Christmas lights

There's a house near me that puts its Christmas tree up at the start of October every year . Except they initially put Halloween stuff on it , the alter it a bit later on for the real deal !
 
It isn’t “Pathetic“ by any definition of the word but your judgemental attitude of others and on something that has no negative effect on you probably qualifies
It is pathetic Blood. Christmas is weeks away, as is bonfire night. Yet dogs/cats and other pets, are and have been, for a week or two traumatised by fireworks. It’s not pathetic on reflection actually it’s ridiculous. A nation of animal lovers, traumatising animals for weeks!
 
One thing this year has made me realise, is not to be concerned about what other people do, when it has absolutely zero impact on my life.
Presumably, those with Xmas lights already up enjoy having them up, and if they’re doing no harm to anybody else, then good on ‘em.
That’s really how I see things Johnno. People need to do what makes them feel good, and if it’s hurting nobody else then no drama from me.

I didn’t mention bonfire night. Bonfire night was not mentioned in the thread so don’t go changing the point. I was talking about someone being called “pathetic” because they have Christmas Lights up on their house already. It’s their house and I fail to see why someone would be upset about it and have to label the Homeowner “pathetic”
 
How old are you?
No doubt you'd react if someone called us Blackpoo
Thats a difficult one -I was 39 again at the last birthday but mental age can alter depending on mood and Leeds' results (smiley)

It annoys Blood so much that he lies waiting to ambush me at a moment notice. Usually its with a kettle and no biscuits (rolls eyes)
 
I visited my elderly parents yesterday - my Mum has put up a few decorations inside, because the lights make them a bit happier.

Anything that brightens lives and eases mental anguish should not be described as pathetic.
