MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!

Unread post by Vrede too »

My Festivus two days ago was brilliant. My Festivus pole was polished to a sparkle, I aired many grievances and engaged in some rather lame feats of strength. My pipes did not freeze, it was a true Festivus miracle!

So, in the spirit of the season, "I got a lotta problems with you people, and now you're going to hear about it!"

In most of the UK, and including Canada, today is recognized as "Boxing Day." Contrary to some claims, it is not the day people traditionally box up their Christmas decor, but began in Victorian England when it was traditional to give out boxes of stuff to the servants and other poor. There has been some recent push, however, in the sake of inclusiveness and non-discrimination to refer to the day as "Containers of Any Sort" Day.

:D "Tupperware Day" didn't do well with the focus groups.

Except with the Tupper Indians, who were denied a patent and never paid for the use of their name.

Merry Christmas, all.
Some apparently think we are "allowed" to say that only because of Trump. (sigh)

Enjoy the day!
We reserve the Merry Christmas and Festivus celebrations until the 26th. The 25th is Mrs. Billy.p's Birthday day.

Happy Birthday, mrs pilgrim, and Merry Christmas to the pilgrim household! Were there animals, wiseguys and a little drummer boy in her manger?

FYI, Festivus is 12/23, just sayin'.
