If you actually used that capitalization, then you're a loser.

Man y’all have really wore this shite out y’all love to get mad about stuff that people will “probably” get mad. You want the attention so bad you are HOPING that people give you some negative reaction so that you can get jerked off by your poli board buddies

No, you should say whatever you want. People are always getting offended.

Yeah I feel like I should clarify to some of our slower friends that the CHRISTmas spelling is what's unprofessional. Merry Christmas itself is more than fine, hell I sent an email with it about fifteen minutes ago

Very slim, but I sense that you are already worked up and ready to be offended as hell based on nothing more than the hope/anticipation that someone will take offense.

A true patriot and hero in the War on Christmas. You may get a medal.

OMG they are stealing the holiday we stole.

I wonder which group will be the next to think they own the winter solstice holiday.

Exactly. If you go to church, the other 95% of the ways in which we celebrate Christmas are completely rooted in Pagan origins.

And it's ironic how, during a season that's supposed to be one of generosity and sharing, one group wants to claim sole ownership of it.

But to the OP, literally no one is going to be offended. But I bet you'll be nice & butthurt if someone utters "Happy Holiday" to you.

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

If you actually typed it like "CHRISTmas" then you are just looking for a fight.

Me, too. Don't understand why so many people can't just go to work and leave their baggage at home.

No one cares if you say Merry Christmas. I will say back most of the time because I’m not a dick and it’s a pretty secular holiday anyway. Y’all seem to get more worked up that big box businesses want to court more customers by switching to Happy Holidays.

We have a winner. People hoping others get offended because they're offended.

1. No rational person of any religion or lack thereof will be offended by this

2. Again, assuming he typed CHRISTmas instead of Christmas, it's very obvious bait. It's not offensive, it's just childish.
