The Fourth Stage of Hell--The Mall at Christmas

Anyone else think those old men dressed as Santa Clause who have little kids sit on their laps are weird? I like the mall; the people, the stores--like Hot Topic, Zumies, and Spencers, the food court--which always smells like greasy burgers and Chinese food, the weird stores that sell homemade bags, hats, and incense, and the fact that you can get any body part peirced if you go to the tat shop there. But around Christmas, you feel suffocated, and all the people you happen to hate show up there. Plus, the Santas really creep me out...
