How did this get on clowns? Anywho, to the actual question

How could seeing kids playing in the street and people giving out massively inflated amounts of cash to tramps depress anyone?

You're talking about people with mental disorders. Regular guys aren't going to think to themselves "Hey look, kids having a snowball fight, I'll go slash my wrists!"

[Kosh]

It could be the weather. Some people's moods are effected by it.

**** presents.

The Christmas spirit is probably the only reason why I've not yet gone on a killing spree.

an0n: Basicly, when you see all people being nice to eachother, but not to you, and you have no-one left, you can be very ****ing lonely.

Try to imagine being at a party were everyone ignores you while having a great time. That'd make you feel lonely, right?

[an0n]

No.

And at every party I've been to, no-matter how ****ty the night is going for me there's always at least 5 people worse off. Usually because they're being sick, falling through things or having sex in the bathroom with their ex-girlfriend who they hate.

You went to that party too?

Christimas isn't like that, everywhere.


Tis all comercilizededededed now. All about "gifts" and "savings" and "really lame trinket gifts that you buy from small stores set up by people who hate christimas."

Also, don't forget the "ten-times more expensive" thing. Everything seems to go up in price on christimas. Seemingly.

Ticks me off. The christimas spirit is dieing.

...and then there's the people who don't celebrate christmas because it's "un-christian" and pagan.

[Drew]

damn catholics

[Ace]

I've never met a catholic who didn't celebrate X-Mas. I'm talking about the "non-denominational" fundie folks.

...anyway back to the topic.

Jehova's witnesses, IIRC.  Stingy buggers wouldn't give sweets at Halloween, either *grumblegrumble*

[an0n]

Yeah, and I found out tonight that apparently the entire religion believes in Creationism.

I was planning to simply ignore my father as he got old and died. Having realised precisely how stupid he is, I now intend to kill him at my earliest convenience.

[Blitzerland]

Uh...isn't that a bit...over the top?

[vyper]

It's an0n, a holocaust wouldn't be over the top for him.

[Blitzerland]

Uh...is there any hope for the poor guy?

[vyper]

Perhaps if he realizes his dreams of world domination he may take pity on the people he'll exploit...

My aunt and uncle are both catholics, and they dont celebrate Christmass

[Ford Prefect]

Celebration tends to cause people to take a step back and look at things on the whole, which tends to plunge one into a quagmire of existential despair. People prone to depression will wonder why they can't experience the same joy that is flowing around them.

In short, suicide is bad, but it is best to be sympathetic.

[an0n]

And?

I don't believe in an afterlife, but I still won't walk across the graves of dead soldiers.

Seriously. On the battlefields school trip I was the only one (teachers included) who wasn't bounding across the graves.
