    Let's talk a little bit about Christmas. What kind of things at where you live reminds you everyday that it's Christmas soon?

    Here in Norway, it's that in every single shop they sell gingersnap, rack of lamb ribs, Christmas decoration and at least, but not least, the people that runs forward and back to buy presents.

    Usually around the first week of November Christmas music starts being played around the dorms on campus. I actually had a friend who started playing Christmas music October 29th because it was snowing out. I love me some Nat King Cole.

    I was going to say "@DarthTunick be needlessly grumpy", but then I realized that that is relevant every day of the year.

    My kids are watching The Polar Express for the 9875th time super-excited.

    I am listening to Sirius XM channel 17 on a regular basis.

    Trader Joe's is selling triple ginger dark chocolate cookies and gingerbread coffee.

    Whenever I hear Christmas carols on the radio, people post on twitter about Santa Clause coming to town, or my choir teacher telling us how close the Messiah concert is.

    The constant noticing of people saying "Santa Clause" instead of "Santa Claus", since one was a pun-based movie title and the other is how his name is supposed to be ****ing spelled.

    For me I think it was doing Shoe boxes for Samaritans Purse which was my first Christmas vibe of the year.
    The second was watching a little sister sing Christmas Carols with her school choir.

    Annoyingly long delivery times. It would only be fair if they didn't apply to non-Christmas related stuff.

    The iceskating rink nearby and the street decorations are a sure sign Christmas approaching.

    And the endless heaps of tests to mark as well.

    Black Friday. Not that I didn't participate at midnight, because I did, but still.
