Hello dreadfuls! You look amazing today no matter what anyone else has told you.

Christmas is almost upon us so I'm sure you're all looking forward to the presents the fat fella in the red costume is bringing you : more hentai anime, Gatorade, a 12 month subscription to WOW, a new fedora, and some Bitcoins.

Now, on to serious matters. Christmas is a time for giving but it's also a time for speaking like an adult and not a child pretending to be an adult. Christmas is a word and so is, apparently, Xmas. People - stupid people, perhaps like you - pronounce this as 'exmis' because they are rubbish. Are you one of these maladjusted brainwrongs? Do you say Xmas, or Christmas like a normal person would? This serious discussion almost certainly deserves, nay demands, a poll:

  • I say 'Xmas' because I am an asshat
  • I say 'Christmas' because I am an asshat but know how to use a proper word
  • peopel from Bath have no force here.

Over to you.

Xmas has been used since the 16th century.
X (from the Greek letter Chi) has been used a symbol for Christ since 1551, it would seem.

I dislike the word too, but its use is not technically incorrect.
 
I write Xmas and the Nexus 7 speak everything I bloody type woman says Christmas.

Xmas
Xmas
Xmas
Xmas
is ****. Bah humbug.
 
Christmas is not a Christian holiday, it has absolutely nothing to do with God nor Christian, Christ should be removed from the pagan holiday, the festive season belongs to the secular society it is a secular holiday, christmas is a false religious teaching, secularists should campaign to remove the word christ and take back what belongs to them.
 
I say "Happy retail sales event of the year!" - I require an addition option in the poll.

This will change to "Happy Amazon server overload!" once the high street is dead.
