Pre-Xmas gripe thread

[Baroque Brass]

My wife’s “Christmas clutter”. She decorates extensively beginning thanksgiving weekend and seems she never gets through. But it makes her happy so I try to not complain. I’m already ready to toss the tree in the woods and see all that stuff put away until next year. Just call me Scrooge.

When I was a kid, my neighbors father threw away the whole tree, decorations, lights and all. He was kind of crazy.

Little Debbie only makes Christmas tree cakes for Christmas. I can eat them all year long

Our Publix had them in the 6 pack version this year. I bought all they had. They are a staple at deer camp this time of year.

Remember how Jonathon/Sultan of Slime loved Little Debbie cakes?

Just went to Kroger.
Why in the name of everything alcoholic do they stock the shelves during peak shopping hours? Pallets and dollies in the middle of the aisles and you always go past a stocker with a plumbers crack stocking the bottom shelf.

STOCK THE FREAKIN SHELVES AT NIGHT!!!!!!
Don't get me started on self check-out.

Vent your gripe here before Christmas and get it out of your system.

because they can't get anybody to work at night. heck their glad just to find someone who will work in the daytime !

We eat her oatmeal cookies the rest of the year at deer camp. They are one of the three major food groups. I forgot what the other two are.

People thinking they are more important, lack of respect too many like this.

Kroger did not put 4X fuel points gift cards on this Friday.... before Christmas.

Haven't looked at a kroger add or been in one since they sent me an email about their pride/rainbow inspired recipes. Don't want to know what kind of recipes they had. Anything that comes to mind would get me banded.

Little Debbie is one heck of a baker, So is Mrs Edwards, bought 2 last week.

As for my Christmas gripe, I hate the commercialism of Christmas.
Heard a reporter state that people are in the Christmas spirit, talking about how crowded the stores are and how much people are spending. That is not the Christmas spirit.

I used both in the OP so I'm covered.
You can retract your claws.

I still think there should be a discount if you use self checkout

 

[crackerdave]

The cat fisherman?

Yes.
