A lot of natives aren’t linked to the foreign cult of Christianity.

Plenty of Chrimbo trees in Dubai so relax there.

Anyway fck Christmas. It declared war on our native midwinter celebrations.

Revenge is a dish best served cold!! :pac:

Ancient Celts didn’t really have mid winter celebrations. The main celebrations were mid solstice.

I don't really care if someone says Happy Holidays or Christmas or Saturnalia, I'll just take whatever good wishes are coming my way in the spirit of kindness they're intended.

I don't know why people have an issue with how it's worded when it's the intent that really matters.

Some people just love a good moan

Since Cadbury are responsible for vast majority of most revolting chocolate available around Christmas (and Easter) their greetings are the least offensive part.

It isn't Cadbury's that's the problem. It's Mondelez

Some place in the States there's a sky scraper cubicle farm and you have people with whiteboards, excel sheets and powerpoint presentations carefully coming up with the optimum volume of chocolate per package as a profit maximising strategy in the hope that b1tch running it will give them a promotion so they can buy a new Cadillac next year.

Mondelondelez! Cadbury's is long dead, sold out and their former owners partying in the Bahamas till their funds or days run out.

I will never not say Merry Christmas, regardless of who I'm saying it to. If they get offended by my well wishes then I'll say "OK I take it back, have a terrible Christmas".

Christ some people are so f'in sensitive.

There are numerous religious holidays around December, they are trying to get money out of as many people as possible. Cadbury's is an international brand... get over it.

The thing is no one actually gives a shíte about this kind of crap but civil liberty and other wacko groups decide that people don't like it or are offended and make a fuss but in reality they don't actually represent anyone other than themselves. The media then drive these nonsense type stories claiming outrage etc etc when no one was actually outraged or gave a shíte about it.

Reminder saved :pac:



I like to think that in 12 years time I'll get this reminder and think, "what the f*ck is this about?"
