Apart from the obvious stuff being:
Trees, snow, santa, presents etc.
Is there anything in particular, when you see it you think of Christmas?

Primal madness. There is no sight quite as bad as Black Friday shoppers fighting over junk just to save a couple bucks. I use to love Christmas, but frankly its lost all of its fun. The only thing I like about it anymore is when its over.

Ninja Turtles.
My favorite present of all-time was when my dad got me a a huge box filled with all the new Ninja Turtles. It was pretty cool receiving such a large amount of figures at once. I think it was like 20+ figures all brand new in their boxes.
Nevermind, that was a present.

Ima go slightly out of the ordinary and say:
The cold weather
Dark mornings
Short days + long nights
Smell of coal smoke outside people's houses
The smell outside around evening time (don't know what it is, comes with the time of year, smells like clean, fresh air, probs due to cold weather, but can't smell it during the day)
Friendly people
This is stuff that I associate with christmas because it marks the run-up to the big day

My three favorite things are lights and the jolly music and movies.

warmth, my childhood, alcohol buzz, slight stark loneliness. 1, 2 and 4.  I have a really good friend who's birthday is the day before. But aside from the religious aspect and the Santa aspect of it...that's about it. |

The Charlie Brown Christmas Special. I re-watched it this week and was floored. For being geared towards kids, that thing was pretty deep. I also think of staying up late Christmas Eve and waking up at like 6 getting like no sleep, a little tradition of mine.
