Chill out peeps, christmas is cool. OK so it's 99.9% commercial, but just ignore it if it bothers you that much.

It wouldnt be so bad if they only put the Christmas - sorry Vegescoob Non religion specific winter celebration - items up in November. September is waaaay too early. Dont mind Christmas myself but you kind of get sick of it by the time December arrives.
