Let's not. Why would people celebrate Winter? Why not put Summer lights up too? They're Christmas lights, we're celebrating Christmas.

 

Cool lights though!

Winter Lights?

 

God I hate all this PC crap, if you have to call them something other than Christmas lights then I suppose "Holiday Lights" would be better, "winter lights" though?

Was wondering at first if it was real too, but I think it is. And it would most likely be somewhere in one of those United States.

Quote from the boyfriend: "That looks like a house from my street...".

Yeah, they do go a bit of the top with Christmas lights in the states don't they. Some treat it as a competition who can have the most extravagant, tacky display.

Well, there are even contests in neighborhoods there to see who has the nicest set-up and stuff. So yeah.

When I went over there last year, I thought it was funny to see all the stuff people put up. Like reindeer in front of their house, or a big inflatable Santa on the roof... Funny stuff, especially when it's like 15-20°C outside. Seems so out of place.

still, it must be nice to see lights like that, over here in england you are lucky to see a set of flashy lights on windows, let alone a giant santa on the roof.

i dunno, i do no that if every light bulb in your house was on all day it would cost ya 12 pence, as they do not cost much, and i do agree that it would get extremly annoying, expecially id it made noises aswell, but that is probably why they have springfield. (no offence to any1)

Yeah but how many thousands of light bulbs does that take? say 2 thousand? 2000 x 12p = 2400p ie 24 quid.

 

Edit: and the thing that makes the lightbulbs flash in sequence probably runs a lot of electricity too
