! No tree, no lights, no presents, no big dinners or parties. Just a few days off, which my husband and I spent with our two cats.
