Snowflakes. What does one call a gathering of snowflakes?
A blizzard? A storm? A flurry? A dusting?

I propose we call them a “Tweet of Snowflakes”!

In northern latitudes, or in the mountains, snowflakes create the backdrop of the Christmas season, when they fall as snow. But they are hardly the main thing!!

And in places like the Arizona desert, there may well be no snow at all, or perhaps just enough snow for children of all ages to enjoy for a very little while. But Christmas still comes!!

Blessed Advent! And Merry Christmas, when the real Christmas season comes!!!!

Save your Christian children and grandchildren by getting them OUT of the government-run schools. You will be very thankful you did.

I say we should get ridiculed gift giving of any kind lest we trigger people over Christmas, income inequality of the like. Hit the merchants in the pocket and see how fast things change

3 years ago my wife and I retired to Spain. Lots of people mock it as a Socialist country but this is what is on our town hall

and this is atop one of the largest rocks at the entrance to our old harbor, marking the spot where the Moors were driven out of Spain in 1489. To give you an idea of how big it is, each one of the blocks in the cross is about a yard long. We can see it shining from our windows every night.

I think all the people who are opposed to Christmas should not get the day off.

I guess my parents forgot to teach me to spend my every waking moment looking for something I find offensive?!

The life of a snowflake must be total misery, 24/7.

Like raging (pick some animal) going about seeking to see what offends them then complain.

My best response to anyone and everyone, simply say: “Merry Christmas” and if they complain, tell them to go screw themselves and their PC-ness.

I think that has ALWAYS been the best response.

Move to Ridyah, Mecca or Medina.

I'm pretty sure that your Christmas trauma will lessen immediately!

Cashier: “Have a nice day!”
Elsie: “And a wonderful forever; too.”
