 This image seems a more negative than I imagined when I got the idea for it. I should say that I love Christmas. I really love time spent with family and friends. However, sometimes that period before Christmas -- with the frantic preparation, pressure, and expectations are peaking -- can be a bit overwhelming.

Now if you're really brave, plug those suckahs in. Or get LED versions which don't emit heat.
