In Reality It Should Be Called The Season of Commercialization

See my new page.  Love it.  Yes. You. Do.  We can thank my bestie, Shop Girl for that.  The snow falling makes me VERY happy.  I may stay on my own page all day to just block out all the stupidity I am surrounded by during this holiday season. 

This year, I love candy canes, twinkling lights, snowmen, angel napkin rings, nutcrackers, reindeers, and fancy Father Christmases.  I hope it snows.  Like now.  In all this beauty, some of you are trying to piss all over it. 
See I believe this time a year should be flooded with people being nice.  Just be nice.  Really fucking nice… maybe even merry, perhaps even a little jolly, BUT we’re not being merry or jolly.  In fact, we come up with ninety-nine thousand reasons to be assholes and to hate each other. 

I will only say this once, so please follow along closely.  Stop bitching about things that will not improve or destroy the quality of our society.  I don’t care if you call your tree a Holiday tree or a Christmas tree or that fucking tree with all the shit on it.  In the big picture, it doesn’t matter.  So both sides, shut the fuck up.  I’ll call mine a Christmas tree, primarily because that’s what I’ve always called it, but it does not bother me one iota if you call yours a Holiday tree.  We both know what the other is talking about, so everyone Shut the Hell Up about it. 

Stop saying bring the Christ back in Christmas (parades, trees, cards, presents, parties, etc).  No one ever took the Christ out of any of these things.  If it’s what you believe in, it will always be there.  The title on a sign won’t, nor should it, change that for you.  Don’t engage in these senseless discussions.   Witnessing it is fucking up my Christmas/Holiday/Hanukkah mojo.  Although I didn’t know Jesus personally, I believe he would want you to occupy your time with something more productive.  Like goodwill towards man.  All men.  No matter what they believe or don’t believe.  Don’t say “it’s sad.” Sad?  What’s sad is that every city has foster homes/centers that are overrun with abused and neglected children, and there will probably never be enough homes to put them in, nor enough people that really care.   Calling it Christmas Parade will not change their situation. At. All.  NOW that’s sad and unfortunate and a cause I can readily hop on board.
You call it what you want to call it- Holiday/Christmas, and we’ll all still know what you’re talking about.  Let’s just stop telling each other what to call it.  K?  If a city or company or organization decides it works best for them to call it Holiday, you can still call it Christmas.  Again, we’ll all know what you’re talking about.  If anyone gives you flack, send them to this post, and it should clarify the situation… provided they have two and half a brain cells. 

So I’m signing Christmas cards right now, and some of them may say “Merry Christmas,” some may say “Happy Holidays,” and others might say “Seasons Greetings.”  You’ll know what I was trying to convey, and you’ll be happy and thankful that your friend took time to wish you well —or you won’t get another Christmas card from me.  I will not lose a moments sleep, nor waste another breath on this discussion or thought.  I’m trying to have a spectacularly positive holiday season, and anyone who stands in my way will be cut from my team.  Or you can just cut me from yours.  That’s fine too.  As long as the senseless negativity is out of my sight.
