First of all, I don't want to turn this into any sort of political thing. I just wanted to commiserate with my fellow non-believers on this, the most... Solsticey of occasions.
Sure, Christmas has brought us some fun movies, some half-decent songs (at about a 10,000:1 bad-to-good ratio) and, if you're a "sellout" like me and celebrate with your family, presents. But... well, the Jews think they have it bad, but they've at least started their own traditions for the occasion (see Evan Weiner's thread). Mostly I just find my non-believing ass sitting quietly in a corner and waiting for the whole messy affair to be over.
I mean, if you went to last month's meeting, you know we're all secretly plotting to end Christmas. (Bill O'Reilly's damned close to finding us out, incidentally.) But apart from the sinister conspiracy, what do you guys do to not observe the 25th of December?

Said it before and I'll say it again: that guy was framed. Those damned inconsiderate Whos with their NOISE! NOISE! NOISE! They're lucky all he did was steal Christmas.
my un-celebration used to consist of- myself, james michael, at least two or three illegal substances and a 3 day stay in a hotel.
now i'm participating because i have a baby, but i'm not a fan. i'm not usually one to be a conspiracy theorist, but xmas is just a big fucking plot to suck money out of everyone under the premis of do- gooding. it's not like it was when i was little. i probably wouldn't hate it so much if it still had any magic to it.
I sit in on Christmas Mass and yell snarky comments out like I'm trapped at a screening of Catwoman.
Those twinks with the smoking purses always shoot me the nastiest looks.

I'm a Christmas-loving agnostic. I even don't mind the Bible-reading portion of the Charlie Brown Christmas special, and my favorite Christmas song is overtly religious (O Holy Night).
Thing is, Christmas is clearly a repurposing of pagan holidays celebrating the Winter Solstice. The little evidence we have suggests that Jesus was born in the spring.
I'm a sell-out for the presents.
other-wise I'd stay home and watch Godzilla movies, maybe draw St. Nick injectin' coke into his arm.
