Then why aren't you out killing people instead of writing about it here? Or at the very least playing a video game about killing people. Makes no sense. Absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Now excuse me, I must go elevate hippos off the ground and throw them at squirrels.

Pssssssssssst Punisher, everyone is out Xmas shopping. Except me, of course.

Why?
Why?
Because Christmas is an over-commercialized holiday that by today's standards revolves around a fat guy who watches you poop. The most hilarious thing is is the fact that most children who learn that Santa Claus doesn't exist become more distrusting of their parents. It's also kinda sad too.
My cousin, on the other hand, celebrates Yule. Same basic gift-giving idea, but without the fat guy. Giving gifts because you appreciate a person, not because you're expected to.

There are three things that are generally celebrated at this time of year. The oldest one is the feast that the shortest day has past, and now the days are getting longer again. This is celebrated with symbols of light (candles) and life (trees). The second thing is the birth of Christ. It makes some sense that these are connected; according to the Bible, He is also some sort of return of the light. And finally, there is the materialistic santaclaus thing where you have to buy as much as you can and give it away to people who don't have a use for it.
Given your previous posts, I take it you don't consider the latter two a reason for celebration. And for the first one, you're on the wrong hemisphere.

We celebrate the pagan rituals of the time between midwinter solstice and the new year (or something like that) or, if you are Christian, the hijacking of the pagan rituals of the time between midwinter solstice and the new year for use in perpetrating the savior more.
Also, a character created almost solely by Coca Cola. Yeah, this is a fun holiday.

Santa Claus isn't a new invention. Sinterklaas is his most obvious influence, but there are other, much older ones. In Finland, we actually still call the figure "Yule Goat", a remnant of celebrations that were popular in the past. Some modern aspects of Santa Claus might have been invented or popularized by Coca Cola, I don't know... Sometimes old traditions are surprisingly new.

Our Yule Buck is pretty epic! He even rode with Thor in Norse mythology. Can't get much more epic than that!
The point about Santa was that, while the idea of a Christmas character isn't new, Santa's entire appearance and personality were constructed by CC. Regardless, this is a weird holiday.
Would a DN celebration have a banana tree
I am very late, but I must correct you. Banana's grow on bushes.
No they don't.
It's actually a herb, not a tree or a bush.
A tree-like herb? Or because it doesn't have a real trunk, maybe a bush-like-herb-that-looks-like-a-tree? The mystery deepens...
Looking on Wikipedia, I have just discovered that the banana is the most radioactive fruit and there is actually a unit of radiation called the "Banana Equivalent Dose".
That's brilliant
The more I learn about bananas the more I like them. I wish they sold red ones near here.
Edit:
"The banana equivalent dose was meant to express the severity of exposure to radiation, such as resulting from nuclear power, nuclear weapons or medical procedures, in terms that would make sense to most people."
Hmm. So standing 1km away from the bomb at Hiroshima would be roughly equivalent to eating more than 4 million bananas all at once. Makes sense.

I'm going to go try that now.

A piece of paper is an ink-lined plane.
An inclined plane is a slope-up.
A slow pup is a lazy dog.
Therefore, a dog is a piece of paper.

Can I try the 4 million banana experiment instead, maybe I might turn yellow. Do carrots really even turn people orangish and if so what about bananas turning people yellow.
I've missed you Punisher.
Im sensing a bit of sarcasm there.
