I swear to god!!! It's not even thanksgiving yet and people are pulling for me to buy a freaking christmas tree!!! I go into borders today (That small room that is tecnically part of the store but isn't really) and I see two small fake trees (you can tell, cuz they were purple and pink) With a sign advertising their new peppermint mocha drink. They were also selling stuffed reindeer that look more like moose with lights on their antlers.

Did someone else notice this. . . bypass of thanksgiving? Am I going crazy? Did someone invent a time machine already that messed up the space-time continum so that there isn't a thanksgiving?

I NEED ANSWERS PEOPLE!!!!

(P.S. The Media didn't nessicarily bypass thanksgiving, the department stores did. So technically the question is: "Did anyone else notice that the department stores bypassed thanksgiving?")

    I want it all to stop too, but I want it to stop so that I can enjoy my christmas vacation. I suppose you can't have your cake and eat it too.

    As I have gotten older i have learned to tune out a lot of the static, That people want to call the sound of christmas, And the main on is the salvation army christmas bells

    Thats interesting. I haven't seen the salvation army out yet. Maybe it's just the department stores.

    Why?

    Some businesses feel that this may run customers away

    I saw them this morning on the news, they're running a call center. I guess that that way, when they run viewers away they can just say that normal people don't watch the news.

    I watch my local news till the weather part has been done, And I'm one of those who could care less about the sports

    Yeah, I used to live in a place where baseball was the most talked about sport, then I moved and now it's football. All those hours listening to my older brother explain the rules and the countless questions asking, "Whose winning? Who do we like?" all of them, useless now.

    By the time Halloween has arrived they're already advertising for Christmas. Seriously? Let me enjoy the holidays as they come! As soon as Halloween's over, fine. Advertise for Thanksgiving NOT Christmas. Hold off on Christmas until Thanksgiving is over! I'm so annoyed by it! I don't give a damn about Rudolph right now, I'm looking forwards to eating turkey and mashed potatoes until I explode!

    What I hate about it is that it seemed like no one noticed. I walk into a borders and I see someone buying a moose/reindeer-stuffed animal. I just wanted to slap them upside the back of the head.

    When I saw the pink and purple christmas trees in borders, I wanted to start a petition, or a glenn beck washington D.C. rally or something.
