Nothing! I’ve successfully ignored Xmas my entire adult life

May I suggest having a Christmas with your friends, whatever way you like it?

This year I spent Christmas with one friend, and we just did whatever made us happy. We watched a few movies, and smoked some weed. She decorated the tree, I cooked my favorite meal. No gifts or anything, no yelling, just a good time. Probably the best Christmas I had in years.

Spend your time with the people you love and cherish. Christmas doesn't necessarily need to be about family or gifts.

Downvotes are from people who like to be unhappy. I absolutely agree with your sentiment!

Ditto! No tree, no lights, no presents, no big dinners or parties. Just a few days off, which my husband and I spent with our two cats.
