I wish people wouldn't put those ghastly lights up outside their homes, especially the ones that flash on and off. Light pollution is the right term for them!
We have a couple near us.
One does the whole front of his house with a whole curtain of blinking lights that flash so they look a bit like a huge purple waterfall, the lights all flashing in sync. Then there are other colours flashing as well plus a large Rudolph and Santa that flashes as well.
If you think of that Coca cola advert, you get the idea
It doesn't shine in my house at night, fortunately as I am set back a bit, but if it did I could see it could be annoying.
It's really quite pretty, he has a different scenario every year and the other houses in the close do a smaller version, maybe just one thing in the garden.
But every year this one house goes over the top and his house and garden is totally smothered in flashing lights.

It reminds me of that film " deck the halls "
