As a person of Jewish heritage I like the Christmas season... the lights, the snow, the songs and good cheer and eating lots of food at my goyim cousins house mmm.
Merry CHRISTmas
- Thread starter Ted Williams' head
- Start date
That's what I'm saying. Christmas isn't about Jesus anymore, Christmas is about stuffing our fat faces and buying each other useless shit.

I have no problem with Yeshua ben Yoseph de Nazareth, I think his teachings admirable in many ways. But I would agree the greater meaning of the holiday has been lost. I fucking love to stuff my face.

I'm bothered by jerkiness, but never by honest good wishes. Our culture has become eager to monitor for, and then destroy, anyone who deviates from the correct language, whatever the "correct" language currently is. People who look for reasons to get pissy suck, and that's true all down the ideological line. If someone genuinely wishes me well, I take it, and return it.
If you're gonna call
@DannyNL a lil bitch then just be out with it already.
Nah, not Danny, him and Frank Zappa are cool with me, and I'm always down for a conversation. I was thinking more of my husband's rigidly Catholic ex-coworker who was always shaming store clerks and stuff for wishing him Happy Holidays. That kind of person, who looks for butthurt and relishes it.If you're gonna call
Cards Against Humanity at the Xmas party last year went badly for him.

Oh man, I know the Pope, churches, atheism, abortion, and Jesus got deployed with ruthless abandon. Plus Rwanda? It was ugly.
I should clarify that this guy was a salesman in a group of programmers, and he used to regularly spam them all with insane antigay and anti birthcontrol and anti breast implant etc rhetoric. No one else would have deserved it, or received it.

i dont really give a fuck about religion but christmas is a jesus holiday.if you dont like that you are probably a terrible human being. it is a time to be with family and friends and be good people for a day or 2 out of the year.it is about seeing kids faces light up with excitement and anticipation.anyone who doesnt like christmas is probably miserable anyway.my family doesnt go to church or any of that nonsense but if someone wants to say grace over the xmas meal it aint going to kill you to bow your head for 1 minute out of the year.

Happy Holidays because I live in a secular country

I was raised protestant. Imho, it would be better if people who thought that it was somehow their responsibility to chide others learned how to mind their own business.
Thanks for sharing, homie.
He was the worst example of one. The ather one was lovely though! Funny thing was the tech guys were super nice, relaxed, and gentle with everyone. There was a Christian lady accountant and they were nice to her. But I guess they'd asked the guy a million times, nicely, to keep his aggressive beliefs out of their workday. And then there was a bunch of drinking, the cards came out, he started lecturing and...justice league. I'd never played that game before, I was in shock haha.
But yeah. If someone wishes me a happy or merry or festive or joyful anything in this life, I'm just glad they're friendly.
Lol cards against humanity is amazing. Especially when you play with people who don't know the deal.
