Do people in your country celebrate the St. Nicholas day (6th of December)? Did you get or gift any presents or sweets/candies?
Do people in your country celebrate the St. Nicholas day (6th of December)...
He brings bags of clementines, peanuts and sometimes chocolate.
I did. Was fun, got money and candies.
The 6th is when I typically celebrate my b-day and get gifts (if any) because my great grandfather died during Pearl Harbor so we can’t celebrate it then
No, we celebrate the Biblical Magi on the 6th of January and get double presents.
Is it true that in Italy the three kings bring presents and not Santa Claus?
no, it's Mario and Luigi who bring presents
My family had a minor celebration for St. Nicholas day which consisted of finding a few sweets and maybe fruit in your shoe or christmas stocking.
>6th of December
>6
what fucking degeneracy is this
No not really
The "German" Americans here give each other oranges on Christmas Day though
Should be the fifth
Yes.
I've always wondered how Germans can consider themselves Christians after they killed millions of children in gas chambers and conducted medical experiments on humans.
Christians have always been violent hypocrites, it checks out
yes
my little sister hanged a sock for me back home, bless her. so i suppose that makes it a yes.
Well, that was like in the Middle Ages and on a much smaller scale.
>not putting a carrot in a shoe near the fireplace
kys lmao
Yes
Nope we have both St. Nicholas, St. Claus (on 25th) and the Befana (a witch, 6th January)
All of three bring presents but the real deal is always 25th December
st. nicholas is a pagan christanised holiday

Miklavž and his followers walk around and bring gifts on the evening of the fifth.
You did both in gulags no?
I am from Veneto so nope
Lo so che San Nicola sarebbe da Bari ma lo festeggiamo anche qui e penso in altre parti del nord
only in the northwest
no idea what they do in st nicholas day
it used to in southrern france

Maybe it was them in the past. That'd make sense since the one I heard it from said it in the 1950s.
no, we only celebrate NEW YEAR
fuck chr*Stmas and other religious bullshit
NEVER FORGET 6 GORILLION!
Is this the one where they put candy in your shoes? I vaguely remember this from when I was little.
