Today, in the second week of August, hell has come to earth; my mom has been playing Christmas music all afternoon and is already searching online for decorations. I hope she buys a length of rope to go with them, because I've already given up on life. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I came home to find my parents wearing Santa hats and blasting Christmas music at full volume. So begins three months of hell. FML
Today, I've had my tenth "Christmas" dinner since Christmas last took place. My mum has gone nuts and keeps playing Christmas music, making these dinners, and refusing to let me take down the Christmas decorations. My dad is too whipped to save us from this hell. FML
Today, my mother has issued a 'Christmas Ultimatum'. The rest of us have exactly 2 days to "get some Christmas around here" or we will feel her wrath. FML
Today, on the third of February, my mom finally relented and let us take the Christmas decorations down. FML
Today, my mother was digging up our Halloween decorations, and found the Christmas decorations as well. She's shoddily decorated the house already in half-Halloween and half-Christmas style to save time. I guess we'll be celebrating Christmasween for the rest of the year. FML
Today, my mom got drunk and decided to unwrap all my Christmas gifts and throw them at the wall. Ho, ho, ho. FML
Today, I'm already dreading Christmas. Our mom insists on fairytale-like decorations that everyone else pays for and helps her make. We're exhausted. She's the only one who doesn't have a job, but if we don't help she spends the day crying in her room. FML
Today, it's that time of year again: my mom has threatened to disown me if I celebrate Christmas in any way, shape, or form. Yes, she is an extreme bible thumper. No, she doesn't see what is wrong with her behavior, nor does she care. FML
Today, my mom started getting ready for the Rapture. FML
Today, I woke up to find our Christmas tree knocked over, unwrapped presents scattered everywhere, and my mom passed out on the sofa with a bottle of booze. Merry Christmas. FML

It would be one thing if it was July. At least she could use the excuse that it is Christmas in July cuz apparently that's s thing. I'm so so sorry, OP. I suggest investing in some ear plugs before you go insane....

they need to pass a law, making it ILLEGAL to play christmas music and/or put up decor before thanksgiving

I like getting Christmas shopping done around this time of year, to avoid having to go to outlets and malls during holiday season. Plus, you avoid shortages and price bumps, but I don't put up decorations until at least the first week of December. I'm all for early Christmas shopping, but damn....

I work in a Christmas Barn. I have been surrounded by lights, handling decorations, covered in glitter and even singing along to the Christmas music since the first weekend of June....I can feel your pain

@ Little_Lost_Lamb; My neighbor has never taken his lights, tree, or the Rudolph antlers and/or nose on his car, down. AqThe radio for us overnight workers? It's a fixed setting. And from mid September, until December 26th, our station begins playing Christmas

OP, I just saw this today. I work as a receiver for a wholesale store and I got Christmas trees off my delivery yesterday. In 4 weeks, we're setting up Christmas stuff. The very thought eats at my half ginger soul

Ugh. I hate Christmas and Christmas music. I'm dreading the day they start playing that shit everywhere I go for like three months.
