Merry Christmas, Everybody (except you over there, with the face)

That guy is creeping me out.

I was away on Christmas so sorry that I missed all such merry messages while being off with actual tree actual gifts and actual Christmas dinner for the first time. Having experienced it, I actually think I prefer the Jewish version. The stores stay open, which is to say you don't make such a gigantic production out of it. People don't scramble to spend money they don't have to buy gifts they don't want to buy because they're afraid someone else is doing the same thing. They don't torture you with a month's worth of music - you'd be lucky to get a Chanukah in Santa Monica in my sandels lighting candles by the sea. Similar superiority is achieved in television, movies, books and other media avenues. So I say, instead of a Christmas Miracle I will happily settle for a Chanukah Happening. I need my miracles for when I'm working!
