Christmas feels different to me this year. Is it just me? How does today feel to you?

Not really. I've been beaten over the head about Christmas as far back as September this year. So, by the time I reach the actual day of Christmas, it's like "...so what?". It's like Capitalism's favorite holiday now, along with Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I can't get that cheery or festive for a day that has been hijacked to maximize profits, especially if people are nagged about it for months on end until it's the day.
