Each Part Of The Holiday Season Broken Down In One Sad But True Infographic
John Atkinson is an Illustrator who operates the entertainment website Wrong Hands. His most recent creation is a timely ode to the collective frustration we all must endure known as the holiday season. It seems it backs up further and further every year, and pretty soon it'll be a year round celebration of the holidays.
Eating? Family? Fighting with said family? Football? What the holiday is actually about? Unfortunately, probably not the latter.
Presents? Family? Fighting with said family? Watching all the movies about Christmas?
Resolutions? Getting drunk? Getting a kiss and finding your soulmate? Wishing you weren't at an office party?
As you can see, Thanksgiving is all about overeating and trying not to get annoyed by those in your family. Christmas is all about capitalistic greed extending multiple months. And, New Years is about trying to forget how lame of a year you had and pretend the next one will be different (it won't).
There you have it: every holiday broken down into one perfect illustration. Now, try and enjoy yourself rather than making these sad realizations come true–good luck with that.
