Do you frown upon people who don't put even a single decoration up for the holidays?

1 Answer

Answer :

I don’t decorate. It’s not because I don’t want to celebrate a particular holiday; it’s because I don’t believe that celebration and spending lots of money on crap made in China to put on my walls are the same thing. We do have a small ********* tree. My wife and I are never home at *********, so we don’t feel the need to put up decorations for the neighbors. And I would never decorate for any other holiday, it’s just not my style.
