I don’t celebrate Xmas in any way whatsoever. But I’m not worried about it if someone says Merry Xmas to me. I just say thanks & say I hope they enjoy their Xmas. Hope you enjoy your Xmas Mediocre celebration of whatever you did last year. Great cartoon.
Reminds me of Stephen Colbert’s ‘War on Christmas’ segments. This whole thing is really silly when you realize all it is – not wanting to offend anyone. Are non-Christians really offended by the people saying “Merry Christmas?” Christian who say it are I know I choose the watered down “happy holidays” just to be safe and that’s fine. In the end I just want people to enjoy themselves over the next few weeks.

I guess all you can get away with saying is “easons Greetings” now. But perhaps not. Just hand them your money and say thank you.
Easons Greetings? What the heck is that..haha
I wondered that too..
I guess they could just say “Have A Nice Day!”
Where’s the controversy in that?
Awwww, I like this one. It’s kinda sweet, in a cynical cartoon way.
That is how my wife describes me as well.
It is getting a bit ridiculous isn’t it? Yes, it is. Love the cartoon and it’s unfortunately right on the money.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
When am I OFF the money? haha
I might start celebrating Blogfestivus
good point
Those without a blog will complain though.
Ha,ha,ha! Great material Bearman. Funny!
Thanks MJ!
Maybe they could just tell us to get lost.
They are thinking that but they would never tell you that to your face.
OK, Hey Binky Get lost!!! 😛
Tony is honest!
You should start selling those “mediocre commemoration” cards immediately! You’ll be raking in the politically correct money!
Politically, they never put their money where their mouth is.
I don’t give a crap what people think!
Have a Freaking Merry Christmas sensitive babies! 😉
I have no problem how people greet me. Just try to be as nice the rest of the year.
Retrofabulous, Bearman.
🙂
Thanks RJ
I’ve checked the good book, I’ve checked it twice, no mention of christmas trees, wreaths or wires to lights! o.O
Feliz Navi-blah!
Well all the Frankincense trees are endangered.

XmasMediocre celebration of whatever you did last year. Great cartoon.Me either. I don’t care if someone says Happy Winter solstice or whatever the heck they celebrate.
Happy Holidays, Bearman!
Thanks
I still say Merry Christmas.
Happy Kwanzaa
Happy Humbug
Be safe and merry 🙂
Thanks U2
When people make assumptions about me that aren’t true there are two possibilities:
Either it’s harmless (No I don’t really celebrate that but what harm does it do me if you think I do?)
or harmful (Actually sweetie, I am not a dull-witted coffee making office girl who only deserves $10/hr, in fact, odds are I am smarter than you.)
In the latter case they are in serious danger of getting their car keyed if there’s nothing more positive that I can do about their false assumption.
haha. Remind me not to ask you for coffee or let you know what kind of car I drive.
Merry Xmas bearman xx
Thanks…u2 Myra
Merry Christmas, Bearman!!!!….Ha,… how do ya like me now!?…lol
Happy Winter Solstice Deb.
Funny how I’ve never seen this, because it’s sadly hilarious. Hallmark will be selling ’em soon enough!
Where were you two years ago when I posted this?
DRUNK AND PASSED OUT, probably.
Can we still say, “Have a great day” or is that too insulting to the people who aren’t? Hope your holidays were more than mediocre, Bearman!
We can’t, they were, thanks!!
In order not to offend anyone, some day they will assign all holidays an ID #. Here’s wishing you a Merry #415A Day!
People who like Prime numbers would be offended by that.

AS I always say, I don’t care how you greet me, I just wonder why you can’t be that nice the rest of the year.

That’s what you get for not paying attention before you hit submit.
