A friendly reminderFollow

Christmas is almost here (for those of you that celebrate it) and many of your friends/family members go out and search through crowded stores and spend hours on the internet getting people gifts to put a smile on your face.

Eventhough your Grandma may not be on top of the latest fashions and gets you the most god awful looking sweater, she did mean well and spent her own money on it so that's all that should matter. A lot of kids and young adults don't have the income to spread around presents like the adults so just be polite smile and always say "thank you" which will mean more to them than if you got them a gift at all.

Christmas isn't just about God or receiving presents but it helps make everyone feel good and helps tear people away from the hassles of work and bills, (at least just for one day) so keep others feelings into consideration and help everyone have a Merry Christmas....


**And btw, Merry Christmas to you all hope your holidays go well :)

Sweet mother of all that is holy (and Tom Cruise) another Dolphins fan ! Woooooooooooooooooooooot I'm glad I'm not alone !

Sweet Jesus I am surrounded by Dolphins fans where ever I go. I live in SW florida so dolphins fans are everywhere..

Personaly I am a bengals Fan


WHO-DEY!

ok.. now I do mean to be an ***


F cking bengals fans. I f cking hate you and your goddamned skyline bullsh t that you try to shovel off on us poor saps that have been stuck here in a relocation. The bengals f cking suck, Chad Johnson is an overated ***, and "who-dey" is not even a realy f cking word. Stop f cking shouting it like it means anything. What is "dey"? What is its language of origin?

Exactly, it is not a word, so stop using it! All that shouting "who-dey" manages to do is reinforce the idea that everyone in cincinnati is a f cking moron who does not know how to speak their native language.

I know, back in 1988 it was "Who Dey, think is gonna beat Dem Bengals." but it has been almost 20 years since you have even come close to making it to the Super Bowl, and most people think they are going to beat the bengals. You might as well be th f cking redskins...

And "Who Dey, think is gonna beat Dem Bengals."? How f cking stupid do you have to be to think that this little diddy even comes close to resembling a proper phrase. I am stammering with rage just thinking about "Who Dey, think is gonna beat Dem Bengals."

And stop ending your f cking sentances with "at." You do not put a preposition at the end of your sentance. It is a basic grammar rule that you should have learned in the first grade. STOP IT! Die. everyone in cincinnati can f cking die. I hate you all.



Someone want to play "guess where Psichi lives"?

Actually, Christmas has become more than just a religious holiday, and I do not mean in the corporate way. Christmas is a time of year where being nice to others and spreading goodwill becomes the norm and where people tend to be a bit nicer and willing to give. And if you ask them why, they'll say "It's the Christmas season." And that's not just limited to people who are Christian, many non-Christian celebrate Christmas now.

So, I hate to disagree, but Christmas in not just about God, nor is it about commercialism. It's also about being a time of goodwill and being just a bit nicer to the people around you.

If it was up to me, I'd cancel the gifts.

I find it silly that people give spend money to buy each other stuff when everyone could just save the money and buy it themselves. And before you write me off as a coldhearted sumbitch, what I like about Christmas is the time I get to spend with those I love.

For me the spirit of Christmas is not in the presents or the morning mass at church. It's about sharing a good meal and a good evening with the ones I care about.

By the way, Christmas Eve is the main event in Denmark. December 25th is celebrated as First Christmas Day, but gifts are unwrapped on the 24th in the evening. Which is why I said "sharing a good meal and a good evening".

As was mentioned, Christmas (which literally stands for Christ's Mass") started when Christian leaders decided to force Christianity on the unwashed heathens who celebrated other Pagan rituals during the same time of year. It is largely agreed that Christ was not actually born on Christmas day.

So Jesus put the Christ in Christmas, but the holiday now spans more than just the Christian faith. Depending on your religious (and social) upbringing, Christmas is either a religious day to celebrate the birth of the Messaiah, a day for rekindling social ties, a day for family & loved ones to gather, a holiday based on a fat mystical man in a red suit who sneaks down chimneys and gives out toys or coal and has a penchant for reindeer, or just another day on the calendar.

Whatever it means to you, enjoy it to the fullest.

You may just have to deal with this for now..

Im with you on that one mazra!

And football, BLEH! My steelers be the suck this year!

BOOOOOOO BENGALS BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

RAVENS BABY!!! That's where it's at.

Oh and a side not:


Miami will always have a special place in my heart, for they were my fav back before Baltimore had a team (I wasn't around for the colts). But I just had to convert to my Ravens, but I will never forget my roots and will always hold a special place just for Miami

oh and

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all as well.

Who won the last game :)


See you in the playoffs

Weird. A thread with religious comments that got hijacked to another topic. I think my internet's broke.

I live near Winston-Salem and the Panthers are my second favorite team. I had already been cheering for Miami and worshipping Marino before Carolina came along, so there was no way Carolina was going take over as my favorite team. Sounds like we're in the same boat and yeah, that Steelers game was ugly.
