Christmas. Hanukkah. Kwanzaa.
What do all of these events have in common?
There are there to spread love and joy to those close to you. This is an absolutely great concept…
… only to be ruined by people who want to be politically correct.
So, listen up. I have a few words for all of you.
“Happy Holidays” Zealots – Fuck you.
“Merry Christmas” Zealots – Fuck you too.
Seriously, everyday during the month of December I have to hear someone bitch, moan, and complain about people saying one phrase over the other.
Cut the shit. If you really have nothing better to do than try to correct someone for using one phrase over the other, then you need to rethink the priorities in your life because OBVIOUSLY you have too much time on your hands.
This goes for both sides of the spectrum.
Happy Holidays – Oh yay. You’re trying to be all ‘merica, land of the free, home of the brave. Place for all equal rights. etc. etc.
Yeah. I got that. Awesome. Except…
… no one cares. Read: Land of Equal Rights. As in “No one gives a flying fuck if you wanna be all melting pot. I say what I want.”
Merry Christmas – Ahh… my Christians. How I love thee.
Look, it takes less effort to just ignore the aforementioned “melting pot” assholes, than it does to try and counter them.
I, personally, find it simply amazing that this is the phrase that causes the most shit. Really!?
“God bless you”, “Lord be with you”, and “I’ll be praying for you” are all phrases that automatically assume one believes in God. And yet… “Merry Christmas” is the one that pisses everyone off.
If everyone just stuck to their own guns and didn’t give a shit about the religious and political views of others, the world would be a helluva better place.

As a side note, I vote we all just start saying Merry Christmahanukwanzaakkah and go on about our lives.
