The Holiday Taint 

The Holiday Taint is also known as the days between Christmas and New Years Eve. It aint Christmas and it aint New Years. It's also known for being the absolute suckiest week of the year. During this time you can find people dragging complete ass and praying that the work week passes without killing anyone. Expect to see people conversing with themselves, panicked at the money they just spent, and trembling uncontrollably with periodic crying spells. This is the precursor to New Years Eve/Day completion.
Yo this Holiday Taint really blows horse sac this year.
