Artificial.  17 years.  Whenever we damn well feel like it.

 

Festivus pole is up year-round.

So what you're saying is your wife is faking it?

It only counts as a Festivus pole for maybe a month.  The rest of the year it's a stripper pole.

 

Unless you have strippers the rest of the year, your Festivus pole is as useless as my neighbors year round Christmas lights

O

Artificial 

 

The last time I had a real tree, my son was 10. He had never experienced the “joy” of a real tree, so we got one that year to fulfill his request.  After allowing it to come to temp in the garage and have all the bugs crawl off, we still ended up with spiders in the house. The mess from the needles (even with a tree bag), combined with the bugs, made that a one and done.

 

The tree he puts up at his house is artificial. You’d think he’d want the pleasure of the real tree experience in his own home after having it denying to him when growing up.   
 

As to when it goes up… usually after thanksgiving. 

Fake tree. It goes up the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

 

 

I was on Team-Real for many years when my kids were little.

 

These days it a very "real looking" artificial tree........usually up around December 1st.

 

 

 

Had a real one every year when I was little.

 

Now artificial, because &#%$ that mess.

I didn't see a 'no tree' option.

How about a ceramic one? Or would you prefer a stick in a bucket of mud. 
 

Or for you a paper cutout  or a blowup one

Gotta be real. Tried an artificial once, I felt guilty the whole time it was up.

This is me also. I do have the big C8 bulbs but in LED's, and once they get plugged in, they are left on 24 hours a day till January 1. How I roll....

Real.  Typically a Charlie Brown Christmas tree, but on occasion we get a real nice one.

 

Taken from the back yard at 1/2 time of a Bills game 1-2 weeks before Christmas.

Fake.  I'm lazy. 

 

 

Now heres the next question....when do you take it down? Do you do it on the proper day (SAME DAY AS INSURRECTION DAY! REEEEEE!!!!) or do you chuck it on the 26th like the F-ing heathen you are?
