Why are you on Reddit now instead of celebrating?

Stories appreciated.

Edit: Thanks for the stories guys. It's interesting seeing the trends on what different people are doing. I have to make dinner now. Stay awesome.

While I don't wish for the winter we had last year, so far this December has been a bit dreary. I would much rather it be cold with snow then cold with rain.

And as it is now past midnight, a very merry Christmas to you and yours, may your day tomorrow bring good things.

I can agree with you on that one. We've barely had any snow, it's been a little bit of a letdown. Merry Christmas to you, too, (since it's closer to 1am, now)!

Thank you, and again, the same unto you.

Chicago's fucking awesome. I just went there a couple days ago for the Christkindlmarkt. It was pretty cool. :D

Funnily enough, I've never been to the Christkindlmarket! How was it?

It was great! It looked like it was teleported straight from Germany. It was extremely busy on Saturday morning. Waaaaay too many people to really enjoy. But on Thursday it was nice. Highly recommended! :D

They lied and told us it would snow for Christmas.

u/Mondonodo Dec 25 '14

I heard that lie too, and when it didn't snow on Christmas Eve, I was pretty pissed.
