Tell them you're pagan. Christmas is a holiday created by the church which coincided (ironically) with the Roman feast holiday of Saturnalia (Dec. 17-Dec.23) and from the reign of Emporer Aurelian on Dec. 25th 321CE erected a temple to Sol Invictus due to a greater interest of the Roman Empire in solar worship.

In addition the Nativity during those times was celebrated, traditionally, on January 6th-7th which was changed to the 25th of Dec. to usurp the old pagan Roman holiday.

OK Filth cover your ears.....

Hey guys did you hear that Filth broke into a couple of houses to get the uber Christmas presents his kids wanted?? They are so spoiled. He "told" me the reason he did it was because his mayor said it was OK to steal because he did it all the time....dirty politician. Don't tell Fith I told you all this, I want him to still think that I think he's an OK guy.

You can uncover your ears now Filth o'le buddy!!!:D

To spot the irony I would have to have knowledge of the racial makeup of the original poster. A bit of knowledge that can not be gained through the reading of a website forum.

Oh pet peeve #2

Not thinking through the logic of a witty forum post.

People who stupidly misunderstand what I post on a BB and then attack me for what I didn't say.

People who completely understand what I post and then attack me for what I did say, thus making me feel stupid.

In traffic, driving too slowly and not getting out of the way. Then flashing their lights at me when I do get past as if I had done something wrong.
