Happy Holidays vs. Merry Christmas

I don’t care that much either way, unless Kanye starts rapping “Away in a F-Ing Manger no room for Kim’s abs.” (It was abs, right?)
I think context is important to consider. I was at a memorial this weekend for a non-religious Jewish friend. Last to speak was her house cleaner from 30-40 years ago, who took more time than anyone else to talk and basically said “Be sure to accept Jesus into your heart before you die or you will be in trouble.” WTF???

You mean like ending the TV special celebrating the 50th anniversary of A Charlie Brown Christmas by wishing everyone Happy Holidays?
Thoughtless.

hilarious. If you didn’t have a reputation for awesome stories, I’d think you pulled this out of an episode of Seinfeld. Marta is crazy.

If you are wished Happy Holidays, does that mean your holidays can’t be happy??
Would a trigger warning help??

I didn’t see it, and even if I had, I probably wouldn’t have noticed it. Did they say “Merry Christmas” in the original?
(I did DVR it for the kids, but I haven’t watched it yet. MNF took priority.)
