Boxing Day 

Thanks to Alexander V. Boxing, for holding the first “Boxing Day” Sale in his Montreal haberdashery December 26, 1818, the day after Christmas, thus creating a new Canadian Holiday Tradition.

Boxing Day 

Big holiday on the day after Christmas in the United Kingdom and many of the Commonwealth countries. Boxes of gift items and money were distributed to one's servants or employees--probably the origin of Christmas bonuses.
On Boxing Day in the Middle Ages, the Lord of the Manor gave boxes of tools, money and other things his serfs needed to do their work in his lands. Today, boxes of clothing and food items are given to the needy.

Boxing Day 

Boxing day is the day after Christmas Day, when the English sit in boxes and box.
"Hey, keep that cardboard box, we can use it to box it on boxing day!"

X-Boxing Day 

It is the one day over the Christmas holidays where you are entitled to uninterrupted X-Box entertainment without the apprehension of having to switch it off.

This remarkable day occurs either on Boxing Day or on some other agreed day with your spouse.

Whilst it is lovely spending time with family, this is an effective pragmatic settlement that helps to soften the unpleasant experience of unwillingly enduring dreary Christmas TV, imposed through common family demand.
"I hear you are not spending Christmas at home this year, is there any chance you could jump online for some Special Ops?"

"No, but I do have an X-Boxing day agreement. Unfortunately I am ill-fated to be in an unfamiliar habitat during Christmas, but Knowing X-Boxing day is nearing whilst I respectfully give my support to another’s customary routine, is especially reassuring."
