No, people do not freak out at Merry Christmas.None of those things offend anyone.
Some people freak at *gasp* Merry Christmas, I mean, seriously those people need to get help.
If the owners really wanted to strike a blow against PC they'd use real politically incorrect phrases. "We will call you ******, ****, faggot! And if you don't like it, leave!
But of course they aren't brave enough for that.
So what's all this rubbish with the "Happy Holidays" stuff then? How did that all come about? That's right, because "Merry Christmas" was considered "offensive" by a minority of bedwetters, and as we know, minority rules now....who cares what the majority thinks anymore
Personally I think the bedwetters problems began in early infancy, they probably weren't breastfed correctly.
Why does "Happy Holidays" upset you so much?
Personally- I don't care- Merry Christmas- Happy Holidays- Happy Hannukah- Happy Kwanza- Joyous Ramadan- I don't wig out by someone attempting to be polite.
Christmas is Christmas, yes it's I suppose in a way a "Holiday", but only because most people don't work and children are not at school, so it's not actually a "Holiday" in any other form.
So it's not a "Happy Holiday" therefore, Christmas is Christmas.
That doesn't explain why the term offends you.
Why do you choose to be offended by someone using that term- if they are attempting to be polite- and not trying to offend you?
Would you be as offended if someone wished you Happy Hannukah?
