I came to this conclusion the other day - I work in retail and they tell us to say Happy Holidays, I did that for about twenty minutes before I just said fuck it.
I'm not wishing you Merry Christmas to be an asshole or say I'm superior with my holiday and my beliefs, fuck that and fuck you for being an over sensitive fuck - I'm saying it because I sincerely mean that I want you to be happy. How shitty is it that I can't say what I'm most comfortable with saying because someone might get their panties all twisted in a bunch?
;alskjfa;slkfjasdfsa f That makes me so damned mad. ITS A WELL WISH DAMNIT, TAKE IT FOR WHAT IT IS DONT SKEW IT AND MAKE IT ANOTHER SOURCE FOR THE DRAMA.
Geezus.
Can you tell that whole thing kind of ticks me off?
I just like Happy Holidays better because not everyone celebrates Christmas. I feel bad for those that celebrate Hanukkah or any other holiday that isn't associated with Christ.
Although I do say Merry Christmas sometimes, I just like to say happy holidays so that it includes everyone.

I live in Australia and no-one says Happy Holidays. Always Merry Christmas.

You should say "Happy <insertwhateveryoucelebratehere>" And if you don't celebrate anything, just be glad someone wished you a happy day
If someone came up to me and said "Happy Hannukah!" I'd say "Thanks you too!" or "And Merry Christmas to you!" I don't see why people have a problem with someone else wishing them well.

i feel like, as long as you go out of your way to wish someone a Merry Christmas, then they should shut the hell up and be honored you wasted your breath on them and not be angry just because it was correct.
yeah, it's kind of strange people are enraged about how they don't get the correct holiday greeting when all it is is someone being friendly enough to wish you well - don't look a gift horse in the mouth, so to speak.
that's true, but i feel like if someone takes the time to stop and wish them well on the holidays, it shouldn't really matter what greeting they used - it's not intended to be offensive or malicious.

Fuck, I dropped the F bomb.
Especially when you consider that Happy Holidays is nothing more than slang for "Happy Holy Day(s)." Which isn't exactly PC either. XD

I am one of the many that will shamelessly proclaim my faith. I am a Christian. I ask only that you respect that.
