“We will be GLAD to return when Christians & Those who fear God and HATE evil! Thank ------ You,”
… yeah, that seems about right.
I mean. The actuall complaint is to early and Ill agree with that part. I don’t like holidays starting up more than a month before. october for holloween, november for thanksgiving, december for christmass, march for saint pats, febuary for valentines and whenever for easter if it can get its act together. Ill give that an exception as mardi gras is its own thing. Oh but if its fireworks can we keep those to just the day of and maybe before and after but we don’t need a week of it. blah blah. man yells at cloud.
You can bet they don’t mind Christmas decoration is up 4 months before Christmas though.
and xmass is the worst culprit. It really annoys me as I like the simple fall type stuff before thankgiving. I totally hate anything xmass wise before the day after thanksgiving. instead it tries to tread on holloween which is nuts.
I have a problem when stores decorate for holidays so early, but I think in this case they were just selling their Halloween stuff. Lots of people like to get their decorations lined up early, and craft stuff can take time, so I have no issue with them selling stuff whenever.
Easter is always on the Sunday after the first full moon of spring. Blame the moon for being not in tune with the year.
febuary for valentines
That one isn’t at the end of the month tho?
yeah but they need the two weeks to clearance all the unsold candy and crap.
They need to just keep all the shit up all year round because that’s where we’re heading anyway.
I’m impressed the people of Tulsa put aside their differences to issue this joint statement
Lived near there once. It was truly amazing to see how unified the entire populus was. Nobody ever got into fights over anything, and there certainly weren’t any stabbings at a bar in town while I was there.
Pussy-ass bitch didn’t include a return address
I just love the idea that their almighty god can be defeated with cheap chinese plastic decorations at the dollar store.
It’s amazing how many things hurt the omnipotent being they worship. The words “happy holidays,” red cups, plastic Halloween decorations in July…
I thought the top warlock of NYC was Magnus Bane?
This is an important point which ought to be sorted out ASAP.
I don’t keep up with warlock seniority in New York and I don’t know who Magnus Bane is, but I read in another comment that John Ramirez is now a former warlock who says he died, went to hell, repented, and was sent back to life to preach against Satan. I’m not ready to take the guy’s word about all that, but it’s clear he no longer is taking up the top warlock spot, assuming he ever did, so there’s currently no conflict with Mr. Bane holding that title.
I didnt vote for him!
He wasn’t even on the ballot when we held the meeting.
I mean, I cant say I disagree with the irrational rage of holiday creep. seeing Christmas shit out in october, and halloween shit out in July/August is infuriating.
Far better ways to to approach it than this ridiculous satanic panic and other myriad religious bullshit, though.
Stores have seasonal sections. When 4th of July has passed, halloween is the next big retail holiday, followed by Christmas. When you consider that empty seasonal sections are the alternative, halloween in July makes a lot more sense.
What I’ll never forgive is Christmas music before Thanksgiving.
I didn’t ask for your forgiveness. In fact, I may ring up Mariah this morning, just for this comment…
But they can do seasons instead of just holidays
What else are stores supposed to do with their seasonal areas other than stock for the next decoration-based holiday?
Well, people are obviously buying this shit in summer, so don’t complain about the stores. It’s a worldwide phenomenon, too.
“the majority”…you keep using that word…
People like this usually aren’t smart or sane enough to understand perspective. They think everyone thinks the way they do and can’t fathom otherwise.
two out of the three of their personalities does technically count as a majority.
I guess they aren’t aware that Big Lots starts putting up Christmas stuff at the beginning of October.
When a minority of people think they are the majority. Fewer trash like them every year.
Fuck these people. Last year they were playing Christmas carols BEFORE halloween. It’s nauseating.
Have the courage to stand by your convictions and print a return address.
There’s not enough room for the addresses of all the citizens of Tulsa
Fucking hell, evangelical freaks fear God too?? Is their entire day just fear 24/7? Afraid of gays, afraid of trans, afraid of communism?! afraid of socialism, afraid of Muslims…
What an awful existence…
Yes. Fear is the basis of Christian fundamentalism, and it has become a super convenient way for the Republican party to keep them in line.
When fear is the baseline for your worldview, you see boogeymen around every corner.
I just don’t understand how these people are so upset at every single little thing and it’s not just upset about it, they think that every thing they don’t like is a personal affront to them. Like it’s gotta be exhausting to constantly be that upset.
Yes. They also believe that you’re supposed to teach your children to fear you. I’m convinced they believe that fear is the heart of love. They won’t admit that they think fear is a virtue but they do. Because they don’t understand that fear is a tool. You should have fears, they help you make wise decisions, but they need to be based in reality and regularly reexamined. They have little security and comfort and what they do have is couched in fear or conflict.
Like, it’s such a thing in their lives that if I could have my evil leftist re-education camps, they’d just be teaching cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapies.
3b. Christians & Those who fear God and HATE evil!
Should we… should we tell them that it’s originally a Christian holiday?
They fear God and seem to think he’s evil so I’m not sure they’re actually Christian. 🤔
