Depends on the tradition, or in some cases, parts of each tradition. Take Christmas. I enjoy large meals with the family, but IMO gift giving is (for the most part) a waste of money.
Then there's traditions that are really nothing but nonsensical rules imposed on us by society. Take pie eating, for example. Everyone eats pie with a fork and a knife, but to me that shows a lack of efficiency. If the pie is properly made it can be eaten with a knife alone. Cut, stab, shove. Simple as that, yet everyone considers that to be improper. So long as I'm not making a mess, wtf does it matter? :|
