re: Is there a more overhyped "holiday" than New Year's Eve?

The Germans are some prolific fireworks enthusiasts. My 3 year old has been glued to the living room windows for an hour now taking in the show. It's been a joy watching her excitement

In conversing with folks, a lot are spending time at home as opposed to parties and ourdoorsy celebrations, myself included.

I am sick of all these lazy millennials taking time off because their “kids” are out of school. As if they have any. They spend an hour a week complaining to their therapist about their parents so I know they aren’t seeing them
Need to drop all holidays so I don’t have to hear any more excuses about how the customers are going to get back to them in January

No

Easter has taken over that. Kids don't get candy anymore, just video game consoles and new TV's. It's insane.

...ok?

I really don't get the obsession with complaining about holidays. Celebrate if you want, or don't celebrate if you don't want to.
For some reason people get really upset at the idea of other people having fun.

I’m gonna get on Grindr and invite some dudes over to smoke and watch football.

To all the miserable fux in this thread:
I love this holiday. For me, I’d rank it after Xmas and Thxgiving, but not far behind turkey day.
Hear me out…
1. It’s our wedding anniversary, so we typically start out with a fancy restaurant.
2. Many NYE’s we spent at killer concerts (Grateful Dead, Dead & Co., Billy Strings)
3. I like drinking in general, and champagne in particular.
4. I don’t care about fireworks one way or the other, but if you hate them, stay far away from Hawaii. They are fiends for fireworks (yes I spent NYE there).
5. The next day we get another feast, more booze, and football all day.
If all of this sounds terrible to you, we can’t be friends (and you’re a boring old party-pooper).

Are we doing gifts on NYE now and I missed the memo?
We’ll pick up some bourbon and have Old Fashions at midnight while hanging out on the couch.

We will have Italian food and wine at home tonight. Husband started his football bowl games for the day. We have nowhere to be tomorrow and as mebtioned- no gifts. Seems perfect to me. But we also don't live where people pop fireworks in their yard so that helps.

This evening will be spent watching playoff game outside by the fire then at midnight go in and boink the wife. Sounds like a good day to me.

I like NYE. But I don’t watch the NY show BS.

It’s not even the most overhyped holiday this week much less overall.

Mardi Gras?

Yes. Christmas consumerism alone vaults it to the top of the leaderboard by a monstrous margin.

New Year's Eve is for da young. Me...I'm going to sleep at my usual..........
But tomorrow I will include in my New Years Day Meal? Black-eyed peas for Good Luck and Cabbage for Prosperity.
A glass(s) of wine for good cheer.

It's just for a specific crowd...was a blast and a reason to bar hop till all hours when I was young... but yea now it's meh... also easily the worst food of any holiday...good lord.
While I don't mind NYE, I get annoyed by flood of edgy people posting that they'll be asleep!! or on their couch. Ok we get it..you don't like to party... what a unique and original thought
