Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays

Not that I celebrate Christmas as such, I just thought some of you might want to send out Christmas wishes, post some funny Christmas memes or maybe let everyone know how you’re gonna spend your time off over the holiday season. With me being down here in the Land of Oz, I just wanna try and escape the heat. To this day, I still haven’t actually seen snow. That may or may not be a good thing. Meh…

And now, on a more serious note…

I wanted to send some sort of holiday greeting to my family and friends, but it is difficult in today’s world to know exactly what to say without offending someone. So I met with my lawyer yesterday, and on advice I wish to say the following:

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non addictive, gender neutral celebration of the Southern Hemisphere summer solstice holiday practiced with the most enjoyable traditions of religious persuasion or secular practices of your choice with respect for the religious/secular persuasions and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all.

I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2023, but not without due respect for the calendar of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make our country great (not to imply that Australia is necessarily greater than any other country) and without regard to the race, creed, colour, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee.

By accepting this greeting, you are accepting these terms:

This greeting is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It is freely transferable with no alteration to the original greeting. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement any of the wishes for her/him or others and is void where prohibited by law, and is revocable at the sole discretion of the wisher. The wish is warranted to perform as expected within the usual application of good tidings for a period of one year or until the issuance of a new wish at the sole discretion of the wisher.

Best Regards (without prejudice)

Merry Christmas to all.

My New’s Year resolution, which I’ve started working on early, is to say Merry Christmas to as many people as possible. Especially to those I think may be offended by it.
