Barnes and Noble "Holiday" Music
December 17, 2005 | Vanity

Posted on 12/17/2005 7:18:19 PM PST by sidewalk

For those following the Holiday/Christmas controversies, note that if you visit the Music/Video department of your local Barnes & Noble you will literally see a music section marked "Holiday/Hannukah/Kwanzaa."

Suffice it to say no purchases were made tonight.

That's when you get someone that works there to help you find the "Christmas" section. You point that there are sections for "Hanukkah" and "Kwanzaa" et al but no "Christmas". Of course you have to be a slightly dense and hard headed when do this.

Well Honda has a dumba$$ commercial that has people singing "we wish you a happy holidays" or is it "we wish you a happy Honda-days"? Either way it is annoying.

I try not to do business with B&N because they think substitute teachers are not real teachers.

I don't get my panties in a wad over Happy Holidays, but this does piss me off.

It is a clear attempt to exclude Christmas while mentioning the other holidays.

honda days........duh.

But yeah, it is annoying.

What kind of person buys a car for a Christmas gift anyway? The most we ever spend on one person is $50 bucks.

Well, what's a poor multi-cultist to do? "Christmas" is cultural suprematist, and unfair to oppressed minorities, who have their own holidays, so ... there you go.

Glad I did my book shopping at Border's, though they may be equally PC/Left...

If it wasn't for Christmas, there wouldn't be a "Holiday season."

I heard it and thought they were saying "hollandaise." I couldn't understand why someone would wish me a seasoned emulsion of butter and egg yolks mixed with lemon juice.

What gets me is that Kwanzaa is nothing but a bogus bullcrap "holiday" that was made up to make a bunch of race-card flipping dilrods feel even more self-important.

Kwanzaa is an example of Marxism, trying to acquire a soul. Like much sixties "folk" music, come to think of it.

Well that's the only place I do buy my books because, gasp!!, they have the best selection. I could care less about their politics or their stand on the commercialization of Christmas. The free market, isn't it wonderful?!?
