Unpopular Opinion: Christmas Edition

Picture
There are so many things that I love about Christmas, to bring a little balance to our conversation, I thought I'd talk about the things that I am not that fond of. 
  1. The Animated Christmas Movies-  with the exception of  Charlie Brown Christmas, the Polar Express and maybe Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, the animated Christmas Movies don't entice me enough to sit and watch them all the way through. They normally serve as ambient noise while I'm doing something else.
  2. Egg Nog- the consistency of egg nog is not pleasant to me.  I can never drink it on its own, I always have to pair it with something else to make it more reminiscent of a milkshake.
  3. Peppermint Mocha (anything)-  I am not a fan of putting these two flavors together.  Am I the only one? I enjoy them much more, separately. Give me hot cocoa or a candy cane any day.
  4. Fruit Cake- I know it's a Christmas staple, but I think it's weird to have that much dried fruit in bread. In addition, I am not that fond of the taste of alcohol (I can do an occasional rum bun, but that's about it.)
  5. The Frequency with which Characters in Hallmark Movies use the phrase(s) "Christmas Magic" or "Christmas Miracle"- Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy Hallmark Channel Christmas Movies, however the placement of these phrases within the script don't seem natural or authentic. 

What are some traditional Holiday things that people may be surprised to learn that you do not like?
