  • Whilst I don’t want to argue about whether the appreciation of people in your life should be encouraged by a celebration day, I would like to point out that holidays aren’t specific to appreciating people . They can also be for appreciating things , such as natural phenomenon.

    Personally I’d prefer winter and summer type celebrations on the equinox and solstice than Christmas and a seemingly random (in my country) public holiday at a point in the summer where it isn’t that warm anymore.




  • Okay.

    I guess in the same way you found my comment to be for no reason, I also found yours to be the same.

    IMO, your comment wasn’t really on topic. They asked a question about why it happens to them, and you replied that it never happens to you. How is that on topic?

    I did find it interesting that it doesn’t happen in the US, I was just checking that you were just making a comment about your own experience, and not to help answer the ops question. That’s cool, and I was just checking.

    I hope you have a nice weekend:)











  • I wonder if it’s calling communists ‘commies’ that some may take offense to.

    To my ear, this is sort of a slur in that I’ve only really ever heard it when some army guy is shouting ‘god damn commies’ or the like.

    Just a disclaimer, I don’t have particularly strong feelings for either a communist or capatalist structure. I think shitty people tend to gather power so most of us are just taken advantage of in either scenario.
