This one is going to be quick...
Know what makes me angry? The fact that Christmas stuff goes up before Halloween is over. I hate the fact that retailers try to get a jump on the holiday shopping season every year. And every year not only does the crap fill the shelves but the horrible horrible Christmas music fills my ears earlier and earlier every year.
But, I can't be mad at retailers. The economy sucks, people are buying less things in stores because there are better deals online so they try to get people to buy as much as they can as early as they can. No, my anger rests squarely on the people who start shopping for Christmas stuff all the way in October. If these people could realize that the deals are going to stay the same the whole season they wouldn't start shopping until mid November like all the normal people. And, the retailers would realize they could hold off till a normal time to put up the decorations and the items that will only be bought during the holiday season and wait to put on the bad music so there is a much shorter time we have to deal with the synthetic merryment.
