The Holidays

A period of roughly six weeks, lasting from the end of November to some time in January. It includes a number of religious holidays, traditional celebrations, and family visits. It is generally accepted to be both the best part of the year (for people under the age of fifteen) and the worst part of the year (for people over the age of fifteen).

Includes: Thanksgiving, Hannukah, Advent, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, the Winter Solstice, St. Nick's Day, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Winter Break (for students), and a number of others.

Sometimes used (as "Happy Holidays") as a politically correct (race, creed, and nationality-neutral) phrase on cards and decorations.

Also known as "International Muzak Month" due to the unwavering propensity of shopping establishments to assault their customers' ears with instrumental version of "Do You Hear What I Hear," "Jingle Bell Rock," and "White Christmas" for the entire six-week period.

If I hear "The Little Drummer Boy" one more time, I swear I'm going to snap. I didn't mind this as a kid, but ever since I turned fifteen, boy! I hate the holidays.

holiday

When people work the 9 to 5 rather than the typical 14-16 hour workdays. An hour lunch break may be taken on these days, but is still frowned upon. Some people may catch a "holiday" and become quite unresponsive. Stay away from these people.

What are you doing on your holiday?
I think I'll take off early at 5 today. What about you?
I think I may go on a vacation for the week.
What's a 'va cation'?

holiday

Something thats impossible to enjoy at my house because every holiday ( Especially independance day) My father drinks heavily, throws his old vietnam uniform on, grabs his m-14, and fires at my neighbor who just happens to be vietnamese while he shouts " we won the war you brown cocksuckers! Burn in hell you motherfuckers!" Not the best time of the year.

my neighbor packs severe heat and i fear hes going to turn it on us someday soon.
