No, don't get us wrong. We're not saying that we should all be jumping for joy at the thought of heading back to work next week. Far from it.
However, for a lot of people there comes a time between Christmas Day and New Year's Day where it all gets a bit tedious. The never-ending chocolate supply, day after day of being hungover and the relentless screenings of Harry Potter all add up to give some a feeling of malaise.
Doing what we doing best, Irish people have been sharing their misery online. How many of these can you relate to?

Ok so on one hand I could go to my family Christmas get-together and have a wonderful time surrounded by people I love

OR
I could spend my day in a terrifying-yet-satisfying existential crisis watching Black Mirror: Bandersnatch
Now THAT’S a choose-your-adventure.
Is anyone else’s body just rejecting Christmas at this point?

I have developed two mouth ulcers and an aggressive head cold overnight.
Also - my skin has a slightly grey tinge to it which resembles that of someone who has been deceased for some time now.

All the Harry Potters being on over Christmas is probably the reason why I’ll fail my one exam
