Christmas in the city is a fucking pain in the ass. Tourists flood the damn streets with their necks permanently craned upward looking at all the lights (yes, Saks has lights. No, they are not different from last year - you'd know if you'd lived here), blocking pedestrian traffic. It makes trying to buy anything on Fifth a fucking nightmare. Fat people should not wear puffy down jackets; they make them take up more space and they simply make them look more like a beached whale. I hate tourists.
