I'm sick and tired of Ebenezer Scrooge being continuously slandered! Craig Send a noteboard - 22/12/2010 07:38:18 AM
Dammit, people, the man repented! "... [A]nd it was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge." And yet we continue to call anyone who hates Christmas a "Scrooge," and utter "Bah, humbug!" at the drop of a hat!

Don't get me started on the poor Grinch, either. Some people have no bloody forgiveness in their hearts.
I am made of poison.

No, I hate my post, too. Palatine - 23/12/2010 05:08:46 PM 323 Views
Well, at least you're consistent. Joel - 23/12/2010 08:49:34 PM 515 Views

Um, he disliked all things Christmas? Craig - 24/12/2010 05:20:41 PM 386 Views
Ah. I've never heard of this fellow. That's why I asked. So, where do I find him? *NM* Palatine - 25/12/2010 05:13:53 PM 145 Views
The classic Rankin/Bass Christmas Special "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town." Craig - 26/12/2010 06:59:26 AM 400 Views
I probably have--just been a long time. *NM* Palatine - 26/12/2010 06:15:34 PM 155 Views

That's a reason to reclaim Christmas, not disown it. Joel - 23/12/2010 08:31:07 PM 388 Views
Do I understand you correctly? Palatine - 24/12/2010 05:17:03 PM 368 Views

What, you'd rather it remained a Bronze Age pagan fertility rite? Joel - 27/12/2010 11:17:09 PM 459 Views
That's kinda funny because Christ wasn't born in December. Good one! *NM* Dark Knight - 23/12/2010 01:53:37 AM 215 Views
Yeah, that's part of my problem with Christmas. *NM* Palatine - 23/12/2010 05:12:29 PM 167 Views
