A really small issue that I do not like. 15:59 - Oct 9 with 5102 views | MattinLondon | At this time of year when a lot of the shops and supermarkets and internet sites are all geared towards Christmas. It really bothers me when Father Christmas is referred to as Santa Claus. Father Christmas just sounds much more jolly and welcoming. And I’ve never really liked the name Santa Claus and it bothers me. Are there anymore small things or issues that bothers anyone? And by small, I mean quite insignificant that doesn’t bother anyone? |  | | |  |

No, it’s not the Americanisation, or its perception that makes me perfer Father Christmas. It’s just a better name that brings up better imagery. |  | |  |

Terrible, ain't it. I read on GB News that you can't even use the phrase 'utter woke nonsense' on message boards nowadays. Free speech? Pah. They'll be stopping us being utter nasty, racist bigots next. |  |

I dislike them far more than I should - basically cos they eat grass seed whenever I try and sort out my lawn. No one else seems to share my dislike for them - I am literally battling the bastards all alone, but it's a battle I won't back down from. |  |

There’s an entire industry of that crap over here. Usually faux crafted tat with stupid little sayings. Large wooden boards with pictures of food on saying “EAT” to hang in your kitchen in case you need a reminder. Fk. Off. |  |
