Correction--it is Chanukkah.
No, wait, Kwanza.
No, wait, New Year's Day!

Therefore, by your logic, since less than 1/3rd of the world lives in Christian
countries, and God knows not all of them are Christian, your Holiday does not
exist! YOU are the minority bucko!
Also, should I be the first person to point out that this "about 85%" is
another one of those "Sounds right to me therefore I will post it" percentages?

I don't remember voting on the subject. Should a vote come up, it is certain I
will vote it 'Happy Holidays".
No scratch that--I will vote it as, "Hot Chicks Give Blowjobs To Everyone" day.

How about we tell you to go fuck yourselves instead, you jew and black and
agnostic and muslim and hindu and shinto hating bastards?
No, that would make us intolerant as you. I think a better course of action is
you wish us the wish you want, and we will wish you the wish we want.
Hey! Check it out! That is what already happens!
> Nobody is trying to insult you with a "Merry

And no one is insulting you by you wishing you a Happy Holiday.
Oh, wait, that is right--you feel insulted because it is yet another reminder
than most people don't believe as you do.

See above. Pot. Kettle. Black.

Aye matey! Those miscreant advertisements are indeed a vexing lot!

They appear to be just sitting in their rack. Are they supposed to do flips or
something?

That is because it is after Christmas, and yet there are still Holidays coming
up. Can't have a post-holiday sale less than a week before a major holiday!

Check the store closings--they are "Closed for Christmas", as that is the
particular day they are closed for.

You know, Boortz, you would think with Jesus having died such an agonizing
death, and thus having earned you the eternal joy of His presence for all
eternity, you'd be a lot less petty about all this shit. Whadda matta bunkey?
Virgin birth and resurrection and salvation not good enough for ya?
YEE-HAW!!!! FOUR MORE YEARS!!!! This is gonna be better than Spike TV!
