The “Water Cooler” is a feature on Claycord.com where we ask you a question or provide a topic, and you talk about it.
The “Water Cooler” will be up Monday-Friday at noon.
QUESTION: It’s Nov.5 – Is it too early for Christmas lights & other Christmas decorations?
Talk about it….
.
No, not early.
.
However, those who leave their Xmas lights and other random Xmas decorations up all year show that they are downright TACKY and LAZY.

I’m permanently disabled and on a fixed income. How do you assume I can do what you’re able to do just because you’re able bodied or financially secure? I think your entitle comment completely missed the point of the question but please, carry on sir
PG&E is playing Scrooge with their outrageous electricity rates, so YES, it’s way to early…
For commercial use, I think it’s too early. Christmas decorations should come after Thanksgiving. For private homes, they’re free to do whatever makes them happy.
Yes, it is too early for Christmas decorations.
YES!!!
Yes!
yes! …nothing till after Thanksgiving!
No it’s not to early we need all the cheer and happiness we can get.The world is so negative right now.
It’s the media that’s negative. The media keeps telling us the country is racist and divided, when in reality it isn’t true. When I go out I see people from every nationality, and from all walks of life going about their business, interacting, and getting along with everybody else.
It’s unfortunate that some people believe what they see on the news, when the opposite is occurring in real life.
Dawg is right-on correct!
@Dawg
I think you are absolutely right about the media. Their goal has obviously been to divide us and unfortunately they seem to have made some inroads with some people…..but NOT all us us by a long shot.
Yes, to early for me. I turn on my Christmas lights after Thanksgiving.
I don’t think so. My opinion is slanted though, as I have Christmas colored lights on in my backyard just about year round. If somebody wants to enjoy the festive decor for longer than the month or so between Thanksgiving and Christmas, good on them. I brighten up myself when I see the decorations…
Too soon for me but not for some of my neighbors. But most of them wait until Thanksgiving week. I do mine the 1st weekend in December. I do rather resent the stores that start pushing Christmas long before Halloween.
Let’s not mingle Thanksgiving and Christmas. I say wait until 12/1.
In a normal year – yes. As the pandemic drags on since March 2020, the more cheer the better! Most of us love the holidays!
First ya gots to get rid of the Halloween stuff!
Yes!!! Can we just deal with one holiday at a time?
i AGREE..
Each big holiday has their own month.
Christmas is now just retailers pushing their overpriced junk ;(
We drove past a house last night with Christmas lights and my husband remarked, “wow, that’s early…not even Thanksgiving, yet.” But you know what? If it makes its occupants happy, good for them…we could all use some cheer.
