I personally think "happy holidays" is often more efficient, religious views aside, because it doesn't become outdated if the ad will continue to run between December 26 and January 2 and it's shorter than "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!" so it works when there isn't enough time for both

Now you're either with Christmas or against it. Corporations will need to choose words carefully and utter the word "Christmas", even on January 1, in the holiday message. Otherwise, the Trumpsters will take their omission for allegiance and tweetstorm PR campaign against their product and say they'll boycott it but they'll all continue to use it anyway

"bwuhh? season's greetings?" goes even further, covering basically everything from oktoberfest through st patrick's day

christmas is a lovely commercialized holiday and thanksgiving is absurdly better

I like the crass capitalism of Christmas more than the folksy, fake family values of Thanksgiving

Someone put up posters in my neighborhood about a counter-protest of alt-knights and proudboys and Kekistanis but I don't know when, where, or what they're counter-protesting because it was torn down almost immediately :lol:

Plus it rained super-hard this afternoon so it was probably really easy to do

Does this get Republican legislators to check him since it kind of stands in the way of the plan to "make lots and lots of money"?

It's also a kind of backwards reference to this.

quote:

Kek (also Kuk, Keku, Kekui) is the deification of the concept of primordial darkness (kkw smꜣw, keku-semau[1]) in the Ancient Egyptian Ogdoad cosmogony. As a concept, Kek was viewed as androgynous, his female form being known as Keket (also Kekuit).[2][3][4] Kek and Keket in some aspects also represent night and day, and were called "raiser up of the light" and the "raiser up of the night", respectively.[5]

The name is written as kk or kkwy (kkt, kkwyt) with a variant of the sky hieroglyph in ligature with the staff (N2) associated with the word for "darkness" kkw.[6]

In the oldest representations, Kekui is given the head of a serpent, and Kekuit the head of either a frog or a cat. In one scene, they are identified with Ka and Kait; in this scene, Ka-Kekui has the head of a frog surmounted by a beetle and Kait-Kekuit has the head of a serpent surmounted by a disk.[7] In the Greco-Roman period, Kek's male form was depicted as a frog-headed man, and the female form as a serpent-headed woman, as were all four dualistic concepts in the Ogdoad.

But basically, yes, it comes from World of Warcraft and idiot nerds replacing "lol" with "kek" outside of the game.

I can't imagine anything causing Republicans to meaningfully stop Donny unless it gets in the way of them making money. This would do that, I'd think.

drat I could go for some of that. I guess as of this month it's been two years since I moved away from Honolulu.

edit: there are more and more "Hawaiian" restaurants in Japan these days but most of them are apparently patterned after Eggs and Things and thus specialize in waffles and poo poo.

I actually think they might just go and straight up impeach him if this happens. They have plenty of material if they ever want to, and the only reason they'd want to is this.
