Why do people get so retarded this time of year?

[GT40FIED]

For some reason every year around this time people seem to start acting a lot more retarded than usual. In particular, all of these people who want to boycott stores like Target or WalMart because they defer to the word "holidays" instead of "christmas". What the fuck? Are you serious? Imagine if the stores put up banners that said "Happy Hannukah" or "Happy Kwanza" and left christmas banners out altogether. Holy shit...these people'd drop dead right there. When the fuck are rabid christians going to realize that not everyone worships the same way they do and that that's ok? I mean...I celebrate christmas (although more as a day of generosity than a religious holiday) but I get that not everyone else does. Hell...I've got friends that celebrate solstice. Sure...it was a little odd to me at first but it's all the same idea. People who want to organize boycotts are undoubtedly older than me and should have had cause in their life to run into at least a few people who didn't rock a christmas tree...so what the fuck is so offensive? There's a word for that. Oh yeah...it's called prejudice. Way to be a good christian.
