Happy Holidays

I hope to earn my place on Bill O'Falafel Vibrator's blacklist by saying "happy holidays" instead of "happy christmas." For Muslims, Jews, Sikhs, Buddhists and others, the Christmas holidays do not (entirely) coincide with any of their own religion's holidays. Non-Christians may be forced to work when their own religion requires a holy day of rest and not be allowed to work during Christmas. Even worse is to expect them to think of their enforced holiday as christmas by wishing them happy christmas.

So for those who think of this time of year as Christmas, rather than an opportunity for shops to sell us garbage we give to others who don't have any use for it and who feel obligated to do the same to us...

This is the true origin of most of the symbolism that appears at Christmas, hijacked (as was Easter) by Christianity.

Enjoy your drink of hallucinogenic reindeer's piss, and may you climb the world tree...
