@tetsubo57 I also enjoy the fact that the description of God sounds a lot like Zeus... but we'll leave that conversation for another time =D

@winged20 One day...
It's a strangely communal holiday, isn't it? A giant melting pot of enigmas.

@GoodEveening Less borrowing and more appropriating. When the Romans were converted from Paganism to Christianity, they kept a lot of the dates of festivals the same so that people would feel more at ease with the change. What is now the festive season, was Saturnalia in Ancient Rome; the festival of Saturn.
In fact, a lot of scholars believe that gift-giving over Christmas is a tradition left over from Saturnalia, so huzzah for Paganism!

@curiouscookie Celebrating the Winter Solstice. The Pagans were there long before the Christians even considered 'borrowing' the date. Just as the 'borrowed' the evergreen tree, bunny and egg symbols. Not an original lot the Christians.
Who wouldn't like you?

I agree with winged 20. Also, I have a friend who doesn't like carols, but it has nothing to do with carols.... he's just a horrible singer.

@MsGoodthing1 I may or may not have just giggle-snorted tea everywhere.
Hint... I did.

I liked your face when you said "jolly." :) That gingerbread man is getting feisty with his little dance-y self!

@nerdgirlsforthewin I'm glad someone likes my face XP
I always strive to make the hippest, most... flyest dancing gingerbread men. And with that, I'll return to the present from the 90s...

@curiouscookie it's so funny you answered like that because I actually wrote out and then deleted a comment about the gingerbread man because I felt like I was talking as if I was from 1993... :)

@nerdgirlsforthewin I wish it was 1993. Well, I would be 3.. but I wish that we still had elements of the 90s in contemporary society, and not just artefacts.
