It is summer here, you insensitive clod! (Score:5, Insightful)
And when it *is* winter, there isn't a holiday.
"Bah humbug"? (Score:2, Insightful)
Why is not celebrating any of the religious days in this period considered bug humbug? Do you decorate your dwelling for Muslim holidays? (Of which the Christian Christmas, and the Gregorian New Year are neither.)
Where I live, not only isn't there winter (or summer for that matter), there are a variety of religions, they all (or at least most of them) get official holidays. I'm irreligious myself, so I'll be doing nothing special this Christmas. But why does "bah humbug" apply? Because people are pushing their religion and/or point of view on others.
The poll could easily have said simply "not at all".

This is an American website. The majority of users are Americans. As a result, it will sometimes contain cultural references that are irrelevant to you. When that happens, just click somewhere else. Don't go out of your way to get all huffy that some people might talk about something that doesn't concern you.

Because Bah humbug specifically relates to not celebrating Christmas... read some Charles Dickens :)
