And, no, I haven't started decorating. But I much prefer Christmas to Hallowe'en and don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK

I also prefer Christmas over Halloween.

In Singapore, and can confirm. We don't exactly decorate at our homes, but... you'll see it a lot around Orchard Road, i.e. city areas.

A popular place for tourists, Instagram-happy people, or an amateur with a camera (i.e. me).

No, I will acutely focus all hatred at a few select things with the burning intensity of a thousand thousand suns.
