I remember the first time I muttered, I hate Christmas.
I was sitting in my car watching the snow fall in bumper-to-bumper traffic on a Black Friday. The sun had just come up and I was trying to find a parking spot the third stop on my tour of shopping plazas to interview sleep-deprived shoppers. My feet hurt from getting stepped on by moms desperate to buy that years hot toy, and my ribs hurt from getting elbowed by a burly man closing in on a stack of video games.
Yeah, I hate Christmas. Years of covering holiday shopping will do that to a person...
Smith: “ I hate Christmas.”
Sounds like she also hates capitalism.
After reading her article, it sounded more like she hated Black Friday, but in good leftist fashion, she broad-brushed and declared war on Christmas instead.
