Woman Aims Christmas Light Middle Finger at Her Neighbor

Faced with the problem of adequately expressing her Christmastime hatred for her next-door neighbor, Sarah Childs went the classy route and flipped her neighbor the bird. Well, her neighbor and everyone else who passes Childs' street at night, because this particular sign-language F-You is made out of Christmas lights -- and it was proudly displayed on the roof of Childs' house:

Man Protests Nativity Scene With 6-Foot Beer Can Sculpture

Chaz Stevens was annoyed to learn that there was a Nativity scene on display at the Florida State Capitol, so as an atheist, he did the rational thing about it: He ignored it. And by "ignored it," we mean he drove 450 miles from Fort Lauderdale to erect a beer-can Festivus pole beside it in the Statehouse Rotunda. Yes, that's Festivus, as in the made-up anti-holiday from Seinfeld.

Guy Crucifies Santa on His Lawn, Is Shocked People Are Offended

We've all had that one neighbor who puts up terribly tacky Christmas decorations every year, but no one has the heart to tell him because he's just so into it. Such is apparently the case in Corpus Christi, Texas, where one man living near the local church unveiled his take on Christmas: a bloody Santa nailed to a cross under the Slayer logo. He says it's totally not meant to offend anyone, though.

Couple Sets Up Anti-Santa Christmas Decorations for Politics

A Christmas lights contest is always a fun time for all involved, especially if you add a side order of "debating immigration laws with your neighbors." A couple in Australia proved that by decorating their yard with a barbed-wire fence covered in lights surrounding signs with anti-Santa propaganda like "Stop the sleds" and "We will decide who comes down our chimney and the circumstances in which they come."

"Santa, Satan ... the connections are there."

There's a point to the apparent crazy: The couple is attempting a satire on an Australian anti-asylum movement, which works to turn back boats loaded with political refugees from war-torn countries. As it turns out, they are less "insane anti-elf xenophobes" and more social justice crusaders using perhaps not the most effective platform. Hopefully Santa keeps up with politics Down Under, though, or someone's getting some reindeer turds down their chimney.
