Fuck off with your passive agressive bulllshit. Christmas is not under
attack by anyone, despite the fear mongerers you like to listen to.
Don't be such a whiny fucking child, for fucks sake, you belong to a
majority, you know it, yet you write bullshit like this?
Whah, whah whah, fuck off you bleating cow of a baby. Seriously,
Marty, for you to be seriously afraid that your core ideals were in
danger, and Christmas was being attacked, you'd HAVE to be on drugs.
Or under the influence of anti-Americans.
I'd like to say to grow a pair, but I'd mean a pair of grey cells. And
to learn to use them.
Seriously, I thought that bullshit from Faux was done with.
MY family went to Christmas Mass, WE didn't feel bothered, flustered,
inhibited or any sort of 'ed. And I HIGHLY EXPECT that neither did
you. That the ONLY things along this line you know about came from a
few *News* services. That were intended to get you riled up, and for
some reason you swallowed without a second thought. ( you Dumbshit)
But maybe we're just not sensitive enough for the average mid-
easterner? We're unable to feel your particular pain of having people
with different beliefs live within 500 miles of you.

Me too. I usually just say what I mean.
Merry Christmas to you.
If you don't celebrate Christmas, then this message wasn't intended for you.
Nunya Bidnits
No, YOU fuck off, you pathetic humorless ass.
Are you really so filled with hate and loathing that you cannot comprehend a
little tongue in cheek humor?
YOU dumbshit, have assumed I've read and been influence by some garbage that
some troll posted somewhere which in your utter scroogeness, you have
totally allowed to ruin anything and everything related to Christmas spirit.
You observe Christmas, but you have no concept of what it means, being
completely consumed by hate and anger.
I pity you.
Oh and let me just make a few closing points:
1. In case you didn't get it from what I wrote above, I was kidding. Get the
fuck over it and learn to understand and take a joke. If you couldn't figure
out from the first paragraph that the post was tongue in cheek, then you
really need to throttle yourself back in your urges to shit all over the
place before you have allowed time for someone else to help you understand
what you've read.
2. Learn what Christmas is about since you clearly have missed the point
entirely. It must be such a wondrous hate and venom filled holiday at your
house.
3. Learn the meaning of passive agressive if you're bound and determined to
throw the term around like that.
4. Figure out that just because you've been reading something that disturbed
you, it doesn't mean it affected someone else, or and assuming that other
people are reacting to something you've read, and even worse, simply
assuming that they read it at all, typifies why the spelling of assume is
parsed as you making an ass of u before me.
Merry Christmas anyway, Ebenezer.

Lol, nope. I went for their sake. Was raised kinda sorta Presber.
Just your normal wasp-y non practicing Christian in his cups and
pissed off at the dumb stuff our culture has been doing to itself.
Just that I am completely and utterly fed up to the brim with the
manufactured outrage being generated by segments of our media. It's
madness. But it takes two to tango, there wouldn't be any outrage if
people weren't blindly lapping it up.
Sorry for the tirade, and will STFU again, for a while anyway.
Hope everyone had a merry Christmas.

Well now, hold on a minute sir. I drive for a very large transit
authority here in San Jose, CA. Last year our bus headsigns, (the
sign that gives the destination of the route on the outside above the
front windshield and right side) had a code that we could enter on the
computer to show not only the destination but a greeting or other
message that could be seen by people on the road. One code for
example says "Go Sharks" or "Welcome Aboard." Anyway, there was a
code that when entered would spell out "Merry Christmas." It seems
the politically correct forces, maybe the ACLU, I don't know, objected
and this year it was eliminated. It was replaced with "Happy
Holiday." Because of the large population of foreign born people and
the diversity of religions it was thought that Merry Christmas was
inappropriate. So Merry Christmas is now history.

Me, too. I didn't think it was that subtle.... if it was I would have
probably missed it.
Hey Tutall... settle down over there!

I don't recall Marty whining about anything political on this forum.

Yanno, I say Happy Holidays sometimes, when I don't know what holidays a
mixed group celebrates, because it seems silly to me to extend them good
wishes for *my* holiday and not theirs. I have a lot of Jewish friends and
always say Happpy Channnukah to them, because that's what they are planning
to be happy about. It has zero zilch nada to do with any kind of dumbass PC
imperatives, and everything to do with a little common sense and courtesy in
the process of wishing that someone gets pleasure out of whatever it is that
they do. I figure it takes quite a bit of arrogance to suggest that someone
who celebrates some other way should enjoy my Christmas.
But that notwithstanding, yes, my comment was intended to be tongue in
cheek, although it seems from reading recent posts that my impression of my
own sublety may be excessive. ;-)

I think most of us knew that. For those that did not, sensitivity classes
may be in order.

Yah? Well, what about us Heathens? Why do you wish us Happy
anything? We just prefer to go along saying, "Bah, Humbug." What
about us? How about a, "Glum Holidays" to the group so us
Heathens are incorporated?
<grin> and all in fun for the humor impaired.

I'm an atheistic Buddhist. Been an atheist since '52, a Buddhist since
'56. I enjoy saying Happy Chanukkah and Merry Christmas.

My late departed good friend Carl Sutter CMSgt (USAF Ret)
decorated his house for the last ten years or so prior to his death
with a myriad of lights and a huge sign across the entire front of
the house at the second story level that read, "Bah Humbug". We
never actually discussed his choice of decorations, but if I was to
guess, I would say that CMSgt Sutter was a non-denominational
believer in everyone's right to celebrate as they please. I know for
a fact that his language did not include religious or ethnic slurs of
any kind. Rest in peace Carl, you're not going to be forgottten in
my lifetime.

Wow, Brick. Back in the mid 80's, when my son was pre teen, we
had a father-son project one November. I was a Mortgage Banker
and as you know, Scrooge was a "moneylender" also. My son and I
made a 30' long, 4' tall chicken wire sign that said the same
thing: Bah. Humbug. We did it in gold garland, inserted into
the chicken wire, then used about 2 dozen strings of lights to
make it really glow. The entire sign was hung from the second
story gutter of our house in IN and was a town-wide hit. After I
explained the sign, my background and connection to friends,
neighbors and the newspaper, it was considered fun.
We later returned to a more southern "religious" state and after
building our house, we bought 5 or six steel fence posts and put
the sign up out front, by the roadway. Within a few days, some
good religious type had torn it down and stomped it into the
ground. My son and I took it to the shop, restored it, replaced
the crushed lights and got it working. We returned it to the
bent-over fence posts and it looked great. It lasted almost until
Christmas, when it was again torn down and stolen, never to be
seen again.
Oddly, it was my son who balked at what I wanted to do. My plan
was to install a replacement sign on insulators, with the chicken
wire carrying 120v so we could learn who was tearing it down.
Now, after I'm calm and less violent, I respect his counsel.
