The state of the commercialised holidays

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy............ why must the shops start their friggin holiday season thingys soooo early, tis stupid. They start doing these things earlier and earlier every year, and now its getting to the stage where they are starting to advertise for the next holiday, almost before the last one finished! Shops started doing christmas things back at the beginning of november!, and my store was selling fireworks for guy faulkes night in september, almost 2 months before that insignificant "holiday". And it keeps on getting worse. ordinary people are doing it now aswell. i keep on seeing the decorations in peoples houses going up in the middle of november, as far as im concerned the beginning of december is still too early, so that really ticks me off. I can so see myself in a couple of years time shouting "ffs its only febuary and you've started advertising for christmas!" If i were to be elected to prime minister i would make it illegal for people to even start doing christmas shopping before december, yet alone start putting up decorations.

That is all.
