TC Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Its Christmas, Happy Christmas. The reason we have a holiday in December is because its Christmas. Nothing more, nothing less.Happy Holidays gets on my tits. So this year every product that is advertised with Happy Holidays I'm going to Boycott for a year.The Jack Daniels advert. They build a Christmas tree out of barrels decorate it like a Christmas tree then say the only present to have under the tree is a JD. WTF does the present symbolise ???? Where do they think the idea of giving presents at Christmas comes from For that reason Jack Daniels is on my boycott listIf you hear any others please add them to the list.Jack Daniels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Although for 95% of the population in this country, "Christmas" celebrations have almost nothing to do with Christmas. Hence, "Holidays".Add to your boycott list anything containing "Xmas", 'cause it's pike-on-a-bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratser Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 And as Christmas, people should be worshipping rather than worrying about giving and receiving presents.With it not being a holiday if you don't believe or worship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bex Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 And as Christmas, people should be worshipping rather than worrying about giving and receiving presents.With it not being a holiday if you don't believe or worship. for some of us its not a holiday anyway, next time your out at the bar guys n gals offer the bar person a drink, they will love you all night, nothing worse than being treated as a skivy thivk shit by a pissed up xmas partyer when its cos of the bar staff they are able to be having a good time. and back on the tv thing, you always know xmas is coming by the increase in perfume and watch adds, like xmas is the only time people think about telling the time lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont believe or worship, but as its time off work its most certainly a holiday tbh I would swap the days off for free choice holidays.

Invented it and them stole all the fun bits from pagans to spice up their rather drab and unsupportable tales. I'll have my winter solstice, my holiday and not indulge in praise or lobotomised purchasing frenzy. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 ... some random tools invented a story about immaculate conception ... If you're referring to Jesus being born of a virgin, then that's not the immaculate conception. If you weren't then my apologies... I'm on a mission to stop people saying 'immaculate conception' when they mean virgin birth! I'm not sure why. Maybe it makes me feel clever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iWannaGoFast Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Forgive my use of the word xmas, I had a curry in one hand, keyboard in the other. Walking down the Parade in Leamington today, people just mindlessly wandering, others with a mission, neither of them see you coming until you've walked into them. And people in shops putting their 8 million bags down in the middle of a tight aisle and not noticing me stood there staring at them.
