So how are you gonna answer when your kid asks you

[Jackpine Radical]

"Daddy, what did you do in the War on Christmas?"

Did you do something meaningful? Did you picket a creche scene on public property? Did you mug a Santa? Did you harass a Fundie about the War on Yule? Did you at least say "Bah, Humbug" to the MallWart greeter?

1. I publicly complained about the Christmas music in a restaurant two days ago

:shrug:

And if the kids call me "Daddy," something's gone horribly wrong. :scared:

[Muttocracy]

2. If I had kids, they'd be child soldiers in that war. nt

[sandnsea]

3. I have not brought my Santa in

Maybe I will just leave him out there all year to remind people that *I* take the Christ out of Christmas. So there. :rofl:

[babylonsister]

9. I loved the idea of putting yellow tape around Santa, if he's deflated.

Chalk would be fun, too. Crime scene! :)

[sandnsea]

11. He's wire - and currently decapitated

after the wind blew him over - honest, the wind blew his head off officer, not me - so the crime scene tape would definitely work. hehe.

[waiting for hope]

4. Well, my Daddy says "Bah, Humbug" to just

about everyone. Could he blanket me in this? BTW, it would be nice if you made your post gender neutral. ;-)

5. My gingerbread men were anatomically correct.

6. Took the green decorated tree down and replaced it with two white topiaried horns...

in downtown Bethesda, MD.

7. Im going to tell him to shut up & eat his gruel

[Double T]

8. I pulled off Santa's cheap, phony chinese made beard and exposed him..........

for the commercial retail corporate fraud he was. Pagans have more fun!!!!

[CLANG]

10. Shrink it in a bathtub

My spouse and I spent a combined total of $34 on each other for X-Mas.

[mmonk]

12. My kids wouldn't ask that. They are intelligent.

[RiverStone]

28. Given my kiddo's grew up celebrating Solstice --- and ignoring the commercial bullshit

They would never ask either, thankfully! :hi:

[PDJane]

13. If any offspring of mine asked a question like that,

or offspring of offspring, I would know that either they were yanking my chain or I'd somehow failed.

[valerief]

14. I put up a Festivus pole. nt

[regnaD kciN]

15. I celebrated the birth of Jesus Christ...

Sorry if that offends you...NOT!

[Jackpine Radical]

23. I have no problem at all with people celebrating Christmas, Yule, the Saturnalia,

Festivus, or whatever.

[NMDemDist2]

16. I said "Happy Holidays" to over 300 people a day all the way through the holidays

not once did I say "Merry Christmas"

but I don't have any kids, so I doubt it comes up

:evilgrin:

[EFerrari]

17. My son is a happy co-conspirator!

:)

[elfin]

18. I renamed it "Giftaplooza"

and found oodles of small things (NOT made in China) to make us laugh all day long by my Festivus Tree, decorated with family memories.

[liberalmuse]

19. My war on Christmas started in 2003.

Because of Bush's war on the people of Iraq, and on our military men and women. I couldn't see putting up lights or a tree after that atrocity began, and it's become somewhat of a habit to not celebrate Christmas (not to mention I've become an atheist during that time).

[roody]

20. I was a conscientious objector. I did nothing.

Oh wait, I said Merry Every Day, when people said Merry Christmas. But only one person said Merry Christmas to me---all the store people said "Happy Holidays" I should have said, "Every day is a holy day."

[TlalocW]

21. I put up a sexy Cirque Du Soleil ornament on my tree this year

She's up there with Daffy, Taz, the Grinch, C3PO, Storm Troopers, the Three Stooges, a lunar lander, the Alamo, the St. Louis Arch, etc.

You know... traditional Xmas stuff.

[southerncrone]

22. I was a consciencious objectioner on grounds that it is all a diversion from what's important

in life.

I tried to ignore Christmas altogether. Cuz MoMo don't play that game.

[mitchum]

24. I made baby Jesus cry...what else?

[mitchum]

25. Sneaked another figure into the manager scene...

a guy standing behind Joseph giving him the cuckold horns with his fingers

[Jackpine Radical]

29. Speechless...

:rofl:

[Incitatus]

26. I killed Santa and that's why you're not getting any presents.nt

[VPStoltz]

27. To anyone who wished me a Merry Christmas, I said either Happy Soltice or

Happy Holidays. I bought no gifts. Hell, I didn't even put Vince Giraldi this year.
