Sumary: 10 reasons why Uhura hates the holiday season or why Jim always ruins it for her.



1- It’s hard to feel Christmas-sy when you are away from your family - she blames Jim for not letting them even send messages to Earth because of some new threat.

2- Spock doesn’t understand why they should engage in a human tradition no one believes in anymore - Jim is to blame because he opened his big mouth to give a speech of how stupid Christmas was even in the human side.

3- Jim disturbs her planting mistletoe all around the ship - and he is the one to blame when she has to kiss Cupcake.

4- Leonard and Scotty are only interested in the booze and end up singing out of tone - she blames Jim for giving both of them bottles of the best liquor he could find all around the galaxy.

5- She can’t buy presents for all of them, or better, it’s hard to get good presents when they been months without a shore leave - She blames Jim for it.

6- Gaila thinks it’s very much out of taste decorate things in green and red, since people keep jocking that she is a live tree all year around. And gods, the girl whines to Uhura all the time - she blames Jim since his fooling around with the Orion made her extra horny and sensitive and more than usually needy.

7- When she last bought Spock a gift he gave a two hour speech about no understanding the necessity of a supposed holiday to provide him with practical things of everyday life - Jim of course pointed that Uhura bought mittens on a ship that can adjust the temperature and therefore exclude the use of certain garments.

8- The tree she set up in Spock’s room exploded - she blames Jim for saying the thing was safe.

9- The food replicator doesn’t really understand what a eggnog is and they don’t have the ingredients for her to make in the Christmas Eve - she blames Jim for not ordering the thing to be done when she asked it in the last year.

10- Ultimately she hates James Tiberius Kirk, that is the biggest Grinch she ever meet and always get away in making the holiday season as full of job as possible and making people believe it will be best them go back and spend their shore leave when they could really enjoy the company of loved ones when they didn’t have the pressure to find gifts in odd planets.
