Merry Christmas to you, as well

OK, a new weird for MOL, virtually no Christmas threads at all. Nobody found this weird? Yes, I edited my original post, as I had heard some rather bad news regarding a passing of a good friend last night, which always sucks a bit more during Christmas, and I was blowing off a little steam (not the first time), but I was just surprised nobody wished anyone a Merry Christmas. I'm used to overly sensitive PC stuff around here for many years, just found this majorly weird. If you wish to castigate me for this, go ahead, I won't be checking in on this thread anymore. And to all a good night.

Meh. It's not that I'm PC. I'm just Jewish.

I don't get it, why would you think anyone posting or not would have anything to do with PC or un?

So our choices are display our Christmas spirit by posting here or poison ourselves? So much for the joy of Christmas.

There were 2 attempts at Christmas threads (one started by our friend in Australia), besides mine, but that was it. Jesus Christ (yeah, I said it), are you serious? People are more worried about recycling, where to get rid of used electronics and being pissed off at Comcast than Christmas. Perhaps this is one major reason I don't post much around here anymore. Here, let me go un-PC, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! For those that are offended by that, go drink a pint of bleach.

... is that why I just don't understand this type of Merry Christmas thing?

um, I was busy, ya know? Cooking for the family, opening presents, and so forth. Then I was just plain exhausted. Hate to say it, but MOL was just not much on my mind yesterday. I suspect others might have been doing the same.

But if you wish to be offended about it, I can't stop you.

Deffie dear, and family,

A) hope your festivities continue brightly! You're certainly a bunch who know how to celebrate and cherish each other!

B) I was worried I was being a bit too busy for a non-local, so stayed away for most of the time... That pic above is something to stick in one of our albums, though!! smile

There's some big community-rebuilding stuff going on that's grabbing my attention. Please don't take silence as disinterest or shunning. Wishing you an outrageously successful 2016,

J and her non-foodie partner, D
