God bless us, everyone

Merry Christmas, everybody! Unless, of course, you don't celebrate this day in a religious or secular manner, in which case, happy pagan holiday to you. If you're Jewish, then not only am I late to wish you a happy Hanukkah, but I really should've said something to you on Yom Kippur. If Kwanzaa is your thing, then you'll have to share with the Boxing Day people, and I hope you're cool with that. It's not Ramadan, as far as I know, but I wish you all the best the next time you bow to Mecca. And if you're going door-to-door today to tell the good people you've witnessed Jehovah, man, you've really picked the wrong day to do that, so God bless you. Unless, of course, you don't believe in God, in which case all hail the higher power -- which qualifies for athiests in any kind of 12-step recovery process. And if you don't believe in a higher power, then happy Monday. Or whatever day it may be on your calendar/sun dial.
