The look on their faces as they see the mountain of 'holiday' presents piled high, underneath the undecorated 'holiday' tree.

The joy at the knowledge, that Father Holiday has not forgotten them.

The magic and wonder that is 'holiday day'.

you make me laugh...!!!!!!!!!!

you LOL literally by Laughing Out Loud, like when I read it, I laughed. haha, now I'm LOLing again.

Yea, political correctness is a bitch. It should go back to where it came from.

im pro "merry christmas". im sorry but fuck political correrectness when their taking away an age-old tradition. "happy holidays" just makes it sound like a generic, unimportant occasion while in reality its the most special time of the year. if people of a different creed or race want to piss and moan about it because it conflicts against their beliefs they should go back to their own bloody country. and that isnt a racist comment, its called using logic.

Thats only if you're christian. Surely.
I bet people who aren't 'christian' and have really strong beliefs for their own religion don't like saying 'merry christmas'
but, i think 'happy holidays' sounds american. & I don't want to sound american. I'm english.

Sorry if this makes no sense. Im very tired.

christmas is a christian holiday though. how can they rob a faith of its sacred occasion just because they dont agree with it?

Even if it is. Half the people celebrating it dont care about jesus and christmas has turned into something totally not christian.
Sinces its barely a christmas holiday why bitch?
Even if it is christmas you still have holiday and holi = holy.
Just as bad.
