Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!

X-Mas-AO

NOTE: We’re not even trying to be politically correct. In the United Sates people are saying “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas”. Each of us celebrate Christmas in our own way, be it religious os tradition. The message is still the same: presents. We spend our money buying presents for other people whether they like it or not. Commercialism, that’s what makes Christmas fun.
