It should be illegal to put anything except multi-colored lights on a Christmas tree. You’re all-white tree isn’t “elegant” or “classy.” On the contrary, Christmas is supposed to be festive, a celebration, not “elegant” or “classy.”Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250

Damn straight! And apparently it’s an unpopular opinion bc every single person I know hates colored lights and they all have an all white fucking tree & all say the same shit. “It just looks prettier.” No, it looks fucking plain & boring.oftenreading said:

To me it’s coloured lights for interior or exterior trees / decorating, but I stand alone in my family on that topic.0

I'm with you. All-white is lame. It was a trend maybe 5 to 10 years ago...we're moving back to color, but some folks still have white lights lingering. You can go all red, all yellow, all blue, only two colors, etc. But no all-white.HesCalledDyer said:It should be illegal to put anything except multi-colored lights on a Christmas tree.

I have never and will never ever put anything but white lights on a Christmas tree, lol. And not modern blue-white ones. Just the nice warm white. I think it looks so nice, and is timeless, not trendy (or untrendy). I don't care if it's elegant or classy. I simply think it's prettiest and makes me feel best when I look at it.OnWis97 said:

"ice cold" is 50-60 degrees?rummy said:
It seems that you are correct: https://vinepair.com/wine-101/right-temperature-serve-every-type-wine/mcgruff10 said:
(Although my father-in-law, who was born in rural Italy, would disagree.)
And the article says most people are wrong in thinking that red wine is served room temperature, it should be 60-70 degrees. Well, isnt room temperature usually about 70 (for me its usually about 65 year round, except in the summer its about 70)?
So based off this, most people are correct to serve red wine at room temp.

And then there is my sister’s tree. I’m sorry, is this Christmas or are we at a fucking wedding? Thought I taught her better than this.

Why would you use a band like that... and a bow on the top. Haha. Still better than a multicolored chaos though.HesCalledDyer said:

Do you not use garland - or a similar band of decorative trim - in Sweden? It’s common in the US.Spiritual_Chaos said:
