Isn't it time to turn them off? I love the holidays as much as the next guy, but this is freakin' ridiculous! Someone on my street still has them turned on on January 30th. Is ther some rule of thumb for this?

Pathetic! I have to stare at my neighbors icicle lights all year long as they can't take a ladder and 10 minutes and take them down!!!! It kind of ticks me off to have to look at them as the mercury hits 95 degrees in August!

you guys are right on the money with this one. It also takes away from the special time frame of the holidays.

Christmas lights should only be up fro the day after Thanksgiving until New Years Day. Both are days that most people have off from work.

Seeing Christmas stuff starting in October through Valentine's Day is maddening.

As of lastnight the people at the bottom of the street my dad lives on still have up icicle lights all the way around the house!

I'll take mine down,Geeze what Grinches....:rotf2:

JD, go to Pulaski and fish the Salmon RIver, they keep them up all
year, with annual snow falls of somethin around 300 inches, what
else do they have to do? :D

WTF! The people on my street finally took down their lights last weekend. Tonight, I'm driving through Canton and not only do I pass 3 houses with lights on, the town still has the trees along Washington St. downtown lit up. It's almost Easter!

The 12 days of Christmas end on January 6th?????? I think.

I've got a few neighbors with the lights still up & on.

One of my neighbors just took down their lights from christmas.

Now, from about 6pm on, their entire front yard glows green with St. Patty's Day lights.

I guess I should take the wreath on my door down....

It doesnt bother me all that much... but it bothers my wife to no end...they are one of the few things that will cause her to drop an "F" bomb... VERY RARE...

i'll put some new ones up.... soon

i'll make them special outdoor black light bulbs

and then paint a huge psychedelic jimmy hendrix poster
on the barn door :grins:

that will make my neighbor's real happy. :rotf2:

i want them on my car

I took em down yesterday. Going to put em back up next weekend so I remember how they go.....:grins:

So, I've been noticing that a house on route 28 in Bridgewater still has the inflatable light up holiday decorations in their yard. I drive by every Friday night on the way to my son's soccer game and sometimes during the week if I go over my friends house. I'm heading down that way again tonight. If they're still up, I'm gonna try to get a picture of them. It's freikin 80 degrees outside! I don't get it.

What made you grave digging...Is life that bland???

Yes life is that bland. And for the record, the decorations are still inflated and lit as of tonight.

You should get a bunch of friends and go christmas caroling at their house, maybe they would get the hint!

RF9,That is my wife's biggest pet peeve as well and I get to hear about it,like I have control over the situation.

It's funny how some still leave them on,some put them up & they look good depending on setting,application on or off season,some look like $hit even in season,but we all have our own threshold/benchmark of taste.I don't know what makes most people tick, whether it's procrastination, laziness,they just don't give a crap what other people think,or a combination of thing's.
But I will say this,some true Americans who hold strong family values will leave there house lit for there loved one's who are over sea's to come home for the holidays,not everyone can share the same time frame as most of us do.
See we have the luxury of laying our head down at night in peace while our warriors are out on the front line for us all.
So what ever the case maybe,one just never knows what other peoples circumstance's are.
