The next person who tries to correct me when I say “Happy Holidays” is going to be told Happy Hanukkah instead. Very tired of hearing, “No, it’s MERRY CHRISTMAS.” I’m pretty sure Judaism was around a lot longer than your Buckstar’s boycotting butt, Karen.

My boss once shared a great story about that. This happened when he was in a layover in North Carolina back when the “War on Christmas” bullshit was first becoming prominent. He had gone to get a pack of cigarettes, and after he paid for it:

“Merry Christmas.” “Happy holidays.” “No. I said Merry Christmas.” “Do you know what Hanukkah is about?” “No, what?” “Some people tried to make us worship their ways, so we rose up and killed them. Happy Hanukkah.

I celebrate Christmas, but generally avoid holiday themed greetings when working as a cashier unless the customer mentions their holiday specifically. 

The other day, two older ladies were buying briskets and told me they was for their Hanukkah celebration that night, so I responded something like “Well Happy Hanukkah! It’s the third night, right?” 

I shit you not these two old ladies were so tickled that someone at a store wished them a happy Hanukkah. One of them literally told me I was “the first one to do that”. 

To those who think there’s a war on Christmas, please get the fuck over yourself and remember that not everyone experiences the world the way you do.

can i add that saying “happy holidays” doesnt mean “not merry christmas” it means “i hope that whatever you celebrate is joyful and peaceful and a good time” like back tf up if you think otherwise

The more technology progresses, the faster it and society change and the more and faster fads start and fade.

We’re reaching the freaking singularity- not from technology improving itself faster than humanity can (that’s already basically happening), but from society changing faster than people can actually keep up.

OMG

Ghost Padme is wearing neither the clothes she died in nor the clothes she was buried in, which can only mean one thing Padme Amidala brought her wardrobe with her to the afterlife, because wearing the same outfit for eternity was to her a fate worse than death

cute couple things i’ve seen on campus this semester that make me want a stupid boyfriend

  • girl and guy were sitting on the same chair with the guy behind her only he was hugging her waist and fast asleep on her shoulder while she was working on her computer
  • saw this couple across the street from me waiting for the bus. the guy did the thing where he pretends to look for something in his bag and pulls out a finger heart instead
  • in the hallway i watched this girl run up to her bf and he gives her the biggest hug and goes “see told you you’d kill your presentation” then kisses her forehead
  • girl sitting next to me in the library has been grinding on an assignment all day (like i’d have been in the library from 10-3 with breaks in between for classes but she’d been sitting there the whole time) and her boyfriend would come in every few hours, put down food or coffee on her table, kiss the top of her head, and walk away without a word
  • in one of my smaller classes (probably around 30 people) this guy’s phone rang and he sprung up and left the class to answer it. usually profs don’t care if you leave class but this one is really small and he knows all of our names/faces, so when the guy comes back in the prof asks if everything was ok. he has the biggest grin on his face and says “yeah, sorry that was my girlfriend. her flight took off right before it started snowing so i was worried. she’s okay tho.”
  • was sitting outside and reading when it was warmer and i could see this couple sitting under a tree a little ways away from me. the girl was laying in his lap while he was on his phone. suddenly i heard an alarm go off so i look up and they start switching places so now he’s laying his head on her lap and she’s reading sitting up. it happened twice more after that

gonna be cringe and acknowledge harry potter on main for a second just to say that the reaction to cedric diggory’s death in the goblet of fire is one of the most heartbreakingly tragic death scenes i’ve ever watched in a film

the horrible dramatic irony you experience as an audience when harry returns with his body and everyone starts clapping and cheering, blissfully unaware of the absolute nightmare he’s just been through? the sudden mood whiplash when fleur screams in horror and the upbeat band music falters and stops? the horrified silence that follows, broken only by harry’s choked sobbing and amos diggory’s agonised screams of “THAT’S MY SON! THAT’S MY BOY!” ? harry clinging desperately to cedric’s corpse when they try to pull him away?

the script from this series feels like it was made using cards against humanity, funny all the way

I always get weirdly angry at these screenshots because yes the script is funny but the delivery makes it TEN BILLION TIMES FUNNIER and the people who just see these and don’t watch the show DON’T KNOW, THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW FUNNY THESE LINES WERE.

It also completely removes the context of how amazing this scene was, too.

Yes, it’s funny, and the delivery is killer.

But Tahani has set her mind to trying to genuinely help people, with no credit attached to it. She goes about it the best way she knows how, which isn’t effective at all.

But here is big “dumb” Jason, the one everyone rights off, that no one listens to, telling her how to really help people. He’s the one who’s lived in severe, crippling poverty. Something that Tahani not only has never experienced, but that she can’t even really conceive.

Jason Mendoza’s whole character is about how this guy is actually nice. He’s sweet and thoughtful, and kind. But he grew up dirt poor, uneducated and surrounded by people who were also raised that way. He was exposed to toxic conditions, terrible situations, and never given the benefit of the doubt. 

His points aren’t his fault, they’re society’s fault. And that’s why i love this show.
