Happy christmas bouncers

Happy Christmas everyone. Hope you all have a safe and joyous Christmas whatever you’ve got planned.
 
Happy xmas to EVERYONE πŸ’š
This is not a dig in the slightest. I am not religious in the slightest, but it has always seemed crass to me to X the Christ out of Christmas.
Strangely it has always irked me .
All the best, have a great day Joe.

Ultimately I agree but in origin this is not what it's about, though maybe for some today.

The X is not (originally) an 'ex' it's a Greek 'Chi'. XP, or Chi-Ro is an ancient representation of Christ, and thus Xmas originally an abbreviation.

Merry xmas πŸ˜‰ That does it for me. It's just a random date assigned hundreds of years after his supposed existence. A fake guy with flying reindeers is much more fun πŸ˜€β˜ƒοΈπŸ¦ŒπŸ¦ŒπŸ¦ŒπŸ¦ŒπŸ¦ŒπŸ¦ŒπŸŽ‰πŸŽπŸŽ„

I suggest very few know that fact πŸ˜‚
It's always struck me strange how it irks me when religion is not my bag, and deep down it makes no difference to me.
Where as believers like yourself don't seem to mention it.
It's a bit like when pundits call us Hibs. I aye moan at them " it's Hibernian to you !,"
Childish pedantic prick that I am πŸ˜‚
