Are These "Christmas Traditions" Overrated?

Let's be honest, not EVERYTHING about the holidays is awesome unless you're, like, seven years old. Some things just feel like more trouble than they're worth.

A website recently suggested various "Christmas traditions" and then asked people whether they're really still GUNG-HO about it if it's just so-so or if it's something that they secretly despise.

 

Thousands of people weighed in, and these were the responses:
