Merry Holidays to all, and dammit, I mean it


On this, the holiest of days, may all the blessings of hope and love be yours and for your loved ones, and may you live happily in peace, always, with all the joys of the yuletide season, not only today but throughout the coming year, without regret, and with new understanding that each day is sacred in our hearts, and in our dreams, driven by our own personal sleighs, and lit by the beacons of truth and peace on earth, plus goodwill to man, and to all, with love, as stated above; and may prosperity shine upon your family throughout the coming year, and the year after that, and frankly, forever, even long after you and your family are in their eternal graves, feeding microbes that also are blessed in the holiday spirit, whether they appreciate it or not, because they do not believe in anything, which is sad but still okay, because they are special in the eyes of Christmas; and may this wondrous holiday bring the wish that you never collapse suddenly, like a September bullpen team managed by Larry Rothschild, for such is the splendor and pureness of this holiday wish, which I again wish to stress is a wish not just for you but for everyone, and not just today but for forever, and from the deepest levels of your atomic composition, which may include the Higgs Boson particle, all the way to the farthest regions of outer space, where entire universes of dark matter are now being obliterated by black holes, which are joyful in their own crazy way, although it is hard for us to understand this, not only on Christmas, but any time, except for the Fourth of July, when we are too fired up with patriotic fervor to think about such things; so, in conclusion, may everything you've ever wanted be yours, and may nothing you never want to happen ever happen, for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, may the Yankees win in 2018 and may God strike me down right now if this message is in any way insincere, and damn, I hope I don't get another tie; because they're made in China... where was I? Oh, yeah... ho, ho, ho...

First, how DARE you presume to say what microbes do or do not believe in? Speciest! Or Genusist! (Whichever, I was asleep in biology class that day.)

Second, great piece.

Third, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and all other possible holiday greeting to all of you in our daffy band of Yankees fanatics. May 2018 bring us all, everything we need and want (starting with a World Series triumph).

Love you all!

What, no mention of Festivus?

After all don't we all celebrate Festivus EVREY fuvking day here, bitching and whining? What are we -- chopped liver? That's my FIRST airing of a grievance.

And what about the Maccabeats? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSJCSR4MuhU

No mention of the religion of Hank Greenberg and Sandy Koufax?

And don't get me started on new year's resolutions!

Thank you, I feel better now.

Hey..hey! What, no Kwanzaa? I just ironed my dashiki.

By the way, a holiday hint: old white guys look like idiots in a dashiki.

Thank you, el duque. Your Christmas wishes cover all my bases, and I am a better man now that I know my deteriorating microbes as well as my ignorant descendants all have your blessings.

(That was really funny. I was giggling like Muttley the whole way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uSTOHa4Im4 )
