The only lie:
“no catalogs were harmed in the filming…”
This will never get old.

Smug and sort of self-pitying at the same time, as if filled with longing for a time when one could freely ignore other faiths, some of whom have access to twenty-dollar bills too and celebrate a season of giftgiving this time of year. Christmas commercialism runs roughshod over all sorts of things, including the spirit of Christmas itself, but this is the worst sort of confusion of economic leverage and religious sameness. Ick.

As if, indeed.
Because the mere act of printing “Merry Christmas” on a catalogue is some benighted act of religious supremacism. Sure.

The little boy at the end put it over the edge hysterical for me. Who can resist a precocious kid!

Nice. Very nice.

I don’t understand how sensibilities are offended by “Merry Christmas” being printed in a catalog.
Once I had a client in Saudi Arabia whom I needed to contact. I had to call him in the middle of the night to reach him in his office. One night before I called him, I noticed on my calendar that it was the end of Ramadan. When the call went to his voicemail, I left my message and concluded by wishing him a happy Eid ul Fitr. The next day when I checked my voicemail, he’d left me a message in which he was positively giddy that someone had wished him a happy Eid. It really didn’t hurt me at all to recognize someone else’s faith. I imagine if I’d lived in Saudi Arabia, I wouldn’t get too worked up about the lack of Merry Christmas wishes around me…

I think fullburn is on to something. Christmas is the time to send all those other faiths scurrying for cover, as Milton pictured the event. To make it clear, we could start our celebrations on Halloween.

I love it so much that I’m linking back to you! Merry Tossmas to you and yours!

LOL – JoAnn Fabrics has banners that say “Let’s Make Christmas Together!” (Kudos to them!)
Here’s how I’ll be thanking my customers on my last visit to their door before Christmas – Click here.
Peace,

PS: Merry Tossmas!

I live in India back there you got wished per holiday So during diwali we wished our Hindu friends happy Diwali and they wished us back happy Diwali. and at Christmas they wished us Merry Christmas and we wished them the same too along with taking them cakes and sweets etc. Dont you find it odd that in a predominantly Christian country like USA and Canada we are wished happy Holiday.

“If you’re going to make money off of our holiday, we’d appreciate it if you celebrated it with us!”
He’s got a point!

Amen. We have a "credit crunch" and a need for dissipation of debt — personal, government and corporate — that's WAY overdue, and healthy. Our materialistic, consumer-driven society (76% of GDP) has had a rude wake-up call the last 60 days. So has the world.

People who want the term “Christmas” shoved down our throats more than it already is in December are nothing but blatant proselytizers. The reason most retailers call it the “holiday” season rather than the “Christmas” season is because they make more money if they don’t discriminate like the religious bigot who made this video.
