False, I don't waste my time even putting up a stupid tree. I haven't put one up in over 20 years and I probably never will. :-)
by ♥AngelHeart♥ on October 6th, 2009
False. I have a beautiful 6 foot tall fiber optic Christmas tree. I love it especially after I have put all of my heart shaped Christmas ornaments on it. On Christmas day, I am usually not home as I am at our family Christmas gathering. So I get to enjoy the beauty of my nieces Christmas tree too. Any Christmas tree is pretty but it is not the only way to celebrate Christmas. I think some people forget the reason for the season. No, I'm not a bible thumper. :-)

False...But my kids do.
by Seanzie is smiling again on October 5th, 2009
No. I never even got candy once in my stockings. Just little nicknacks
by dea_ex_machina on January 4th, 2010
it does not have to be a dead tree - you can get a living one - then replant it outside afterwards.
As for eating candy out of your stockings -well, yes, that bit does happen in some families,... although it has been years since I ate anything out of my stockings - I am too old :(
by popcorn on December 11th, 2009
true. but i despise real trees & wouldnt get one if i had a choice.
by Diogo on November 22nd, 2009
Not me, but a lot of people (I have already done this in my childhood, though)
by Anon on November 22nd, 2009
False.
by Sheriff Raff -Answerhag on November 22nd, 2009
I don't observe Christmas, never did.
by Sand Cat on November 22nd, 2009
Sort of true. The tree isn't dead, it's fake. And I usually save the candy.
by Nightrider on November 11th, 2009
False. I do nothing at Christmas.
by Thriftymaid on November 11th, 2009

We have an artificial tree and we share everything. We don't put candy/sweets into stockings, they are usually in boxes or tins that have been wrapped in paper.
by liamo1howstheawlfella on November 11th, 2009
its true
by my2cents--Vote for Paul on November 11th, 2009
False. I sit in front of a artifical tree and eat candy out of my childrens stockings.
by Jacques on October 7th, 2009
True, and also eat a stuffed bird of a type that probably never graced the sands of the Middle East.
by - MojoThunder - on October 7th, 2009
false ... i sit a nice comfy recliner and save the yumyums for later
by BigDaddyBS on October 7th, 2009
False... I haven't had a "dead" tree in quite some time. Artificial tree, but not a dead one. (Too messy!)
by tempus on October 7th, 2009
False. I hate to see a dead tree so I bought an artificial one. +5

False. Who the hell does that?
by Larry on October 6th, 2009
False - When you put it that way, it sounds like a sad holiday. That is if you don't believe in the birth of Christ -
by Tigger on October 6th, 2009
false
and to be honest ive never heard of doing that
unless you count sitting in my front room by my dying xmas tree eating choc
by Sir yhvhash on October 6th, 2009
False. I'm def a Christian, but I personally find Xmas and Easter to be offensive. It's not popular I realize, but I wouldn't be caught dead with a decorated tree in my house. +4
by jostafine on October 6th, 2009
False!
by RosieGHM Jetpacker on October 6th, 2009
False. We don't have a live tree or stockings! We use lots of lights and we have one of those small trees with fiberoptics which is quite beautiful. We also have a huge stuffed jaunty snowman and a large "Father Christmas" which we put in our living room! :)
by bazza on October 6th, 2009
No. Hers.
by LeopardGecko - ACS on October 5th, 2009
True, but that's a very negative view about it!
by Daisygirl on October 5th, 2009
Tru-ish falsy... We sit in front of a 2 foot fake tree and eat candy out of a wal-mart sack. We usually don't have presents on Christmas either, my hubs gets excited shortly after the 1st and has worn us out by the 18th on asking us 50 times a day if we wanna open them. *Sigh* For 35 he's such a kid at heart lol
by Sunny_Gal on October 5th, 2009

False.
by Tom on October 5th, 2009
We now use a live tree and then plant it out front when we're done with it. And I gave up candy - I eat deviled eggs and ham rollups from a paper plate. Egg nog is still a must have!
by PrairieWind on October 5th, 2009
Seems like it happens every year.
by Sharona Life is a Tale Told by an Idiot on October 5th, 2009
I have done that but it has never been the sum total of any Christmas of mine. The worst one was in a drunk tank. LOL. In Ft. Lauderdale. I was hung over and they kept shooting me up with this high dosage of valium that was making me suicidal. After that, life is real good.
by Green Goddess on October 5th, 2009
True.
by Squirrel Face on October 5th, 2009
False. I don't like candy.
by therapist on October 5th, 2009

True...I suck on those old candy canes too LOL
by Ray Del Sol on October 5th, 2009
Yep, that pretty much sums it up! :)
by Ed the Jetpacking Headbanger on October 5th, 2009
Well, the tree is fake and I usually don't have chocolates in my stockings. You forgot about sitting in front of the fireplace while enjoying a Christmas Ale.
by Nickeljeff on October 5th, 2009
Well since artificial is not technically alive I would say true.
When do they film the Disney Christmas parade?

awww, that's too bad :(
It's so cozy when you come home and smell the pine!!!
Man, you are missing out !
by angelzz on October 6th, 2009
I'm not missing out. I've been there, done that and it's just a waste of time to put up a stupid tree just for me and my bird would have no idea what it's all about. If I want to smell the pine I'll take a hike in the woods. :-)
by 1858 Remington 1-21-13 on October 6th, 2009
hahahaha
That's hilarious and sad at the same time.
But, you do have a point.
Just make sure you don't forget to take a hike in the woods this winter.
Your bird is beautiful, by the way.
by angelzz on October 6th, 2009
No need to be sad about it, I'm not, it's the way I want it. Thank you about my bird. :-)
by 1858 Remington 1-21-13 on October 7th, 2009
+6 i am not putting up one this year, myself
by -Icy- on October 8th, 2009
I know a lot of people who don't fool with them either. :-) BUT, if I did have one I would like you -Icy Silver to be the only present under my tree. :-) Thank you for the 6. :-D ♥♥♥♥
