'We call each other by our middle names on Christmas Eve': 20+ Weird holiday traditions that people thought were normal, but were actually unique to their family

Every family has their quirks, especially when it comes to creating holiday traditions. 

Even though Christmas specials on TV depict the day the same way, every family is quite different with how they celebrate the special day. On TV, the family might gather around the tree and open presents on by one. Seems pretty straightforward, right? 

Well, one person in this thread wrote that their family loves to let the kids open just one single present per hour. They get to open a gift, and then wait a long time until they can pick something else. That's an interesting idea, though that probably would take up an entire day. And imagine they open a pair of socks or a toothbrush — they now have to wait 60 minutes to try for a more fun gift. 

U/TheJackal8 was curious about the "weirdest holiday tradition your family has," and over 1,800 people commented to share their favorite ones.
