Holiday Loves Hates

I find it really amusing that even though you already responded to the OP you felt the need to come back and respond to me.  Honey you are so late, and so lame, this whole affair is so yesterday and over and this will be my last word to you on it.

Tell ya what.  How bout we just ignore each other?   Obviously you are hell bent on twisting my words and starting a cyber chick fight,   I say cat you choose to hear dog.   Fine, but don't tell me I said dog when I know I didn't.  I will not be bullied and I don't play those types of games so you and I really don't need to have any further interaction.


I don't put people on block but you are more than welcome to block me.  Either way, you and I have nothing to discuss unless and until you can actually hear and understand me without putting your own little remix on it.

Don't mind the rest of this I'm just talking to myself

*It's so funny to me how people plead for people understand that everyone doesn't observe Christmas, and in the process show no understanding for the fact that some people do and get all hostile about it.  Seems a bit hypocritical.  Oh well QT, whadda ya gonna do?   Takes all kinds to make the world go round*

Actually it was over days ago...but you posted here on the 22nd.  As far as my late post to you?  I have a life and hadn't been on the computer in over 24 hours when I read your post late this afternoon.

Talk,
I am so shocked at you. I understand you may not agree but come on. I am not Jewish and I grew up in NY/NJ and I was forced to observe all of the Holidays that you mentioned.. uhm actually it is ironic b/c I went to Catholic school...But as I child all I knew was Hey I am out of school Thank You God. I feel this has truly gotten out of hand and I am responding to you b/c I held you in a different regard, I know you may not agree but I didn't think you would respond with your ending remark. And ALL of you who have posted have left me out, so I think YOU all owe me a Happy Boxing Day and Please no profanity.

Sorry, my bad.  You had previously mentioned that you observe Boxing day...and since I know that it is appropriate to say to YOU "Happy Boxing Day".  Had you not originally mentioned it, you would have gotten a "Happy Holiday" from me...which would have been very appropriate not knowing you and what you celebrate.

And unless you went to Synagogue on the High Holidays as a child, you weren't forced to observe...just off of school for 3 days (give or take).  Though I guess I never realized that a Catholic school would be closed for those holidays...could be some of  your teachers and other school employees weren't Catholic?  It kills me that in Georgia's 2nd largest school district (that has a high population of Jewish employees as well as students) I have to use personal/sick days for the High Holidays.  And when I originally moved out of NY to Florida, my mom would call us in to school "sick". 

As far as my reaction?  Various people on this board have chosen to shove Xmas down everybody's throats...AFTER I mentioned that I disliked when people in public say "Merry Christmas".  I will reiterate one of my initial posts, it has nothing to do with being politically correct, it has to do with respecting each other's beliefs.  My brother married a Catholic woman a few years ago.  Now, personally, his wife is a bit on the "fanatic" side, but be that as it may...they have a little girl this year.  They are not raising her Jewish.  So, all of her presents were wrapped in Xmas wrap.  I am respecting their choice to raise my niece Catholic. 

Roxy, and anyone else who grew up in NY/NJ area, may understand this...but being Jewish isn't just about religion.  It's about culture, tradition, and way of life.

That said
HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I Grew up in Brooklyn and all I knew were Jewish, Caribbean and Italian families. Never did I ever experience the drama over Holidays as I have on this board. Now, Talk as I stated in my earlier post we are all allowed our own opinion in post but when we start using profanity and insulting each other it makes the post take a different direction and YES you do not know me and I have spent MANY Holidays in synagogue especially since my Godmother is Jewish(I am Catholic u ever heard of a Jewish Godmother?) and gave me Christmas gifts and I got Hannaukah gifts and still to this day I have a gold dradle my Bubbie gave me when I was 4 which is like 30 yrs old now(hmm I wonder if it is worth something). All that being said have you ever seen a little caribbean black girl sitting in a synagogue?? Anywho I allow people to say what they like and I speak my mind and all I am saying is that this is Holiday season and all this drama is uncalled for, especially the profanity and name calling. Now..as a fellow NY'er you know we do not speak just to speak, so I did not approach you in a disrespectful tone as I am kind of picking up in your tone to me. I came to you b/c I was shocked to see not your post but how you ended your post. My Bubbie called me this morning to wish me a Merry Christmas had to remind her it is tomorrow though.

HAPPY BOXING DAY (Dec. 26th) Hmmm why aren't there any Boxing Day cards?

I LOVE IT"S A WONDERFUL LIFE!!!! Have you seen it on TV yet? I also love the original Miracle on 34th street. memories...

You two are just skanky ass woman. How can you disrecpt others... what do you mean Friggin Hanukah..... Are you that ignorant... do you have no shame as to what other people practice... and NO the freakin world does not revolve around xmas. Actually, most of the world is other religions and during december Ramadan,Kwanza and Hanukah are celebrated...

You are just nasty itolerant *****es... why do you think nobody posts on this ga board...

Hey la shelle just tellin the truth.. can you take the truth.... how about another massage on the beach.... that woman looks like she is gonna ****** puke massaging your fat ass on the beach... hey just tellin it staight up...

So next time you disrespect someone elses belief you better check your self

 

 

This is so uncalled for. I am sure this kind of talk would NEVER happen in person. Why would you call these women out of their names? I just don't understand how this has come to name calling with such disrespect and hatred. Oh and you forgot Boxing Day, but I did not disrespect you for it. I think this whole thing truly needs to STOP and STOP now. Yes I am posting late, I just bumped into this mess.

You "ladies" and I use the term quite loosely, are the reason that people turn away from religion and the reason that oppression exists in this country.  I cannot believe that you would call yourself a Christian and then post the bull**** that you just posted.  I'd say more but you are obviously incapable of comprehending that a world exists beyond your own shallow and narrow views.  So go ahaed and sit home being pissed off because Jewish people celebrate Hanukah, the rest of us will be out there fighting so that all of us can be free to enjoy life as we please. 

Wow, why do I feel like I just stepped into the twilight ZONE? Is this for real? Please tell me I am on Candid Internet. It amazes me how profanity starts to fly out of peoples mouths when they are angry for no reason. Isn't this thread about Likes and Hates? Everyone is entitled to their post. I am amazed we have other states coming in and insulting as well.. hmmm wonder how they found out? And what about BOXING DAY??? How rude
