'Happy Holidays' is just another insidious volley in the War on Christmas, which is itself a small skirmish in the larger War Against All that Is Good White and Christian, and is being waged by the liberals and their demon spawn.

This is the first time in my life I will not be home for Christmas.  For me it just feels like another day.  I will miss getting stheinfaced this year.  Last year I drank from about 7pm until 530am X-mas morning.  I vomited in my sleep and my Dad came in the room and took my shoes off for me. 

I was still wasted opening gifts whatever time that was in the afternoon.  It was definately one of my finer performances.

Close to my perception, too, but instead of it just being a war on Christmas, it's a PC tool as to not offend someone in the minority.

farg the minority, and Merry Christmas.

For crying out loud, I made a light-hearted joke.  If anyone is sanctimonious around here, it's you.  You preach your faith (and yes, atheism is your faith) louder than any pentacostal faith-healer I've ever heard.

As a history teacher, and a somewhat sentimental fool, I think about people in my life during the Christmas holidays, especially my grandparents.  Even though my grandparents have been gone for many years now, the memories are as fresh as they were on the day they died.

One of my hobbies is to write bad poetry.  Mostly it's used to get "in like flint" with Mrs. Geowhizzer, but I like to write poems for other occasions as well.  Below is one I wrote two years ago for the Christmas holiday.

The Old Photograph

I pick up an old, graying photograph
Taken so many years ago
You were still young
Looked forward to life
That Christmastime of '41

The world had changed just weeks before
The country had gone to war
You did your job
And served your nation
Like your parents had done before

The war now done, you settled down
Never lived in luxury
You went to work
And kept up your house
While raising your new family

The years rushed past like summer storms
Grandkids now part of your life
Spoiled us rotten
You were there for us
Like that Christmas so long ago

Too soon, you were taken from us
Called home, for you work was done
To see friends gone
Now rejoined in death
We'll see you one Christmas to come

One more look at that old picture
Antiqued youth and faded smiles
I can't but think
Seeing your faces
You were loving me all the while.

I love using Christmas as a way to farg with my kids and get them to do shtein that they normally give me a hard time about...... 

Do the dishes or Santa isn't coming.

Clean your room or Santa will put coal in your stocking.

Bring me a beer or Santa will slit your throat when you're sleeping. 

What a great farging holiday.

Not just the greatest x-mas movie ever, one of the best comedies.

"Tis the season to be Merry!"

"Thats my name."

"No Shtein"

Unfortunately I have not been able to find a copy of that over here, just isn't Christmas without it.

I bought my kids all 3 Guitar Hero games for playstation and 2 wireless guitars.  After 6 hours of playing I've learned 2 important things.

1.  I never want to hear "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" by Pat Benatar ever again.  It's the only song out of all 3 games that my daughters wanted to play. 

2.  I do in fact, know how to rock as evidenced by my near perfect scores.  Especially when "Mississippi Queen" by Mountain comes on.

Same - almost.  My kids got the GHIII for Wii, and:

1. Our already-played out song is "Talk Dirty To Me"
2. I am a rock god.  I went glam 80's metal for the career mode, and I'm making all kinds of cash and getting blown by random women who are complete strangers.  The wife is a little miffed, but I keep telling her it's her fault for marrying a rock star.

I picked up Portal off Steam for Christmas, and it put me in a capitalizing mood. Been days now, and I still haven't finished downloading the damn thing. Still, beats spending $90 here for The Orange Box, especially when I own most of it already.

I always thought that Happy Holidays meant Christmas and New Years combined. After reading this thread I find out it's part of the "culture war" as marketed to those who'll buy the books. Who knew?

Oh dreidel dreidel dreidel I made it out of clay...

Happy Christmas Chanukah bitches!

Kwanza too!

Technically, Christmas wasn't a real holiday until shopping malls were invented. 
Title: Re: Happy Holidays
Post by: Phanatic on December 30, 2007, 12:38:35 PM
Actually Christmas was "invented" to allow the different pagan cultures throughout Europe to assimulate to the Catholic Church. There was much debate over the span of several hundred years as to what the day should actually be. Meaning that no one really knows when Christ was actually born. Not that any of that matters. the spirit of the holiday is actually good if a bit over commercialized in our time.

Now Santa's current incarnation was invented by the department stores and shopping malls.
Title: Re: Happy Holidays
Post by: Diomedes on December 30, 2007, 01:24:26 PM
And by Coca Cola.

The best thing that ever happened to Christmas was the commercialization.  There is nothing wrong with buying presents for your friends and family.  It's a much better thing to be generous with the ones you love than to make a spectacle of your god worship.

The list of things the dog has pissed on:
- The cat. (x3)
- A visiting friend who was ignoring her. (Crotch)
- The landlord's friend. (Face)

I'm sure she would gladly urinate on your children, though. She's such a good girl.

Well, I'm not drunk enough to agree to that.  Still, if you can keep her in check, I'm sure I could book a flight from O'Hare which could get to Boston before midnight.  Hold off on ED2 until I get there........

I drank heavily as soon as I got home from work (4pm or so), fell asleep once at 10, woke up at 10:30, fell back asleep at 11:40 or so for good.  Whatever.

I did see Seacrest ask Mike Bloomberg if he's running for President (he's not) and the first words from Dick Clark.  Dude seriously needs to get off the TV and get brain surgery or something.

I drank till 5 am, then passed out.  I woke up around 10am and my shoulder was not all the way in socket. 

Yesterday i started drinking when i woke up.  Took an Ambien so i would get back to sleep at a normal time.  Ambien makes you feel like your tripping.  I was seeing all types of crazy shtein.
