A Thread for Every Season!
« on: 23 Dec 2014, 16:21 »

Heya!

I felt like the forums lacked a thread where we can give each others good wishes and happiness during seasonal holidays and/or days of spiritual/religious/national importance.

For example! It is Christmas Eve tomorrow.

Merry Christmas, forums.

Zero gifts have been wrapped, I think I'm just gonna go up to people and be like, "here you go, fucker". They can't get mad, they're getting free stuff.

Four hour drive one-way in a few hours. Snow has been falling since before I got up, apparently.

That's classic. I think my presents were wrapped by my mother, but I personally wouldn't have given a single fuck. Not with the size of the stuffed cow my sis is getting at least.

It is Christmas morning, the sun is shining, the cicadas are singing, and it's forecast to reach 30C. It's a very Sydney Christmas.

Merry Christmas all!  and a Happy New Year to those who prefer to celebrate that. 

I started my Yule-tide celebrations last weekend by going to a Hanukkah party with some friends.

I think if one were to make that joke, a video of Lennox Lewis highlights would be more fitting, since he is British-Canadian.

Well Ali is the world champion and a legend in the world wide sport which, last I checked, covers Canada.

I'd say Happy Kwanzaa, but it's a safe bet that nobody here celebrates Kwanzaa.

Now, there isn't a solid demographic count of this forum, but why be so quick to assume?

It's a running joke, even amongst the demographic most likely to celebrate Kwanzaa that absolutely nobody does.  IIRC, even many of the folk who *do* celebrate it make that joke.
