Harry Crikwanudan


Harry Crikwanudan?  What's that, a bird, a dinosaur?  No, it is the universal greeting for the holiday season!

It is guaranteed not to offend anyone (or almost, but who cares about those atheists right?).

So, um, what does it mean?  Well, Harry is a combination of Happy and Merry.  Crikwanudan is a combination of Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah and Ramadan.  Let's break it down for you:

Harry
-----
Ha  - Happy
rry - Merry

Crikwanudan
-----------
Cri - Christmas (but leave out the h just to make sure we don't offend anyone...)
kw  - Kwanzaa
anu - Hanukkah
dan - Ramadan

And how do you pronounce it?  I say it like 'Hairy Criquanadon'.

Great isn't it?  Now we can go around greeting everyone without worrying about offending them!

Because let me tell you, every time someone said Happy Hanukkah or Happy Kwanzaa or Happy Ramadan to me in the past, I got SOOO mad.  It was like an affront to my religion or something.  It made me question my beliefs.  It made me feel left out and ashamed.

I know people of other faiths felt the same way when I was forced to say Merry Christmas.  How were they supposed to feel when they realized they couldn't participate in Christmas.  I mean, Christmas is ENTIRELY about celebrating the birth of Jesus.  It has NOTHING to do with commercialism.  It's not like Christmas is a fake holiday made up to incorporate pagan Winter Solstice celebrations under some magical Christian umbrella or something.


Seriously, Christmas is a fake pagan holiday.  It should not be associated with the birth of Jesus.  Christians should pick a different day to celebrate his birth.  Since we have no idea what day of the year it was, we might as well pick any other random day of the year.

All you self-righteous politically correct idiots can stop Christmas bashing.  At least for it being a Christian holiday.  True Christians should start bashing it instead for its origins and the fact that if it ever really was a celebration of the birth of Jesus, it sure isn't now.

Something to think about the next time you are confronted with politically correct BS.

Harry Crikwanudan!
