I think maybe when I was a child. Now I see the kids get excited and it fills me with a dread because I know they will grow up and face the fraud of the real world and turn as calloused as myself. So I am sad on Christmas. Is there a cure?

We used to go religiously to an Episcopal Church. But with the kids and the distances involved, we quit going. Also, we didn't really have anything in common with that congregation, although I did go to lunch with one of the other lawyers in the congregation and spoke to him about some stuff but never seriously pursued it.

The sad truth is he's complete right, disco fries never learned how to enjoy life and will send his kids to the same fate. They will never have their father model to them how a successful man can find peace and fulfillment and will grow up confused, feeling around in the dark for some sort of purpose. They will turn to charlatans to come up with some sort of distraction like drugs, turning into trannies, championing liberal causes. All the while, disco becoming more depressed and confused, will wonder where it all went wrong and the answer will be with him, sitting on Christmas morning cynically wondering when his kids will wake up and realize the world is fraud while simultaneously dooming them to that very destiny.

The point of life is to work incredibly hard to take care of your family and to never retire. I will pass that on. We are constantly going through how retirement destroys you. Their grandfather is still working at 67, although his wife is now retired. On the other side, their other grandfather retired at 72.5 from his W2 job, but now he lives on a cattle ranch with about 1300 head of steers and is working harder than he ever did when he was an office drone and he is now 75, and then they have their Oma. She is chronically depressed, recently divorced, hasn't worked for several years and spiraling down the drain--highly erratic, constantly getting into car wrecks, and driving me fucking crazy.

We don’t celebrate “Santa Claus” part of it and it makes things much better, perhaps because takes all the gift buying pressure off. We keep it as a religious day of observance. Kids get a couple gifts in the vein of St. Nicholaus but it does not overshadow the birth of Christ.

Warning: people freak out when learning you never taught your kids to believe in Santa, but this is not that unusual among religious communities

Christmas as an adult is absolutely miserable. Oh let's go visit some old bitch in the family that no one talks to the rest of the year because none of us actually like each other. Marvel as you step into her holiday decorated hallucinatorium and forcefully spew half-hearted compliments. Don't forget to order gifts on Amazon that everyone will throw in some basement closet or cranny the moment they get home from their dreadful commute. But don't drink too much eggnog before you head out that door champ, the police are especially aggressive this time of year haha! oh and "happy new year" iirc.
