Searching for my people, I guess.
My partner hates it when I say that Die Hard is my favourite X-mas movie. Or, that I only want socks, underwear, and egg nog. She’s lactose intolerant. Maybe I’m just X-mas intolerant.
Anyway, have at ye scallywags! Vent your frustrations! Build me an anti-X-mas list! I’m already celebrating New Year’s over here.
Calling it X-mas has to be pretty high up there.
It’s been spelled like that for centuries. It comes from the Greek letter Chi, the first letter of the word Christós. The first English document (that we know of) using it is from around 1100 CE.
