F "Happy Holidays"!

If you want to get all deep about it then you can easily twist it the other way into a positive.

For example. A Christian wishing a Hindu merry Christmas could be construed as "even though we celebrate differently you are no different to me than my own family/friends." I see it as a way to branch out.

It's like somebody getting pissed off because you made them chocolate chip cookies instead of oatmeal raisin. Just be happy somebody cares enough to make you cookies.

The political correctness crap is annoying as hell. People are way to sensitive. Spend energy on poo like discrimination or civil rights. Not season's greetings.

I haven't celebrated a single winter holiday ever BTW. I guess the best word for me is agnostic. When my brother got married we started exchanging gifts since it's much smoother to start than to quit.

The only bad memories I have about Christmas were when I was a little kid being singled out for exposing the Santa Claus lie. Kids all ganging up on me about it with teacher doing nothing to save her own ass. Or my music teacher assuming I was Jewish. That was an annoyance but I didn't feel discriminated against.

I agree. People spend way too much time being upset about some imaginary war on a holiday. ;)

let people, mainly businesses, greet people however they want. If it'll help a biz make money, let them say "praise the ice god maru" if they want.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
