Do the "12 days of Christmas" start on the 25th or end on it? I've never been quite clear on that point.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

yes. the season before Christmas is "Advent" and it ends Christmas Eve

[–] grue 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I know you clarified afterwards, but still, LOL

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I'm celebrating as hard as I can. no time for syntax.

[–] accidentalloris 3 points 11 months ago

Starts on the 25th, ends on Epiphany, when the magi showed up.

[–] Viking_Hippie 2 points 11 months ago

There's actually one of them in each month, all on the 13th.

Tbf those hoose lights are neutral colored so they can be for any holiday like new years.

It's staying up until January 13th as it's supposed to.

Christmas takes place all year long now.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

It's zero days till Christmas, because it's still Christmas for 10 more days.

My partner puts them up November 1st and then takes them down on boxing day.

I get their logic. You want them up in the build up and then gone once Christmas is done.

[–] HonoraryMancunian 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I don't get their logic. 1st November?!?!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

  1. 2024 is a leap year.
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Originally Christmas celebrations were 12 days. It's still accepted to keep an decorations up until the 12th day, so that means you can start taking things down on Epiphany

[–] fury 1 points 11 months ago

I'm gonna keep my Christmas tree up all year and just halfassedly redecorate it for each holiday.
