Sorry, I missed that.
Her reasons were simple, in her mind.
Short version of the lecture: She says that her family celebrates Christmas, and it isn't in their tradition to acknowledge any other holidays, and when people say "Happy Holidays", it only perpetuates the "intermixing" of holidays that have nothing to do with Christmas, which is what this time of year is for. For her and her family, and "America".
Again, while I didn't agree with any of the logic, and found flaws in it, I know well enough to know that it wasn't the time or place to jump on a soapbox.
I usually just say whatever comes to mind. I mean, I don't celebrate Christmas (at least not within family, with friends, I suppose I'm halfway in...nothing sexual.) but if someone says "Merry Christmas" to me, it's not like I'm all, "HEY! you take that bullshit back right this second!"

It is a good idea. That's why I bought a camcorder, Astroglide, and a bunch of splash shields.gut wrote: I thought this thread was going to be about buying porn for your girlfriend this Christmas

You would have to say "Merry Christmas you ignorant slut", or else she wouldn't acknowledge it.justincredible wrote: I would have called her an ignorant slut. But that's just me.
