Well, make up a name and you have made up a holiday. Tom Send a noteboard - 27/12/2012 08:05:38 PM
There are only five recognized holidays at the end of the year. They are, in roughly the order they usually appear:

1. Hanukkah
2. The Winter Solstice
3. Festivus
4. Christmas/Sol Invictus
5. New Year's Eve/New Year's Day
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Well, ironically enough, we are having a White Kwanzaa! - 27/12/2012 12:39:32 AM 433 Views
Quit making up holidays that don't exist. *NM* - 27/12/2012 03:31:27 PM 350 Views
What are some other holidays that don't exist? *NM* - 27/12/2012 07:29:46 PM 104 Views

Wait, I thought Kwanzaa WAS Festivus. - 28/12/2012 01:12:22 AM 240 Views
I would wager more people celebrate Festivus than celebrate Kwanzaa. - 28/12/2012 01:30:38 AM 266 Views

Seriously? Columbus Day? - 28/12/2012 01:18:50 PM 271 Views
Genocide Day would be a more appropriate name. Or Imperialism Day, I guess. *NM* - 29/12/2012 12:54:06 AM 105 Views
Too many other Genocides or Imperial expansions, it would be Amerocentric to pick that as focus *NM* - 29/12/2012 01:10:23 AM 101 Views
Well said - 29/12/2012 04:59:45 AM 452 Views
Genocide would imply actual intent. - 29/12/2012 03:29:37 AM 725 Views
All true. - 29/12/2012 04:22:21 PM 459 Views
Don't get me started on Mothers' Day and Fathers' Day - 28/12/2012 02:43:42 PM 462 Views
