When do decorations usually go up and come down? Are there any unique traditions?

    Quebec here. There isn’t much “magic” anymore. Too much too early too soon. It has become pretty much only a cheap commercial stunt.

    Some asshole stores annoyingly start decorating early September, most do it in October. And the fucking music blasting non-stop 24/7.

    Fuck this shit.

      Canada, here.

      It’s the same in the West. There are 12 days of Christmas and none of them are in fucking November.

      My wife and I like to get out of town when we can, but lately it’s a low-key night at home, no work, watching some telly or something. She likes all the classics: misfit toys and Burl Ives.
