Happy New Year!
There's no ideological edge to that statement, is there? Because I don't mean to offend anyone who celebrates the New Year at the spring equinox or something.
Anyway, let's hope this one's a lot better than the last few have been.

It's very brave of you to reveal how much you hate the Chinese, the Japanese, the Jews, the Russian Orthodox, the Greek Orthodox, the entire array of Eastern Orthodox Christianity, the entire Islamic world, the Hindu world and pretty much most of the planet, I'd say.
You anti-Semites always reveal yourself in the end, though.
;-)
But, yeah, it's hardly as if the Gregorian calendar is non-political or universal, to put it mildly. You're kidding, I trust. People have tended to resent it as the yoke of the conquerer in a number of wars not all that long ago, such as in the 18th Century.
You Crusaders are all alike. Making arrogant jokes about your symbols of oppression. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Psst! Don't tell O'Reilly. (Ah, hell, why not? Let him go off on that one, too.)
