Christmas Is Dead

Christmas is dead. The new year is here and we are not ready for it. Tax returns will be on their way soon, so we can thank the government for blessing us with the gift of our own money. In turn, we repay them, literally, by spending taxed income on taxed goods and services and trinkets to put under the tree eleven months from now. Keep your eyes on the ball! The glittery, expensive ones that look chintzy in the brown and gray haze of January one. Christmas is dead. Choked to death on its own red and green vomit and the perpetual smog that hovers over every major city.

I hope Taylor and Travis had a fun evening last night.

Christmas is dead. 

And it's all Taylor Swift's fault.
