18. Only the right wing freaks could turn Christmas into an angry season.
They want the rest of the world to be as pissed off and angry as they are about life.

I find myself getting angry at them for being such miserable jerks but then I remember that old Chinese proverb: "resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."

So screw 'em. Let 'em be angry. Let them boycott Target and Best Buy and whoever else they want. If they were really concerned about the true meaning of Christmas they'd boycott all the retailers for turning Christmas into a consumerism-driven holiday. It shouldn't be about the presents and the gifts anyway.
