you know thinking of holidays has made me come to this conclusion.

any holiday that is constantly abbreviated for any reason is a sham.

i'm thinking of christmas in particular. why do people abbreviate it? is it really THAT long that you can't type 4-5 extra characters (depends on your use or lack there of "the dash")?

or are you abbreviating the holiday because you don't really want to be constantly reminded of christ. rather, you just want to celebrate gift giving aka consumerism?

i mean, i guess it's easy to forget the most important part of the holday.

yes, it said so in "the" bible, that three wisemen gave gifts and spent the next two months scurrying around trying to figure off how to pay off those damn gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

i mean come on, who really wants fankincense anyway? and who doesn't already have enough myrrh.

i'll admit, the gold really does up the room.

and i hope the gold was a gold cafe idol.

(dl) mazzy star: flowers in december, as it's so good.

yes, anyway i think real holidays don't require or focus on gift giving. here are some great holidays (and other celebritory days)in which the diamond company's ruin men's lives:

1. valentine's day
2. sweetest day
3. birthday
4. half-birthday
5. christmas

god damn it, i just realized i should have used "black monday" as a holiday in my poll. fuck it all i'm not editing it.

other holidays that require buying things suck too:

1. halloween - where does all this candy even come from? and what the fuck, if i want to dress up, i'll go with your dad to the transvestite bar in boys town.
2. 4th of july - actually buying firecrackers are cool because they have the possibility of causing serious harm(s), or better yet, casualties. but buying flags are stupid.

ok, so all this complaining has to be leading to some ultimate point right? RIGHT. the point is, st. patrick's day is the best holiday ever because it goes by so fast. it goes by so fast because your body, when all boozed up, refuses to allow time to travel at a normal rate because if that happened, you'd just have way too much time to keep drinking until you died. but st. patrick's day is sweet. you get to drink cheap, green beer that is all of a sudden expensive because it's the color green. and then you get to shit out green shit which is always noticable when smeared on your undies. you know what i'm talking about cammie.
