why do you care if it's a holiday or not?
if someone tried to tell me it was a holiday i'd say " oh really? cool. happy merry kwanza"
weren't you just bitching that people are too easily offended?

People actually get offended by "happy holidays." Because God forbid we tolerate other religions in America. It's just too hard....

Didn't that used to be the point of this country?

Maybe it was a prop. That guy sounded an awful lot like Dom Joly from Trigger Happy TV.

Guys, re-read this post.

Yeah, man, I figure whatever gets people through the night, through their day-to-day, whatever, is fine by me so long as it's not harming anyone. This thing was staged, so whatever, but it does illustrate a point where some people really get worked up by others doing fairly innocent stuff. It's like when people get fired up about hearing "Merry Christmas" and then other people get fired up by hearing "Happy Holidays."

Meh, I don't really care either way. I'm sure there will be the same "Put the Christ back in Christmas" billboards around, it'll create a controversy, some wacky person will get offended by the few lines of the Gospels in Charlie Brown's Christmas and demand it not be used in a school play, etc.

I don't care either way, though I do say "Merry Christmas" instead of the milquetoast "Happy Holidays." Oh, and real egg-nog. Fuck's sake, I'll get lit up on that shit sometime in the next month.

It's like making us listen to Barney the Dinosaur every June.

You're so dismal but so am I so let's be friends.
