Or, as Engadget puts it, baby Jesus hates WiFi.
All those Christmas lights at your home or office could interfere with your WiFi signal. To be fair, it's not just Christmas lights that can do this; any electrical devices that you add to your network's environment could alter your WiFi reception. But WiFi interference from Christmas lights is easier to notice, because they're extensive, seasonal, and practically ubiquitous.
So check it out when you string your tree and flip that switch -- you might be dropping an armload of static on your wireless network.
