Col goes off on another rant about how Jesus wasn't born on December 25th and the Christians stole a pagan holiday.

Is he preaching the TRUE meaning of Christmas then?

... there's a book called You Know It's Christmas When that might actually be purchased.

...claustrophobic people avoid shopping malls like the plague.

...your money disappears to buy everybody else presents and all you end up with is another pair of "funny" underwear.

...people decide a tree with plenty of flammable or fragile objects on it is the perfect decoration to have indoors.

... your significant other includes product placement during conversations to ensure you are purchasing the correct gifts.

It's not a rant. It's factual.

Anyway, I can't see what the fuss is about. Celebrating a fairy tale make believe characters' birthday seems a bit balmy to me. You may as well celebrate the birth of your Micky Mouse.

That's MICKEY, and we do!!

I'm not surprised - Micky is more popular than Jesus.

I would only hope so. I'm sure he makes more in sales. The religious are too busy paying out in molestation lawsuits.

Yes, do lets. How about Frodo's birthday as well? Or Mr. Potter's?

 

[Vassago]

And since they use a different calendar in Middle Earth, we can screw up his birthday as well.

Count your blessings - in the Philippines, the pap starts when the month has a 'ber' in it it, so they have to put up with it for four months!

Are you saying there was no such person named "Jesus" that all this fuss is about?

 

[oumahexi]

You see people stock piling bread in the supermarket! I've seen them buying up to ten loaves, well the shops are shut for a day

 

[RCheesley]

Heh, just buy flour and make my own .. much nicer and you can't beat the smell of fresh bread in the morning
