As for cowardly approach, what I can say ? Perhaps quote late Canadian prime minister Trudeau (father of current )who responded to some Nixon's remarks " I was called worse things by better people ". Never short on self-esteem I can live with being called forum "booster". After so many years of posting here I have some reputation on the forum I guess. Whatever that reputation is , it's up to readers to qualify. Nobody is forced to like anything others are posting so if you don't like mine , fine , we can still have a breakfast together at Foodland. Peace and holiday cheer be with you.

Well, it looks like you still need to learn the difference between a "boaster and a "booster." But you're definitely both here on these forums. Celebrate it! 😇 FYI... I don't say "Merry Christmas" to anyone unless I know that they celebrate it. I know that I don't celebrate. What about you?

I always reacted to his comments with likes and thanks and laughter. That's why it surprised me recently when he joined other sarcastic posters to belittle certain people. I guess you didn't realize how Mr Vinapu wished me those holiday greetings. The "too" he added at the end left the perfect note of snark, for I hadn't mentioned anything about holidays or the season. Nobody else in this thread had mentioned it either. Department_Of_Agriculture and Mavica 1 1 Quote
reader Posted December 24, 2023 Posted December 24, 2023 Please don't overthink "Merry Christmas" wishes. I often do the same out of spirit of the season with no intent whatsoever to offend. If we think "Merry Christmas" has mean intentions we'll soon start to question if "have a nice day" is indeed a snarky comment. I take this opportunity to wish that everyone experiences the joys of the season. vinapu, Boy69 and 10tazione 3 Quote

He is a Jew and does not want to be wished Marry Christmas on the birthday of the Prince of Peace. Fair enough. His choice, but also his loss, because I can think of few things more idiotic than barking at someone for wishing you for a holiday. So, it's just as well that you won't be sending him greetings. Still, I assume that he is happy to get 50% of most items during the Christmas season. Probably stocks-up on a year's supply of loo paper at Christmas time. Merry Christmas Everyone!

Do you know exactly why I took offense? I've already explained it above. The "Merry Christmas" greeting was offered to me as a sarcastic joke and not as respectful or polite.
