i'm so sick of christians that are so narrow-minded, self-centered and ignorant that they get offended when someone says "happy holidays" instead of "merry christmas".
seriously. i can't even begin to express how pathetic that is.
for one thing, NO ONE RELIGION owns the holiday season! in fact, no one religion even invented the holiday season! if it weren't for the pagans, christmas wouldn't even be on dec 25th. and then what about the people who celebrate hanukkah, winter solstice, nothing at all, kwanzaa, yule, etc etc? you have to be seriously fucked up to actually be offended that not everyone in the world shares your same exact belief system.
and for another thing, even if the phrase "happy holidays" is said between two christians who both celebrate christmas, it's probably because there's more than one holiday in the season. thanksgiving + christmas + new years = MORE THAN ONE HOLIDAY.
so, HAPPY FUCKING HOLIDAYS, regardless of what you believe.
