Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 770 Joined: 7 Jan 2008   | Work, come home, be very bored, decide to finally watch Wallace & Gromit in A matter of Loaf and Death, be very bored again, celebrate a bit with my family wich to a very great part includes eating dinner, give gifts, go to sleep, wake up, watching and gaming for the next two days. Should be a pretty exact account of what i'll do. |

Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 849 Joined: 5 Aug 2008   | Annual family party Christmas Eve, that's always fun. Presents over my parent's house Christmas morning, then off to my aunt's for dinner, and finally to my grandmother's for desserts and more presents. We also just had a big snow storm, started Friday afternoon and ended Sunday night, so there will be plenty of snow left over by Thursday. |
On the Record  Posts: 5491 Joined: 13 Aug 2008    | Go to my grandparents on Christmas Eve, come back and open presents with my Dad, go to my Mom's house and sleep, wake up and have Christmas with her and our family on my Mom's side, wait a little while, and then go to my grandmother's house for Christmas dinner. I like spending time with my family... |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1166 Joined: 23 Jul 2008   | This is quite funny as I asked a friend this and his response was "Yo mama" It makes sense even if it was lame. Anyway I will not do much... |

No he was just goofing off, I came in and asked and he yells "Yo MAMA!". He was in tears laughing as soon as he realized what just happened. |

It all makes sense now... |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1554 Joined: 10 Sep 2008  | I'll wake up and open my presents, retreat to my bedroom to mess around with them only to leave to gather some of the food stuffs then back to my room to play them once more, also I'll try to unsuccessfully get my xbox connected to my computer but hopefully this time it works. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1145 Joined: 22 Dec 2008  | On Christmas, I don't do much. My extended family and I just have a big linner and talk. We're not doing presents this year. (Finally)! On Christmas Eve is where the fun is. My close family goes to Kansas City for a day on the town and lunch at a kinda nice restaurant. |
Muckraker  Posts: 272 Joined: 22 Dec 2008   | I have to work on Christmas! So I was wondering what you people would be doing while I'm slaving away at my latest report. This may give me ideas for next year when I hopefully will not be at work! |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1145 Joined: 22 Dec 2008 | Well, every Christmas Eve, I go to the nearest city with a lot of people to have a nice lunch and just walk around the mall and its immediate vicinity. The stores have some new Christmas decorations every year. On New years eve I just have a glass or two of champagne at midnight. It's fun, though. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1132 Joined: 26 Jan 2008   | Well the only plans i have so far involve going to the country with my gf and her family. |
Escapist Co-Founder  Posts: 829 Joined: 21 Nov 2004   | I'm actually staying home! I've traveled so much this year, I've put my foot down and am not going anywhere. My fiance and I are having our families over for good food, drinks, presents and games. I'm hoping it'll be fairly laid back fun. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1184 Joined: 16 Nov 2008 | Drinking a bit, chilling with some friends, playing xbox, and hitting up the mall. Good stuff |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3948 Joined: 7 Nov 2007 | I'm doing what I do every year, open presents and get pissed to a point I can blank out the rest of the day... |

Copy Clerk  Posts: 114 Joined: 17 Jan 2008     | Sit, talk to my family, after they all pass out drunk, I'll play Mass Effect for a bit. After fifteen minutes, Mass Effect will crash and I'll headbutt my desk until I pass out. |

That, but change anime to SR2 and World at War. |

Due to the lack of Christmassy threads and my constant wanting to learn about other countries, i've made this thread.
Basically, i'd like to know what part of the world you're from and if you have any special way of celebrating Christmas there.
I'm from England and so i get tipsy, eat until i'm ready to burst and watch telly with the family.
I suspect this may be a common theme all over the globe...
