Tim lays out his rules for tasteful, somber Christmas decor—single candles in windows, no inflatable lawn ornaments—and argues Christmas should have a severe, dark undertone.
- Tim argues that real wealth at Christmas means having money and simple decorations—a candle in each window, nothing gaudy, no inflatable lawn decorations.
- Apartment dwellers don't get to decorate for Christmas; this advice is for people who own or rent homes with multiple windows.
- Tim defends single candles in windows because Christmas should have a creepiness to it—it marks the death and coldness of the year.
- The best Christmas movie reflects severity in the season, not silliness.
- A Christmas Carol is such a basic answer that Tim wants to strangle the person who said it with a microphone cord.
