    I largely agree with your comment, the person you replied to is unhinged, but I gotta tell you that Christmas day is the 25th. Often advent calendars will have either 24 or 25 days in them, it just depends on the calendar.

      I feel like the 24th/25th thing is an interesting generational divide. Millennials & below that I’ve talked to usually refer to the 24th as Christmas, whereas older people usually refer to the 25th.

        I have never heard of this before, and was born in '97. It’s always been Christmas and Christmas Eve. Weird.
