Jack: What’s even the point of Christmas?
Louisa: A chance to show people you care about them
Jack: I was expecting a speech about baby Jesus
Louisa: We've always held winter festivals. It’s about social bonding.
Jack: I just think it’s stupid that everyone rushes around buying presents for a random date somebody chose centuries ago
Louisa: It’s as good a date as any
Jack: But if everyone cares so much about social bonding, shouldn’t they buy each other presents when they actually need them? My parents got a case of wine for my uncle last year, then by March he’d lost his job and been evicted from his house. That’s when he needed a gift, but my parents were too busy paying off pointless wine debts from December.
Louisa: Thank God you’re here to overthrow the tyranny of Christmas
