This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Halloween can start October 1.
Thanksgiving can start November 1.
Christmas can start the day after Thanksgiving.
End of discussion
And as someone from east Asia, Lunar New Year starts a month before. All these too early festivities are annoying the hell out of me.
I said end of discussion.
Lol. But for real. This is not my background, I would like the hear a non-western perspective. It's the same? Because of course it is. Right?
Same energy and rationale (on the business side), I've started to see Lunar New Year shit go up before Christmas. I hate it and it annoys me.
Costco has had Christmas stuff out since September 1st. I would like to slap whoever is doing this. I used to love Christmas! Now by the time it actually rolls around I'm sick and fucking tired of seeing all the Christmas shit everywhere for the last four fucking months. Fuck you!
Your Costco must be managed by a Filipino, I guess
I love Halloween. I start decorating in August.
But if this plan rolled out, it would hold back Christmas instead of letting it steamroll over the other holidays. I would totally support this.
Besides pumpkin shit, I tey to avoid buying anything holiday related. It's such a waste.
