Christmas STARTS on 25/12/yy and ends on 6/1/yy. As it is 25/10/25 we are stil two months away from the start of Christmas.

There’s a song called the 12 DAYS of Christmas. I will never understand those who think it’s a 3 month season.

Fixed with ISO 8601:

Christmas STARTS on yyyy-12-25 and ends on yyyy-01-06. As it is 2025-10-25 we are stil two months away from the start of Christmas.

There’s a song called the 12 DAYS of Christmas. I will never understand those who think it’s a 3 month season.

I've created a helpful reference for this line of thinking:

12 days of Christmas | 12 weeks of Christmas
"They're the same picture"

You’re welcome to your opinion but that doesn’t mean you’re right.

Tough crowd here.

I was joking.
