Absolutely not. Those commercials should die and be erased from history. Let them fall into the inky black chasm of oblivion.
(I really hate those commercials.)
Merry Chrysler! :D
At the very least make it a Lexus December to Remember Sales Event!

Merry Crisis!

Merry Ymas!
People not participating in their tradition is offensive to them
Merry Christmas!
Merry War on Christmas
fuck yeah!
This has been going on for at least 15 years and it has got to stop
I work with people in three different time zones. There is always someone having a flower festival, religious day or national holiday. Nobody gets offended for forgetting a holiday or if they did they don’t last long.
like I am gonna say Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas. The guy in the $4,000 suit. COME ON!
The man on the TV said people would get angry at me for saying merry Christmas - the guy in the $6,000 suit - COME ON
This meme is pushing it because, well, meme. And that’s all fine.
As a non-native atheist speaker, though, I have to say “happy holidays” just doesn’t roll off the tongue the way “merry christmas” does.
It’s not a big deal at all, but I do find it annoying at the minimal level.
People that say this are so silly.
You’re not being oppressed. It’s just that saying merry Christmas to a crowd of diverse backgrounds is like wishing your mum a happy fathers day. She won’t be mad or offended, she’ll just think she should have breastfed you.
Yeah, I say Happy Holidays to someone I know who obviously doesn’t celebrate Christmas.
Also, it is weird for conservative Americans to be offended not greeting “Happy Christmas”, when the migrant ancestors of modern Americans did not celebrate it as a holiday until more recently. Protestants thought celebrating Christmas is a Catholic abomination. Look how tables have turned and acting hypocritical as always…
Most “traditions”, including holiday traditions, food culture, etc, are incredibly recent things. But people cling to it like they are the totality of their identify.
No you don’t understand, if I can’t force everyone to be exactly like me that means I’m being oppressed!
Maybe it’s different in the US and other cultures, but as an atheist I’ve never seen the phrase as a very religious thing. I say “merry Christmas” and “happy holidays” indistinctly and I’ve never seen anyone offended by the use of either, independtly of their faith (or lack thereof).
I say “merry Christmas” on the actual Christmas day though.
No one is offended besides the hardcore Christians. No muslim or orthodox Christian or whatever would be mad if you wish them merry Christmas if that’s the thing where you both live. As always, it’s fake fabricated outrage.
I prefer to use the real term, not the christian knockoff. Happy Saturnalia everyone!
I think that is is important to note that there is very little real evidence for Christmas being taken from saturnalia. You can google christmas and saturnalia and come up with plenty of web articles, but looking at the actual history of it makes it pretty clear. Christmas takes place around the same time of saturnalia, sure, but that does not make it a Christian stab at replacing it. Saturnalia was traditionally observed between the 17th and 23rd of December, not the 25th. It was a 5-7 day festival, not a one day festival. Additionally, the church is said to have gotten the 25th by taking the day John’s father was told he would have a son (shortly after the day of attonement), the new testiment statement that Elizabeth was 6 months pregnant when Jesus was conceived, and adding 40 weeks to the end for the average pregnancy. This would put Jesus born in late December. This general time line was documented as being calculated as early as CE 200s.
