My totally politically correct holiday wish to you!

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non-addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all; plus, “a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling, and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great, (not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country, nor is it the only ‘AMERICA’ in the western hemisphere), and without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith, choice of computer platform, or sexual reference/orientation (the use of which terminology is not intended to imply a preference or deference to one theory or another on the physiological nature of sexuality) of the wisher.”

Disclaimer: By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms. This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her/himself or others, and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. This wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year, or until the issuance of a subsequent holiday greeting, whichever comes first, and warranty is limited to replacement of this wish or issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher who assumes no responsibility for any unintended emotional stress these greetings may bring to those not caught up in the
holiday spirit.

I hope everyone enjoys the Holiday Season and I personally rejoice in the fact that I am here, healthy and able to enjoy the gifts of knowledge and joy that each of you bring into my life each and every day of the year.

SPAM ALERT! :eek:

Sorry. I couldn’t resist. I’ve gotten this emailed to me a dozen times since Thanksgiving. :wink:

Merry Christmas/Hannukah/Kwaanza/Diwali/whatever to you too, Annie!

Merry Christmas, If That’s OK

Claiming that you are “totally politically correct” reveals a huge blind spot: your name. It is offensive to all non-Christians. You must immediately change your name to Person-Holiday, issue an apology, resubmit the greeting, and report for a two-week course of sensititivity training. :smiley:

Only on SDMB are folks savvy enough to realize that X-mas is not a secularization of Christmas. :smiley:

My favorite greetings along those lines was of course on The Simpsons with Krusty’s multicultural holiday special wishing everyone “a merry Christmas, a happy Hanukkah, a kwazy kwaanza, a tip-top Tet and <somber> a solemn and dignified Ramadan.”
