War on Xmas

War on Xmas


My friends, I want to talk to you about an insidious plot to destroy the greatest holiday of a generation.

The generation: Gen-X

The holiday: Xmas

Yes, the most revered day in Gen-Xdom (Well, the day we lost our virginity is a contender. As is, most definitely, payday.) is being ANNIHILATED as we speak!

Look around, at this time of year, “Christmas” is everywhere and even more prevalent is “Happy Holidays”!

What we see is no less than the attempt to brush aside a great day of a great generation!

We, Gen-X, who have known life without cable, without remotes, and who fondly remember pinball, “Pong”, and of course, “Space Invaders”!

Armed with degrees in Philosophy, English, Women’s Studies, Art, and, yes, even Theatre. When our time arrived, we proudly stepped forward and proclaimed “DO YOU WANT FRIES WITH THAT?”

Friends, we cannot let the pernicious purveyors of “PC” prevail in this war.

As we did after the famed final Moon landing, we must direct our gaze to the abyss of the universe and ask “NOW WHAT?”

What? I’ll tell you what! We must fight to put the

X

back in

Xmas
