Merry @#$% Whatever!

It's been a while since my last post, and for good reason: there really was nothing to write and/or think about. I've been really disappointed by the news lately and lack of really interesting current events so I was on sort of a boycott. But, something has caught my attention and it's this friggin' debate about what to say to people at this time of year. Is it "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays?" When The Daily Show and The Colbert Report picked up on this heated debate, I knew something was up. What do you think?

I think:
Since nothing is happening of great significance in the world today (and we're so numb to the War in Iraq), people are bored and they need something to fight about. And of course, it only makes sense to fight about how to wish someone something nice during this time of year. A poll conducted by the Indystar.com (Indiana's no. 1 local media site), says the "Merry Christmas" outweighs "Happy Holidays" by nearly 30%. Guess this gives conservatives the ammunition to threaten lawsuits that store clerks should say "Merry Christmas." Frankly, I'd like to tell all the dumb asses who are up in arms about this to drink your damn egg nog and shut up! It's bad enough that I get barraged everywhere I go with ads to "BUY, BUY, BUY" and get Santa Claus crammed down my throat right after Halloween. Now I've got to deal with a bunch of whiners who bitch about this?!? Let's just all say, "MERRY @#$% WHATEVER!"
