grapeeaterSo Christmas is coming up, I guess. It's more of a lover's holiday in Japan, but it doesn't seem like it is here? I guess it's more like the American version without the religion.
What sort of things do you guys do for Christmas in your home worlds? I usually just ignored it, mostly, since it's not as big of a deal where I'm from and I wasn't dating anyone. Apparently in other countries eating fried chicken on Christmas isn't a thing? I don't know why it's a thing in Japan, it just is.

[ And eating fried chicken too, apparently, but that's nothing to complain about!! ]
i had thought that just putting up a tree and spending the day with your family was the way everyone would spend it!!! i mean i guess i could maybe see how it's romantic but
i never would've thought there are places where it's mainly for people in love!!!

With the cold weather, fried chicken sounds like a good idea however.

Date: 2015-12-16 03:37 am (UTC)Fried chicken is okay, but it's really fattening.
