How early is too early?

I imagine everyone immediately thought of their last sexual exploit after reading the title, but really this is a reference to Christmas decorations. At Sears we started putting up Christmas stuff(an entire village) last week. Three months? Are you freaking kidding me? That's like a quarter of the year.

Eventually we'll be the crazy lady on the block that doesn't take the decorations down, she just plugs them in when September rolls around.

    That's not what I thought at all.


    Basically I was reminded of my horrible insomnia.

    Too early is before December. Or at least Thanksgiving. And I mean REAL, AMERICAN THANKSGIVING.

    it hasn't even been halloween yet for goodness sake.

    i think that they shouldn't be put out till after thanksgiving, maybe for stores until the beginning of november, if they must.

    My dad won't allow any Christmas decorations to be put up or any Christmas movies watched or Christmas songs sung in his home until after Thanksgiving and ending on New Years' Day.

    Your comic is depressing.
    It stole every joke it has from Family Guy.
    Your comic should die.

    I've seen it done. It was horrifying.
    I didn't know what time of year it was.

    Get rid of all this pagan rape BS and have a party with candy, colorful lights, good food, and lots of carved pumpkins every day.

    Every day.

    You know, people are always complaining about stores putting out shit for Halloween/Thanksgiving/Christmas too early. But I mean, they wouldn't put it out unless someone was buying it, right?


    I got a case full "oh shit even my dumb family does this" when my little cousins rolled up wearing their Halloween costumes, just barely still in September, I think it was the 29th.

    They put this shit out so early because it works. Not for us, but for fat obnoxious trailer trash that carry around fanny packs.

    When I lived in the Philippines we would see Christmas decorations in September. No joke.

    Go to the store in October and you have Santa Claus next to Jack O'Lanterns.
