No, it's been merry Christmas for how long?
To me, they are trying to change what has been here for yrs..
What made me bitter about this was this:
Talking to somebody in a store.
Guy says: happy holidays
Me: merry Christmas
Guy: merry Christmas? Don't you mean happy holidays?
Me: no, merry Christmas (chuckling)
Guy: don't you think that's a bit rude?
Me: no not all, why would it be rude.
Guy: I guess you got no respect! Happy holidays.
Me: MERRY BLEEP CHRISTMAS
a fine example of some people trying to change ways!!
