mine traditions are, on x-mas eve me and my older bro watch Star Wars ESB the greast movie ever, and play a video game. then on x-mass we go see a movie, usually one that comes out on x-mass, this year we'll probally see I Am Legend

i just have the normal traditions

Is it really that hard to type "Christmas"? herbnone

yes, yes it is, plus i'm very much against religion, so calling it CHRISTmass kinda goes against my religion

Christmas Traditions? Hmmmm...............

I type up my Annual Christmas List............Print out like 3 copies.........Pass them around to Family Members..........

Wake up Christmas and open up gifts.

I drink a lot, eat a lot, smoke a bit of ganj, watch films and on boxing day go to see a film at the cinema. It was a tradition for three years to see the LOTR films on boxing day.

Also, you realise that the X in Xmas is an abbreviation for Christ, right?

I've no Xmas traditions, save for waking up early, spending time with my family, and exchanging gifts.

X is the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of Christ when written in Greek. Hence the abbreviation X-mas.

Also, 90% of what you say makes no sense. Learn some English, please.

Anyway, on Christmas Eve everyone always opens up one gift.

It comes from the Greek translation for Christ and is abbreviated, it has been done in this way for nigh on 1000 years.
