 Posted: Thu, 22nd Dec 2005 23:52 Post subject: Apparently saying "Merry XMAS" is like saying fuck |
|
 |
I don't know if anyone has noticed all this controversy over happy holidays vs merry christmas. I had no idea just how out of control this was getting, I did find it strange when I was watching a commercial and people were around a CHRISTMAS tree with CHRISTMAS decorations and SANTA CLAUS stockings handing presents over and saying haopy holidays.
What the fuck is wrong with this country[USA]?! I don't know what it's like in other countries if this whole being politically correct phrase is being pushed on everyone. I read that even some school was punishing students for saying merry christmas. I can't stand it. How about I say FUCK YOU to you PC people!
If I say merry christmas to someone and they say that they don't celebrate it but something else. Ill kindly correct it. Stop being so GODDAMN FUCKING OFFENDED. Good god. It's so agrivating!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
There how about that? Are you offended?

I hope you realise that you are one of those few people.
And just why would people be offended if you say merry christmas to them? They should be glad that you wish them a happy holiday, namely, christmas.

You know you can love your country without being naive right?

That you don't love your country? Which is understandable.

Oh no, you got it all wrong mate... I do indeed love my country, but im also aware of my surroundings and try to open my eyes and not let everything go to my head without a 2nd thought.
I was referring to you as being extremely naive and you should think about that before making any further accusations agaisnt others.

( accusations against others ) that goes both ways. It is hil-harry-ass how you blame America for the worlds problems, and anyone who disagrees with your crap is stupid.

No not at all, I respect other people's opinions.. And I also truly respect yours, I just dont think USA is the greatest country in the world or the most peacefully in both foreign/Intern affairs.
Please just think about some of the things you see/hear on this forum instead of spitting all those things out..
And please give me a reminder on "America behind all the worlds problems", Since I can't recall typing that :S

This is what happens to countries where nothing really bad happens for a long time. People start to get bored and they start to get offended - by everything. You nearly cant do shit nowadays without anyone being offended. God I hate this word "offended". Goddamn PC.
Back when there was the great Depression people had to actually do something to get along. Not only the USA, the whole western civilization needs something very bad like a huge catastrophe that brings people together again and shows what life really is about.

I never noticed any of this politically correct nonsense, I used to say it anyways just get all the possible things in there "I don't celebrate christmas" so happy holidays, it's not about offending or not offending, I say merry christmas all over the place, but it's happy holidays as the casual one, I never really paid it any attention.
I've never called my tree a holiday tree, I'm not sure where that came from. 
YourGod is correct I think, you guys just love to pick apart every little tiny little American this or that so you can all jump on and bash us all, it's pretty sad, but if it makes you feel better go for it.
Maybe you should pity us we don't live in your perfect countries.

Seriously eh? Thats fuckin retarded.
U know whats even funnier? The fact that (assuming Christ is real) Christ was from the mideast would indicate that he isnt white. Maybe light skinned, but not white for sure.
I saw something on the Discovery Chan one time on this. a buncha scientists took what they know about the mideast from that time period - what ppl liked, how they dressed, what common features did they have, what they ate etc etc
and based on that information and the information about Christ in the bible, they came up with a 3d rendered model of what christ would most likely look like - a chubby (not fat, just meat on him), long bearded/hair guy that has a complextion a lilttle lighter than Saint.
Maybe The Saint is really jesus....maybe thats why he uses the name he does  
I have a question, to anyone who can answer. What the fuck does "X-Mas" mean?
Ive always assume it was internet lingo. Instead of writing Christmas all the time, it was cut down to "Xmas" - like Laughing Out Loud is LOL.
The term Christmas atleast has some signifigance, whether you believe in the religious overtones or not. But what the fuck does "Xmas" signify?
