The true meaning of Christmas is Demerara rum and egg nog. When the egg nog hits the shelf in Wholesale Club, the season has begun. The day after New Years when the liquor chocolates go half price or less, it's all over.

In France it's called Noel. But they're a bunch of Cowards, what do you expect?
