The clerk said "Merry Christmas", "Happy Hanukkah" I replied.
Almost all clerks and checkout staff at stores wish me Happy Holidays nowadays but there's a couple that are clearly FoxNews/War on Christmas types that have wished me a Merry Christmas.

One of them just wished me a "Merry Christmas" at the drugstore.
I looked her in the eye with a smile on my face and said "Happy Hanukkah".

She actually looked offended for a moment.
She got that thin-lipped tightness in her mouth.
Then there was a look, a realization in her eyes that she has been doing to others what I just "did" to her.
She didn't say a word, but I could see it.

"Happy Holidays." I said, and left.


No conversions screaming that they are voting for Hillary.
No applauding and cheering crowds.
No TV remotes being hidden.

7. It's that time of year again.

Where all of the liberal warriors have their "I was in line at the grocery" moment. It always works out so perfect. Amazing how many adult cashiers have their aha moment at the hands of offended duers.

If the "liberal warriors" piss you off so much???

Seems like you're in the wrong place? No?

I have found a good response to almost any pleasantry offered by people in stores, on the street, anywhere is a cheerful "Well, thank you. And to you as well."

I cannot understand why so many of the DUmmies insist on living in Butthurt Land.

My boyfriend, who is Jewish but atheist (not Atheist --there's the difference) goes out of his way to wish people Merry Christmas and, in fact, loves the Christmas season. I've asked him if he wishes people a Happy Hanukkah and he says "Usually not -- we lost!  :-)

She was probably worried you were some kind of nutcase, and didn't want to say anything so you'd just leave quietly. 

Hopefully, you granted her that wish.

I always look forward to wishing Jews a Happy Yom Kippur!

 :rofl:  Just saying "Merry Christmas" marks someone as FoxNews/War types.   :rofl:  Do you suppose the DUmmy knows that Christmas predates Fox News by centuries?   :rofl:

The DUmmies can prove- with chicken wire, gasoline, and a cinder block - that Fox News invented Christmas to oppress the indigenous people of the blue states.

Went to a Fred's Pharmacy today. A woman outside the front door said "Merry Christmas". We said "thank you and Merry Christmas to you." I don't know if the woman was an employee.

At the checkout counter the lady who definitely was an employ said "Merry Christmas" after ringing us up. Again we said, "thank you and Merry Christmas to you."

There was no need for any conversions as no idiots were present to convert. Of course, it was around lunch time so most DUmmies were probably still in bed.

I guess everyone I've known all my life has been a Fox News/War on Christmas type and didn't even know it.

To not hear or return a "Merry Christmas" would seem weird, and if anyone used the awkward, tortured phrase "Happy Holidays" they'd sound really goofy.

Of course that's how it is here in red state hell, but it was no less the case when we lived among normal people in the North.

It's all good to me!
