Because this country has become a bunch of overly sensitive assholes who are not only offended by everything, they actively look for things they can claim offends them.

Shitty people look for some semblance of control in their otherwise shitty lives. They get a power trip by forcing a minimum wage employee to change how they greet you. It's quite sad, and I honestly pray for people like that.

Pisses me off when a see someone say happy holidays. 80% of those people actually celebrate Christmas and are chicken shite scared to piss off the PC police.

I say it to everyone, even if I´m pretty damned sure it´s not something which pertains to them.

It's BS. If you can't say marry Christmas don't participate in any of it.

Because the frickers are too cheap to have to buy gifts for anybody and they try to make everyone else as miserable as their asses are.

I guess you could classify me as atheist and I don't have a problem saying merry Christmas. People are just bitches these days.

You people...

fricking get over it already. Someone is attempting to be kind to you, don't take it as an affront to your personal beliefs.

Or maybe they just want to say Happy Holidays because it's a a common greeting and finding a way to get pissed off at that is ridiculous

I have never once met somebody who got upset with me for saying merry christmas. Part of this may be because I live in Louisiana, but I also suspect that it is at least in part a myth created by paranoid fox news types to sow faux outrage which is a special kind of ironic, funny, and pathetic. Or I could be off base with that one.

I've never met anyone who is offended by "Merry Christmas." Those people only exist in the minds of Fox News and its viewers.
