The people who insist that it's "Merry Christmas" instead of "Happy Holidays." Tell people that you know "Merry Christmas". OTOH, if you're working retail/fast food, tell them "Happy Holidays" instead, because you don't know what, if any, holiday they're celebrating. This doesn't come from a desire to expunge Christ from society; it's simply deference to other parts of American culture, whether Jewish or African (or wherever Kwanzaa came from). I mean, it would bug me if I was constantly being told to have a great Kwanzaa. Why purposefully offend or bother someone?
