Off Kilter Christmas Songs: Merry Christmas, If That’s Okay

Some people get SO Sensitive around this time of year. It used to be that you could say whatever you wanted to someone to wish them a happy holiday, and they'd say whatever they wanted back to you. I like saying "Happy Holidays", because I don't like assuming things about people. I don't care if you're celebrating the Winter Solstice, Kwanzaa, Yalda, Hannukah, Bodhi Day, Ashura, Christmas, New Year's or any of the others out there I don't know about.

I'm not gonna assume you're doing anything, because I haven't walked a mile in your shoes. SO, "Happy Holidays" is good enough for me. And if you want to say "Happy Yalda" back to me, that's fine. But I do have questions for you because I don't know what Zoroastrian religion entails.

So if you say "Merry Christmas" to me, and I say "Have a Happy Holiday" back to you, don't get mad at me. That's not cool. Just say "Thanks" and move on, JANET.

So, in that spirit, here's a song from one of my favorite shows of all time, MST3K.

I don't know about you, but I agree. Can't we all just get along?!

Yaldaingly yours,
Behka
