    Merry 'Winters day' guys :p (and girls, but 'guys' in generic anyway :p)


    Basically, post what you did all 'winters day' :p

    as you cant tell from the attached to this post, im sitting on my computer for 'winters day'

    PS, im calling it 'winters day' to be 'politically correct' :p not that Xmas has anything to do with Christ.... it was originally a pagen ceremony celebrating the winter equinox :p (but i guess the christians like the idear :p)

    Im feeling grumpy :( 'winters day' just aint the same anymore...... it kinda sucks now.

    Christmas has everything to do with Christ, it's the strange rituals surrounding it that are pagan. First-century 'Christians' were actually Jews, so they celebrated Jewish holidays. The term 'Christian' was not used to describe the followers of Jesus until much later. However, those pagan rituals separated from their original meanings are completely harmless, so you might as well enjoy the holiday for what it is and forget all about being politically correct. Christmas is now what it is now, and it's up to you whether you enjoy it or not. IMHO, political correctness is a popular way of being a milquetoast weasel anyway, outwardly offending no-one but standing for nothing.

    Me? I'm sitting in front of my computer all day, just like any other day off of work, that's all it is to me, just another day off.

    I sound so much like a Scrooge, but meh, I'm not bothered.
